EDITOR'S NOTE
Fashion You’ll Actually Wear Week is in full swing, temperatures are dropping, and I’m finally getting into Nora Ephron Fall. Today I’m covering more throw-on-and-go pieces that’ll make picking out an outfit an afterthought. Plus, a couple of things I’ve recently added to my rotation that are equal parts cozy and functional:
A cookbook preorder for easy meal prep.
These sweatpants that are cute enough to wear out.
Some Uggs that are about to sell out.

Universal Thread’s Button-Front Sweater Vest
A soft tank that can be worn on its own or as a base layer.
One of our editor’s best finds from Fashion You’ll Actually Wear Week? This sweater-tank from Target. It’s the perfect piece for this time of year because it’ll serve as a warm base layer in the morning, but won’t be stifling by the afternoon. Pick from charcoal gray or tan…or both because it’s only $22. Buy it before it sells out.
Three Totally Random Things
Check out three pieces we’re loving from Fashion You’ll Actually Wear Week:
Hill House Home Lila Nap Dress
Wear this mini dress with tights and boots.
A&F Sloane Tailored Wide-Leg Pant
The $90 trousers our editors turn to year after year.
Adidas Breaknet Sneakers
An affordable sneaker option if you’re looking to add some color to your wardrobe.
Reads
Lovely One by Ketanji Brown Jackson
The story: This is not your typical political memoir. In Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson’s debut memoir, she covers her career that began in a law office and eventually led to her becoming the first Black woman appointed to the Supreme Court (though, fun fact, she also considered becoming a Broadway actress). Jackson discusses how she navigates motherhood in such a high-level job (to put it lightly) and her legacy as the granddaughter of small business owners in the segregated South. Don't miss this one.
