30 Winter Fashion Items Worth Buying, From Alaïa to Zara

Most Wanted is a weekly series in which one editor, staffer, or influencer shares their top 30 must-haves or current wish-list items.When I first heard a clip of Marie Claire editor in chief Nikki Ogunnaike on Liv Perez's podcast saying she had a case of the "shoppies", a lightbulb went off in my brain. Finally, there was word to describe the particular feeling that we get in as fashion people where we're suddenly hungry to devour everything in our shopping carts. For me, the feeling came on all of a sudden—I've not bought anything fashion related for nearly five months while I was redirecting my shopping budget towards running-related gear (it turns out between race-day sneakers and a Garmin, training for a marathon isn't cheap!).Now that we've arrived at late fall, there's so much to sho...

Celebrity Style: Designer Pieces Stars Will Wear This Holiday Season

I had one of those weirdly psychic fashion moments while working on this article. I was sitting at my desk, planning this story, thinking about who to include, and as I narrowed in on the resurgence of your favorite Tory Burch flats, Maude Apatow immediately came to mind. I mean, it just made sense—her quietly elegant, downtown-girl style fits the shoe perfectly. I typed it into my notes, kept working, and then—literally that same day—she wore them. I saw the photo, audibly gasped, and immediately slacked my coworkers. So, yes, I take this little series of my celebrity style predictions very seriously, and you most definitely should too.The holiday season is prime time for celebrity fashion watching. Everyone’s out—going to premieres, hopping between cities, attending charity galas, hostin...

7 shoes that reveal more about your social class than you realize

I was at a friend's birthday party last year when someone made a comment about another guest's sneakers. Nothing mean, just an observation. But it got me thinking about how much we communicate through what we put on our feet. Shoes are weird, right? We spend money on them, we judge people by them, and somehow they've become these little billboards announcing where we stand in the social hierarchy. Today, I want to explore seven types of shoes that say more about social class than most people realize. Not to judge anyone, but because understanding these signals helps us navigate the world a bit more consciously. 1) Pristine white sneakers Walk through any upscale neighborhood and you'll spot them: perfectly clean white sneakers that look like they've never touched actual pavement. Here's th...

A Fashion Editor’s Gift Picks From Saks Fifth Avenue

With the 2025 Saks holiday light show opening on November 24 in New York City, the retailer is firmly top of mind for holiday gifting. When it comes to gifts, I always return to one category: little luxuries. They're small indulgences that feel elevated, thoughtful, and special.Many of the items below are pieces I already own—and love—so consider this a curated list of things I'd be thrilled to receive myself, including a plush bathrobe, a Dior Lip Oil, and the perfect pair of gold hoops. For fragrance lovers, you can't go wrong with cult favorites like Delina Exclusif, Bal d'Afrique, and Lost Cherry. I'd highly recommend cashmere-lined leather gloves, a designer cardholder, a luxe hand wash, Georg Jensen candlestick holders, a sauna blanket, and even a Staub cast-iron pan.These are the gi...

Reviews of Fall and Winter 2025 Fashion, Beauty, Home Items

We’ve reached a point in time in which it’s fully possible to not have to buy anything before reading a review on the internet first. I, for one, live and die by reviews for everything—from socks to sunscreen. But I also like to be the reviewer sometimes. If I recently discovered something I love, I'll tell anyone who will listen all about it. Over the past several weeks, that's been the case many times, so I'm choosing not to gatekeep some of my new favorite things. Some of my all-time favorite purchases came to me via first-person reviews, so I'm paying it forward.Whenever the seasons change, I'm inspired to try new items that span the categories of fashion, home, beauty, and travel accessories, and this fall (and soon, winter) has been no exception. From my new favorite Zara coat to the...

The scientific innovation that promises to revolutionize the fashion industry: color fabrics created solely with bacteria

A scientific innovation promises to revolutionize the fashion industry with a sustainable transition. Recently, scientists took a big step in that direction by getting microorganisms to produce fibers. Additionally, they also managed to dye them in all the colors of the rainbow, all in a single container. If the project can be scaled, a future t-shirt could be made entirely by bacteria and dyed with natural colors without harmful chemicals. This would revolutionize the fashion industry, one of the most polluting globally. A solution to textile pollution in the fashion industry The advancement, published in the journal Trends in Biotechnology, represents a sustainable alternative to the conventional fashion industry. In the study, the bacteria managed to generate b...

Diverse World Fashion goes back in time with ‘Threads of Time’ runway

Diverse World Fashion (DWF) magazine is one of many Tallahassee-based fashion publications. The magazine encourages student creativity by allowing them to direct photo shoots and style models, writing ideas surrounding a one-word theme each semester. In addition to their magazine, DWF also hosts a semi-annual runway. Held on Nov. 14, the fall runway followed the theme "Threads of Time."“I think media and publications like [DWF] need to exist to provide different perspectives of authenticity, which is one thing that I think is kind of lacking in this day and age, when everything is kind of promoted or designed for us, these decisions are picked for us, as far as fashion trends and all that stuff,” graduate student Austin Bezdek said to the FSView. “I think groups like this and productions l...
