Things I've Bought & Loved Recently - Fall Edition

As you well know by now, Fall is my favorite season to shop and invest in pieces that I’ll get loads of wear out. I tend to do a mix of high and low pieces all year round but in Fall I really lean into investment pieces so I can have them for many seasons.

It’s also why I can write posts years later like Clothes in My Closet I Can’t Wait to Wear This Fall linking to items that are still available – because when you invest in classics you’ll have them for so much longer. And, why you see me wear a lot of the same pieces often, in a variety of different ways.

So in the latest installment of Things I’ve Bought and Loved Recently – here’s my Fall edition of what I’ve bought for the new season so far.

Things I’ve Bought and Loved Recently – Fall Edition

Sezane Ralph Jacket Fall Monochrome Outfit

These DL1961 Enora Cigarette High Rise Jeans.

DL1961 is another denim brand I used to shop and recently revisited because I loved the wash of these jeans. They don’t have a lot of stretch which is how I prefer most of my denim and they hit right below my ankle. I think they are a good jean you can easily dress up. I bought them in a size 28.

This wool oversized blazer jacket.

The new Sezane Ralph Jacket is so good. Part outerwear, part blazer and so chic. Wearing a size 6. 

Sezane Tomboy Shirt | Things I've Bought & Loved Recently - Fall Edition

Sezane Tomboy shirt

I’ve owned the Sezane Tomboy shirt for 5+ years so mine had seen quiet a bit of wear. I bought a fresh one in one size larger (size 10) so it was a bit more oversized this time.

Monochromatic Fall Outfit | Things I've Bought & Loved Recently - Fall Edition

Classic crewneck sweater

I am very into charcoal gray this season and so I loved the look of this oversized, classic crewneck sweater. Wearing a size M.

Pictured styled with the DL1961 Enora Cigarette High Rise Jeans again.

Wool charcoal jacket 

I own this blazer-jacket from Sezane in the beautiful navy and love the fit of it so when I saw the new wool charcoal drop as part of the Fall Arrivals, I snagged it right away. Wearing a size 6.

Me + Em Bomber Jacket

This sculptural wool bomber jacket from Me + Em*. Wearing an 8. 

Seen styled with these shoes, these jeans (size 27) and this hat.

J.Crew Slip Dress | Things I've Bought & Loved Recently - Fall Edition

I absolutely loved shooting this beautiful, textured midi dress by Me + Em* in Paris for this collaboration. I can’t wait for my next occasion to wear it again! Wearing a size 8.

This fun and cozy sweater*

I’ll be pulling back out again around the holidays. Size M.

Agolde Vintage High Rise Boot Jeans

These Agolde Vintage High Rise Boot Jeans.

Based on how these looked on the model I was expecting a different jean that was more ankle length but the model must have been very tall! Regardless, I actually like how on trend this style looks on me – more of a 90s jean. Wearing a size 28.

Styled with this jacket in size M.

Fall Neutral Outfit | Things in My Closet I Can't Wait to Wear This Fall

This Sezane Sweater (runs big – wearing a S) I own in two colors now and these off white jeans. 

Chocolate Brown Outfit | Things in My Closet I Can't Wait to Wear This Fall

Chocolate brown sweater and trousers

Chocolate brown is one of my favorite trends for fall this year and I’ve already picked up this sweater (size M) and these trousers (size 28 but size up if you’re in between sizes) in the shade.

This whole look as well. 

& Other Stories Coat | Things in My Closet I Can't Wait to Wear This Fall

This & Other Stories coat I just got in charcoal gray*.

They do such good coats! I size down to a Small in nearly every style I own from them. I already owned this coat in both black and navy as seen above. They are hands down my most worn Fall and Winter Coats. I can’t wait to wear the gray once cooler weather arrives!

Paige Straight Leg Jeans

These Paige Sarah Straight Ankle Jeans.

It had been a long time since I bought a pair of Paige denim but these are great. The denim is lightweight with a bit of stretch and some light distressing and casual fading. They hit perfectly at my ankle and I like the slimming effect they have.

Agolde Parker High Waist Crop Relaxed Straight Leg Jeans

These Agolde Parker High Waist Crop Relaxed Straight Leg Jeans.

I love lighter wash denim as transitional denim. Perfect for Spring into Summer and Summer into Fall. This pair by Agolde are a great example of how when a jean does not look in person like it does on the model. I like this pair with its slight distressing for casual looks.

    Hi Meghan! Love this post. Wondering if you have a recommendation for no-show socks to wear with low profile white sneakers? (I just bought the Sam Edelman “Ethyl” style.) Thanks!!

    I absolutely love this post! How serendipitous that I was looking for a black and white scarf and the main photo has the scarf I’m looking for! Thanks so much for sharing such amazing finds.

    I’m absolutely loving EVERYTHING. The cinnamon slip dress is getting added to my cart. Brown is really having a moment! I’ll be saving this as a reference, I’m currently shifting to a more classic style myself. I grabbed a few things from mango recently as well! Thanks for all of this!!

    The DL1961 Enora jeans are very flattering! I am a fan of their Mara jeans style but I’d love to try these after seeing your pictures.
