Just What I Needed
Some purchases barely make it into your closet before they’re back on your body. That’s the idea this week: under-the-radar cashmere from Colori, nostalgic charm with a mischievous streak from The Great, and your favorite Le Jean denim in a fresh fall crop. Alix of Bohemia answers the call for a fun top to wear out, while Paper Label delivers the basics—and the not-so-basics—you’ll keep reaching for. Plenty of personality, plenty of reasons to wear them again. Just what you needed.
Colori
Colori has quietly become our most-worn cashmere—and we suspect it’s about to become yours. Made with beautiful Italian Cariaggi cashmere, these sweaters combine easy shapes, thoughtful proportions and quality that holds up to a very busy rotation. With more than 100 colors to choose from, we follow our heads toward the enduring neutrals and our hearts straight to the more emotional colors. Consider this your introduction to a future favorite.
The Great
The Great has a knack for making getting dressed feel like play. Familiar favorites return with a wink: polka dots, velour stripes, a crochet-trimmed collar, a western fleece that reverses to quilting. Then comes the fun of putting them together—stripes with dots, a little prairie with a little sport, combinations that somehow make perfect sense. We happily took our cues from that carefree approach. And each piece is just as compelling on its own, ready to mix into your wardrobe and become an old favorite in very little time.
Practical and Playful
A dress that does it all
Le Jean
We keep reaching for Le Jean, and this fall’s arrivals are doing nothing to break the habit. The baby bootcut and utility soft barrel return in fresh versions, alongside new shapes ready to join the rotation. Rich autumn colors, great washes, and that reliably flattering, ridiculously comfortable fit give us plenty to work with—and plenty of reasons to get dressed. Fall versions of our favorite things. No, we’re not getting tired of this.
Alix of Bohemia
“I need a fun top.” We know just where to start. Alix of Bohemia brings expressive prints, beautiful embroidery and a little sleeve drama to pieces that make your favorite jeans feel ready for a night out. Look closer and there’s even more to love: a story behind the pattern, skilled people behind the details, and care that carries through from design to making. Something special to wear, with substance behind the charm. You bring the plans.
Paper Label
Finally. The Lisa Long Sleeve Tee is back in black and white, and we’re welcoming it with open arms. Paper Label makes the no-nonsense pieces we depend on: great quality, easy to wear, and sorely missed when we can’t get more. Their cotton sweaters wear beautifully and come at a price we love; a few more outspoken arrivals bring distinctive shapes and details to the everyday rotation. From indispensable layers to pieces that get a little more attention, these clothes earn their keep.
