Fall jackets

“Top of my shopping list for the upcoming fall season is the ultra-chic Toteme wool jacket, which has a built-in scarf. It delivers the perfect casual style for day and is excellent for layering. Another classic for your trans-seasonal wardrobe is a trench coat – I adore our minimal and elegant pieces by The Row, which are exceptionally well-made and will last for many years to come. Finally, Khaite offers the best leather jackets at the moment. I can’t get enough of the brand’s firm and boxy styles, which will take you through trans-seasonal weather and beyond.”

Maxi skirts

“When it comes to one of the biggest trends of fall 2023, a maxi skirt is a piece worth investing in. I love The Row and Saint Laurent for their simple, fitted silhouettes and muted color palettes of classic black, cream and dark brown. On the other hand, a denim maxi skirt is a great way to embrace the trend in your casual wardrobe, instead of looking to your favorite pair of jeans. Khaite is one of my go-to brands for denim skirts – I love the shape of its styles and the texture of its denim.”

Ballet flats

“My favorite shoes of the season are The Row’s Mary Jane flats. They offer ultimate trans-seasonal style, and are perfect for cooler days, worn with socks, or bare legs in the summer. The crystal-embellished and mesh ballet flats by Khaite are also a must-have for the season. They are super-comfy and can be worn with anything; I love styling them with a denim maxi skirt and a simple T-shirt for a casual, chic look in the city. Finally, my all-time favorites are the Manolo Blahnik ballet flats – they are among the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever worn and are easy to dress up.”
