My mother and I talk shopping quite often. Given my role as a fashion editor and her heightened interest in style, she’s often intrigued with the trends and specific items I’m into each season. And while we certainly have our disagreements (that’s for sure), we often love many of the same fashion pieces—especially when it comes to elevated basics and modern staples. I recently showed her some fall items I’ve been particularly into while doing market research at Nordstrom, H&M, and Amazon (three stores she shops at). She then gave a thumbs-up if she liked the piece. In the end, there were 39 items we agreed on.
Intrigued? Keep scrolling to check out a smattering of top-notch fall items, separated by category, including sweaters, dresses, jackets, shoes, tops, and jeans. Go on—you just might find a piece or two worth adding to your fall rotation.
