Happy Wednesday! It’s time for our weekly installment of new arrivals. In case you’re unfamiliar, every week, I search high and low to find the best designer and affordable pieces from your favorite brands—all of which just hit stores—so that you can be the first of your friends to wear them. After all, if you’re going to buy something, why not beat everyone else to it?

It’s somehow already mid-December and we are busy, folks. But that doesn’t mean new arrivals should be missed out on, so per usual, I curated them for you. And it’s the last new arrivals edition of the year, so it’s extra special. 

As is often the case in December, the new arrivals sections are filled with faux fur, velvet, cashmere, and sequins, and you won’t find me complaining about it. You may still have gifts to buy for loved ones, but there’s no harm in shopping for a gift or two for yourself while you’re at it.

For this week’s edition, I headed over to Shopbop, Net-a-Porter, Reformation, Zara, Revolve, and more to find the best newness the internet has to offer. Scroll to shop this week’s epic new-in finds, and be sure to check back on the first Wednesday of January for another fresh batch of new arrivals.

Not all sequin skirts are created equal. This one gets a gold star.

Anyone else a sucker for plissé pleats? 

This bag is perfect in every sense of the word.

As far as holiday shoes go, these are my goal.

I really want to wear this with those velvet platforms I just told you about.

The latest drop from Elsa Hosk’s brand is coziness at its chicest.

An “ugly” Christmas sweater that actually isn’t ugly at all.

The coolest velvet skirt of the season.

The more pretty tops the merrier.

A fluffy pink cloud sweater is what your wardrobe has been missing.

Don’t wear this if you’ll need a jacket—it’s too beautiful to cover up.

The rare puffer that can actually be dressed up or down.

Festive, fun, and fancy.

Only order this if you want your wardrobe to be cooler.

I’ve never ordered a pair of socks so fast.

It’s somehow both adorable and elegant.

I thought I had enough jackets—until I came across this.

It’s understandable that this fun skirt is selling out.

Yet another Loewe bag to add to the wish list.

This makes my eyes happy.

I’m choosing to embrace Barbiecore instead of ignoring it.

Looks like real leather to me (but it’s not).

I don’t ski but I’d gladly lodge in this.

I love that they added a chain strap here.

I’m tempted to build an entire NYE outfit around these earrings.

Because you deserve a treat.

Like your favorite early-2000s pants, but much cooler.

You don’t have to agree, but I think they’re cool.

Ganni just made white boots feel fresh again.
