33 Things I Would Buy for Fall If I Abandoned Self-Control

I consider myself relatively measured in what I add to my closet. I typically give each piece careful consideration, weighing its longevity and how often I’ll be able to wear the new item. Given the chance, though, I wouldn’t mind abandoning self-control and filling my shopping cart with every single piece sitting on my wish list.
For fall, that includes a mix of beautiful new arrivals I’ve been eyeing for the season, as well as some investment-worthy jewelry and items I’ve been thinking about for a long time. At the top of my list? Jessica McCormack’s jaw-dropping diamond earrings, a gorgeous robin's-egg blue suede pencil skirt (impractical but stunning), leather riding boots finished with top-stitching, an equestrian leather jacket, and the list goes on. Ahead, I’m sharing the top investment buys on my radar for fall 2025.
