25 Cool Finds I'm Obsessing Over Right Now

Welcome to the Shopping List series, a Who What Wear column where senior editor Kristen Nichols highlights the items that she has her eye on at the moment—from affordable finds to investment buys.

As a fashion editor, I constantly have my eye on the latest emerging brands, trends that are gaining traction, and new items that are dropping at retailers. It's my job to bring you the coolest finds and special pieces I think deserve a place in your wardrobe, which is why I'm rounding up all of them here in a column dedicated to the pieces I would personally put my money behind.

I also have a specific take on style that blends my penchant for minimalism on some days and maximalism on others, so you'll find styles across the board here. The common thread? A mindset for supporting amazing design talent and only investing in pieces I plan on wearing for years to come. Here, let me take you on a virtual shopping trip, on which I'll highlight all of the pieces I think are worthy of adding to your cart.

Tamara Mellon teamed up with celebrity stylist Karla Welch on an amazing capsule of shoes that are designed to wear anywhere, but they would suggest wearing them to the polls to vote. This pair, worn by TyLynn Nguyen in the photo above, caught my eye—the camel shade is a great alternative to a classic black boot.

Chocolate brown is one of the key colors to own this fall.

The color of the season.

The cutest bag there ever was.

My jumpsuit addiction is only growing, and this style from Frankie Shop is simply perfect.

This sweatsuit set is calling my name. How chic is the matching polo top? Shop the matching Jersey Top ($125).

Couldn't be more excited about the return of the knit dress.

I've wanted this bag since the '90s tbh.

Net-a-Porter's mentorship program, The Vanguard, always spots the coolest fashion designers right before they're about to be big. Artclub is part of its 2020 program, so you know it's a brand to have your eye on.

I bought a leather trench last year and it's easily my most-worn piece of outerwear. This season, I have my eye on this faux-croc version.

Leave it to Bottega Veneta to design my favorite heels of 2020.

Merlette is my go-to brand for cool, flowy dresses. This style is exactly what I want to add to my fall wardrobe to wear with boots.

Thought we were done with jumpsuits here? Definitely not.

Okay, Staud. Many thanks for the perfect puffer.

Dream top.

This piece from Lirika Matoshi instantly jumped to the top of my must-buy list.

Here's a piece I already own and have been wearing on repeat. Bagatiba always has the most amazing jewelry, and I love that this piece is a cool alternative to my everyday chain necklace.

Sami Miro's stunning sustainable pieces just launched on FWRD. These will definitely sell out.

This sweater set simply takes sweater sets to the next level.

My addiction to leather pieces is going strong.

I just ordered these latex leggings and can't wait to replicate some of the best F/W 20 runway looks with them.

Who else is ready for sweater dresses? I'd style this one with this season's second-skin thigh-high boots.

I'm addicted to sunglasses and have been looking for a new shape. I think these are the ones I'll be living in.

The wear-with-anything knit I'll be slipping into all fall.

Crushing on all things Anna October right now.
