31 Items Our Editors Loved This Month

The weather in October is unpredictable, with a sudden return to summer warmth and then a cool autumn breeze. We are forced to wear oversized coats and sunglasses.

Our editors have embraced the fall transition with a variety of footwear options, including knee-high boots decorated in silver harnesses and cozy slippers. This month they were also drawn to statement lingerie, including a pink silk corset, with pearl straps and a cheeky bralette, as well as a matching black-cat set. Also, we can’t get over cute accessories like heart-shaped puffy bags, Halloween phone ornaments, and emotional support water bottle. Of course, you can’t forget the classics. Think gold hoops or timeless LBDs.

Extreme Cashmere N.280 Bi, $700, available here (one size): I’m afraid of cashmere because, as I admit, I am lazy with my laundry and don’t always follow the instructions for garment care. It’s not great, I admit. This means that if I see a garment with the label “machine washable”, my ears perk up. Extreme Cashmere from the Netherlands is an extremely chic (sorry!) cashmere label that tucks in a very simple-to-follow product care label to every one of their knit products. Founder Saskia Dijkstra styled me in an oversized rounded-neck cardigan herself, tucking and scrunching up in all the right places, and I have never felt cooler (or cozier!).” —Ana Colón, Deputy Editor
