It’s officially the holiday season and that explains why shopping over the past month has been so much fun. As is the case every November, brands really step things up around the holidays and release some of their most exciting offerings of the year, and I’ve been taking copious notes.
November’s roundup of the coolest things I’ve seen this month is comprised of 15 finds that are too good not to share. That said, it’s not all fancy pieces that you’ll wear to holiday parties and holiday parties alone. There are great finds for everyday wear too. Among the coolest things of the month this month are special pieces from Zara, Miu Miu, and Toteme, to name a few. So if you’re as in the mood to shop as much as I am (thanks to Black Friday and Cyber Monday taking over my brain), scroll to find out which items stood out to me out of the thousands I’ve come across over the past 30 days.
Part of Toteme’s evening capsule at Net-a-Porter, this tuxedo shirt is a fresh alternative to a basic white button-down. Complete with a pearl button and wavy pleated bib, it’s versatile enough to wear to a special event or the office.
This $100 matching set is comfortable enough to lounge in and chic enough to wear out on the town. The plissé pleats make it look far more expensive than it is, and the pieces can easily be mixed and matched with the rest of your wardrobe. (Ahh, the beauty of a matching set).
As you can see by the opening photo, this stunning top is practically a piece of art. Between the gauzy gold fabric and thick velvet ties, it’s a dramatic piece that’s the definition of compliment bait.
I haven’t been able to stop thinking about this simple Gucci bag since I first came across it. What I like the most is that its slim shape makes it so packable and that the iconic GG logo goes with everything.
Elsa Hosk’s line with Revolve just keeps getting better. I was particularly drawn to this cool jacket, in the acid green hue that was all over the S/S 23 runways. It already sold out in black, so I wouldn’t delay if I were you.
Miu Miu turned the year’s It shoes into a bejeweled masterpiece and if you choose to splurge on them, your wardrobe will never be the same. I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait to see these beauties on Instagram.
I haven’t come across a faux-leather blazer this good in a while—maybe ever. It looks like genuine leather, and the oversized fit makes it look fresh, as it’s a trend that’s been around for several seasons at this point.
Santa Brands has really taken off this year, thanks to the magpie vibe in fashion as of late. This skirt is fun and festive, and actually quite easy to style. I’d pair it with an oversize white button-down and knee-high boots.
I love a dress that can pass for a holiday dress but that you could also get away with wearing in the summer. The fact that this fun little number is only $40 makes it even more of a great buy.
Yes another Pixie Market top to add to my wish list. The subtle sparkle on this white tank would look lovely beneath a blazer. (Might I suggest the aforementioned faux leather one?)
It seems like it’s every day lately that I find something I want from J.Crew. These fluffy mules are currently at the top of my list. I’m already manifesting the numerous outfits that I’ll wear with them.
Reformation is never lacking in cool going-out tops, and this is the latest that I predict is on its way to selling out. Wear it with anything from jeans to a leather mini skirt.
Bernadette can always be counted on for creating unique pieces that are pretty without trying too hard. The brand just dropped some new things and this bow-adorned skirt caught my eye because it’s perfect.
If you just want an easy black top that’s also very eye-catching and cool, this is the one I recommend ordering. It’s getting cold out there but thanks to the halter neckline, it’ll also look interesting under a jacket. (This time of year, that’s something I look for in a top.)
Last but not least, these gorgeous Bottega pumps. Trust be told, I wasn’t convinced when I first saw them but then Margot Robbie wore them with jeans and a blazer and I realized that they’re actually incredible.
