I've Tried, But I Just Can't Stop Thinking About These Fall Ref and Mango Finds

Since I look at clothes pretty much all day, every day, being able to resist pretty things is practically an essential part of my job description. If I couldn't, well, my paycheck would never actually reach my bank account. There are far too many temptations in the way. With that in mind, when I'm categorically unable to say no and mean it, the pieces causing this internal battle have to be good. Trust me. I'm not giving in for just anything. 

Right now, there are really only two brands swirling around my mind with no intention of leaving and no one exactly kicking them out: Mango and Reformation. That's because I spent a few too many hours today scrolling through both retailers' fall collections and was thoroughly impressed with what I found. From viral-worthy dresses to the prettiest boots you'll see, like, ever, find a little bit of everything your fall wardrobe's been craving below from Reformation and Mango. At least, I know I did. 

These studded jeans don't just live rent-free in my brain. I actually pay them to stay there. 

If it has a bubble hem, I want it. No exceptions.

Is that a double-breasted blazer? No, it's a triple-breasted blazer, therefore it's better. 

I've tried on this vest in black, and I nearly had to have Reformation rip it off me in order to get me to part ways with it. I like the ivory even better. 

If you want The Row's Lady Napa Boots but don't have nearly $2000 to spend on them, dare I suggest these that cost about a quarter as much? 

A scarf attached to a coat? Count me in. 

I shouldn't have to sell you on the power of a great, simple belt. 

These brown jeans feel so unexpected and cool for fall. I think I need them.

Alone, this dress could be worn to a country club, and with sheer black tights and some sharp pumps, an all-night rendezvous in Paris. That's called versatility. 

I'm low-key obsessed with all things lacy and black. But can you really blame me? 

The perfect knit to throw over your shoulders with a trench, a T-shirt, and jeans this fall. 

You'd be surprised as to how much this bag fits. 

Say no to boring ol' tanks in 2024. I'm only kidding since I love a classic tank, but don't be afraid to venture elsewhere to parts that are a little bit unknown and daring. 

Since I found these a few days ago, I've sent them to everyone I know. It is my birthday month after all. 

Fall 2023's coolest styling piece.

After the rain we've been having in NYC so far this season, you're going to need one of these. 

A cashmere sweater this soft and luxurious should be illegal. 

I love the idea of styling these with a dress. If you know, you know.

The more sculpted the minidress, the more I want it. 

I'm calling this autumn "hot-pants fall." What do you think?
