Sporty Sweet

Classic navy nylon track shorts with a white racing stripe are sharply contrasted with a frilly, pointelle-knit top complete with tiny satin bows. It perfectly balances the hyper-feminine aesthetic with comfortable, athletic staples for an easy everyday fit.

Best sporty feminine outfits work when athletic staples meet a softer detail, like a frilly knit or a tiny bow. I love the contrast between navy track shorts and the PEARL JACQUARD sweatshirt and jersey pieces, with adidas Sambae shoes and lululemon Hotty Hot shorts in the mix.

What Goes to Work

The tote, the belt, the scarf and the small things that make a Tuesday feel better.

Home, for the Colder Months

Lamps, candlesticks, vessels and one good throw, for when it's dark by six.

Home Gifts for Mom

Home gifts for mom should suit the house everyone already wants to spend holidays in. Scented terracotta from Santa Maria Novella, animal motif pillows and a table set with painted porcelain all fit the bill. This edit is for the mother who lights candles at the same hour every evening and notices when a pillow is new.

Ice Blue and Cherry Red Outfits

Pale ice blue with a proper cherry red is the unexpected fall pairing I keep coming back to. Soft blue knits, red dresses and skirts, and red shoes and bags to finish.

The New Rules of Denim for 2026

Denim has split into two camps, rigid heavy jeans that look like they could survive anything and softer, slouchier shapes that sit low on the hip. Both are a reaction against the stretchy skinny jean that defined the previous decade, and both are now fully mainstream. This edit follows Moda Operandi's denim guide, covering the jeans themselves and what to wear with them.

Purple and Red Outfits to Try This Fall

Royal purple and cherry red stopped reading as a clash somewhere around New York Fashion Week. These four outfits pair the two shades, from a purple knit over a red pleated skirt to a red leather bomber with purple corduroy. Each look leaves room for black, brown and denim, so none of it feels like a costume.
