To know me is to know I'm a J.Crew stan first and a human second. Over the last few months, it feels like every day, I'm spending hours on the American retailer, combing through its new arrivals section and on-sale items. I've converted (or... willingly forced) my boyfriend, sister, and closest friends to join the ranks of the stylish site's followers. And no, before you ask, I don't regret it at all.
Now that fall is around the corner, the pressure is on to shop smartly and responsibly, keeping chic, elevated basics and versatile pieces at the front of my mind for my upcoming chilly-weather wardrobe. Even though I'd low-key buy anything that women's creative director Olympia Gayot makes, I'm focusing on wearability for the rest of the year—opting for timeless options like straight-leg jeans, cashmere pull-overs, and leather shoes to carry me through the rest of the season.
Sound enticing? Scroll for more. Below, shop 32 of the cant-miss J.Crew finds of the fall that are actually worth the money.
