Most Coveted is a bi-weekly shopping series sharing our editors’ curation of the must-know items they can’t stop thinking about

I have a rule of thumb when it comes to fashion: Choose versatile pieces that go with multiple outfits. This method has worked for me for years, but somewhere along the way, I became complacent with my styling. So I’ve decided to throw caution to the wind with my upcoming purchases.

This season, I’m shopping for outfits rather than just clothes. This will not only help my style evolve but also ensure I actually wear the pieces in my wardrobe. It all comes down to looking for pieces that will go well together, ideally from the same retailer or brand so the outfits are ready-made. Below, I’ve created the perfect transitional wardrobe with just a few pieces, including a cozy knit ensemble courtesy of Lou Lou Studio, a streamlined look featuring layered staples, and a few bright, colorful pieces for a color-blocking moment. Keep scrolling for the outfits I’ve carefully curated for the colder season.
