Fashionista's September Shopping List: 28 Items Our Editors Love

As fashion month comes to a close after keeping us on the edge of our seats during four exciting weeks in New York, London, Milan and Paris, plenty of stylish pieces ushering in the fall season caught team Fashionista's eyes this September. To put it lightly, clothes and accessories have definitely been on our minds this month.

We're ready to wrap ourselves up in cozy cashmere sweaters and celebrate the return of fall footwear with tall suede boots and fuzzy mini boots. Bows are (rightfully) still trending among the team as we embraced the classic style in hair accessories, bags, a burgundy bow-back gown and even a dog-walking kit. We've also fallen for a variety of dresses perfect for any occasion from floral slips to tie dye caftans to leather minis.

Keep scrolling to see (and shop) all of our September stand-outs.

Larroudé x Jonathan Cohen Ivy Flat Mule In Black Leather, $300, available here: "I can't accurately convey how obsessed I am with this collaboration between Jonathan Cohen and Larroudé — specifically, these slides boasting a black leather floral motif inspired by the look the designer created for Lupita Nyong'o at the Mexico premiere of 'Black Panther: Wakanda Forever' (which has now found its way into the main collections)." —Ana Colón, Deputy Editor

Lazy Oaf Happy Sad Lace Up Ballet Sneaker, £110 ($136), available here: "I love Lazy Oaf's sportier version of Simone Rocha's ballet sneakers, and although they sold out nearly instantly, both my feet and I will be waiting patiently for a restock." —Liza Sokol, Sr. Audience Development Manager

Reformation Porter Cropped Jacket in Cream, $348, available here (sizes XS-XL): "Since the rise of Totême's scarf jacket, I've been intrigued by the notion of this type of combo cozy garment, and I love Reformation's tailored, slightly cropped take on it. Plus, the scarf is detachable, so it can be removed for less chilly days." —Stephanie Saltzman, Beauty Director

Wild One X HVN Collar Walk Kit, $98, available here: "I'm clearly a sucker for a good collaboration (and bows) so I simply couldn't resist this HVN collection decorated with the designer's quaint bow print — now, I can't stop thinking about getting a frock to match my fur baby." —Savannah Sitton, Contributing Market Editor

K.ngsley R3 Tank, $195 $137, available here (sizes XS-XL): "This is exactly the kind of tank top I love. Thanks to its statement cutouts, this is immediately elevated from a basic tank, which means it can add a lot of pizzazz to transitional outfits. Pair this with some leather pants or cool trousers and an oversized blazer for a fun look." —Andrea Bossi, Staff Writer

Minnie Rose Cashmere Frayed Edge Cropped Crew Sweater, $225, available here (sizes XS-XL): "Yes, there has been the occasional chill in the air this month, but it seems to go right back to 80 degrees out of nowhere most days. That's why this super light sweater from Minnie Rose has been my go-to piece. The cashmere is cozy, but thin enough that you won't break a sweat draping it over your shoulders for those 'just-in-case' days." —Brooke Frischer, Staff Writer

Self-Portrait Black Bonded Crepe Midi Dress, $585, available here (sizes 0-12): "This dress looks like it's been plucked straight from my dreams of becoming a Meredith Blake lookalike. Plus, the jewels adorning the square neckline are like the icing on top of a very stylish cake." —Catie Pusateri, Contributing Writer

Madewell Greta Ballet Flats, $98, available here: "These perfect brown shoes are feeding into my current obsession of ballet flats. Something about them is so sleek, yet can be worn with anything from vintage jeans to skirts." —Olivia Novato, Contributing Writer

J.Crew Louisa Lady Jacket in Plaid English Wool, $328, available here (sizes 000-24): "I love the cut, shape and crop of J.Crew's Louisa jacket, and the plaid English wool print feels very Princess-Diana-spending-the-fall-in-the-countryside — which is the vibe I'm going for." —Ana

Dagne Dover Micha Neoprene Crossbody, $110, available here: "This is my ideal, small but seemingly bottomless, running around town bag. It has a bunch of different pockets, is water-resistant because of the neoprene, actually fits crossbody-style on my plus-size body and matches everything (in my closet, at least.)" —Liza

Loeffler Randall Cacao Tall Boot, $695, available here: "It's officially boot season, and I love the combination of the low heel and light-brown suede of this pair. And since they're so versatile, I can think of plenty of different ways to wear them: First up, with a cozy sweater dress — and then, once it gets colder, for an extra layer of warmth beneath jeans or trousers." —Stephanie

Brandon Blackwood Mini Duffle, $425, available here: "The New York native designer just dropped his Fall 2023 collection and, as a surprise to no one, it's brimming with perfectly on-trend pieces. Case in point: This mini duffle shape is undoubtedly one of the leading handbag silhouettes right now and nothing welcomes fall more than a sleek python print." —Savannah

Hutch Adaleigh Strapless High-Low Gown, $319, available here (sizes 0-14): "When I saw this dress on the rack, I couldn't let the sight of it go. The deep mauve-y color is simply beautiful, and so is its voluminous shape and the bow accent that sits on the back. Talk about an ideal wedding guest dress or gala gown — plus, it has pockets!" —Andrea

