What We’re Wearing

Soft Luxe Layers

Maybe it’s the weather or perhaps just the state of the world right now, but there’s something about cozy, relaxed basics that just feel right. Fall is here so we can really start dressing, but sometimes you need a fit that sits squarely between “elevated basics” and “I just want to be comfortable.” Let’s call it soft luxe—the kind of dressing that feels indulgent without looking precious. Think cashmere that isn’t showy, joggers that read more “tailored” than “travel day”, and layers that make you look pulled-together even when your day is half work, half wandering around the neighborhood.

What makes this style click is how quietly confident it is. The palette stays neutral, the silhouettes stay simple, and the fabrics do most of the talking. What’s more, all of these pieces can be mixed in with the rest of your wardrobe all winter long. It’s the rare aesthetic that works whether you’re headed to the office, grabbing dinner or just trying to elevate your everyday uniform while relaxing at home.
