The triangle shape is what makes me fall bonkers in love with this dreamily soft pure wool scarf; obviously it’ll look stylish around your neck, but just imagine it tied over your hair, like an old Hollywood star. And in that trending lipstick red hue — I die. — Andrea Gale, Associate Editor

A comfy yet chic sneaker is one of my musts, and I love the denim finish on this pair of Nikes; it’s surprising in the best way, and, much like my favorite jeans, neutral enough to pair with all sorts of looks.

I’ve been on the hunt for the perfect oversized bomber jacket, and I’m happy to report that I’ve finally found it (thank you, The Frankie Shop). This one hits all the right notes: It’s wonderfully oversized, supple rather than stiff, and comes in my favorite color (army green, the best goes-with-everything neutral IMO). I love how it looks zipped up all the way to the top, and the pockets are nice and secure, thanks to the snap-closure buttons. – Adeline Duff, Senior Editor

It’s safe to assume that this cashmere sweater is quite literally going to become the MVP of my winter wardrobe.