Jennifer Behr Naples Satin Bow Hair Clip, $105, available here: "There was not a day I did not wear this bow from Jennifer Behr during New York Fashion Week. All I can remember is that one day bows took over my consciousness and I haven't questioned it once. How could I when these beautiful accessories keep popping up in my life?" —Brooke

Vince Camuto Evangee Boot, $239, available here: "Although I wear black boots year-round, I've fallen in love with cranberry-colored knee-high boots just in time to match autumn's changing leaves. This pair from Vince Camuto also comes in wide calf sizes, so no squeezing into boots this year." —Catie

Skims Cotton Jersey T-Shirt, $48, available here (sizes XXS-4X): "This top comes in about a dozen different colors and is the ideal cut to wear all the time. You can wear it out to dinner with tons of cute accessories or keep things casual with a loungewear moment. Plus, in classic Skims fashion, the top couldn't be comfier." —Olivia

Tamara Malas Gigi Slip Dress in Black Floral, $205, available here (sizes 2-36): "The floral embroidery all over this breezy, cotton slip dress is a fun, more botanical option compared to standard floral prints, and really — can you ever go wrong with black, flowers or slip dresses?" —Liza

Bluebella x Ashley Williams Kitten Print Luxury Satin Crop Cami and Short Set, $100, available here (sizes XXS-2XL): "Cozy season calls for cute pajamas and I think this adorable kitten print speaks for itself, but if you're looking for something more edgy, the collection (a collaboration between inclusive intimates brand Bluebella and cool-girl designer Ashley Williams) also includes a tribal-tattoo print in hot pink that's just as swoon-worthy." —Savannah

Kangol Tropic Spitfire, $60, available here: "This is not an exaggeration: I have not worn this one day without getting complimented. This newsboy-style hat is not only comfortable on my head thanks to its stretchy headband, but it adds a flair to just about every outfit. The light green color pairs with everything from t-shirts and jeans to button-ups. Plus, you can wear it backwards for a beret-style flair." —Andrea

Lele Sadoughi Jet Velvet Alice Headband, $65, available here: "I've been very influenced by the several celebrities donning Blair Waldorf-esque headbands recently, so I had to have my own for New York Fashion Week. The best part about this sleek and super chic accessory from Lele Sadoughi is that it doesn't move (in an updo or down) like most headbands I've tried. And for my migraine girlies, it doesn't squeeze your head either." —Brooke

Reformation Bailey Knit Top in Typical Girls, $78, available here (sizes XS-XL): "I could write a whole book about how much I love women, but why not just wear this top instead? The vintage graphics instantly caught my eye and it's the perfect print to shake up my neutrals-filled wardrobe." —Catie

This is J Tie Dye Caftan, $99 CAD ($74), available here (sizes XS-XXL): "This caftan is great because it is super soft and has pockets and a cute tie dye print. The arm holes are cut low, and that level of freedom and mobility and comfort is extra important when you're rotting on the couch all day." —Liza

8 Other Reasons x Gabbriette Venus Choker, $96, available here: "After making a splash at this year's NYFW, rising 'It'-girl Gabbriette can do no wrong in my eyes — at least when it comes to her style and cooking recipes. So, of course I fell in love with this regal neck candy from the model's recent collab with the affordable accessories brand." —Savannah

Reformation Garrett Cashmere Cropped Turtleneck, $278, available here (sizes XS-XL): "When I think about why I love sweater weather, I think about staple pieces like this cozy cashmere number from Reformation. Plus, I love a cropped and relaxed sweater in a bold, fall color." —Andrea

Roam Mini Boosh Boots in Faux Shearling, $165, available here: "My gut is telling me that the inside-out shearling boot will be trending this winter. I really love this pair from Roam — the short height is adorable and I love that there's a zipper down the side for easy dressing. Plus, the cotton fleece lining makes for an extra cozy fit." —Brooke

Merrell Moab Speed Zip GORE-TEX® 1TRL, $200 $75, available here: "In favor of the 'wrong shoe theory' simply because comfort is key in my world, I was inspired to snag a pair of Merrell's (by Sandy Liang, who wore the brand on her wedding day) and I'm so glad I was influenced because these are the comfiest (and chicest) sneakers in my rotation at the moment (and as a runner that's saying a lot)." —Savannah

Toccin Gale Faux Leather Mini Dress, $595, available here (sizes 0-14): "This dress is darling... but also kind of sexy. This is the kind of piece that's necessary to have in the arsenal: Something to quickly throw on when in a rush but want to look fabulous. Pair this with a beret and some knee-high boots for a full look." —Andrea

Sandy Liang Roma Bag, $395, available here: "While I wait for the oversized satin bow bags from Sandy Liang's Spring 2024 collection to become available, I'll be fawning over the Roma Bag — a just-as-cute, more tote-like option for bow-lovers. But in all honesty, I'll be fawning over every Liang design." —Brooke
