You’ll Want to Wear This Golf Gear On and Off the Course by Nicole Kliest

While tennis has its signature crisp whites and pleated skirts and dresses, the best golf clothes for women have been in need of a refresh from argyle socks and preppy V-necks. Thankfully, that has arrived, and these active styles are now pieces you might want to wear off the course, too. 

Designers like Tory Burch, Malbon, and Byrdie Golf Social Wear are leaning into motifs that harken back to golf’s most stylish days (when golfers like Gary Player and Arnold Palmer sported cardigans, sweater vests, and trousers), but with sweat-wicking materials and more fashion-forward cuts. If you wish to take a more classic activewear approach, tried-and-true heritage labels such as Adidas, Nike, and Ralph Lauren are ready to take your wardrobe up a notch with their golf-ready takes on the best workout clothes for women.

Here, shop some of the best golf clothes for women on the market, from polished sweater vests and easy-to-wear dresses, to bucket hats and more— all of which you’ll want to sport even when you aren’t teeing up.

Best Golf Polos for Women

Is there any golf top more classic than a polo? You already know the answer is no. For a graphic moment, consider Nylora’s striped quarter-zip, which is made from stretch scuba fabric to hug your curves. Outdoor Voices’ cropped version pairs well with high-waisted skirts or pants (which you might also love for a surprise ab-reveal). Kule’s terrycloth polo is a great for a hot day; the towel-like fabric will instantly soak up sweat, while Tory Burch’s pointelle-knit makes for a charming and lightweight option you’ll be keen to sport with denim after your 18 holes are made.

Vogue Essentials: The Wardrobe Staples We’re Carrying Into 2024 by Vogue Shopping Editors

Winter weather has arrived, which means there’s no time like the present to fully transition your wardrobe into one more suitable for the freezing temperatures, gusty winds, and wintry mixes that come with it. While everyday essentials like crisp white button-ups, great pairs of jeans, and notable knitwear, are the usual suspects in a polished winter uniform, our staples for this (and next!) year look slightly different. For 2024, we’re giving fabulous faux-fur coats, lug-sole boots, slim-fitting turtlenecks, and chic leather gloves a front row seat. ’Tis also the season for party dressing! Think sequin minidresses, crystal-embellished footwear, and elegant evening bags, all of which are given prime real estate in our closets. 

With that being said, we could never forgo those aforementioned closet classics all together, especially since the start of a new season is often synonymous with change, whether it’s to improve personal routines, set and manifest goals, or even make a sartorial vibe shift. (Maybe you’re rethinking how to approach your style, cleaning out your closet of unworn items of the past, or looking to update and elevate your collection of wardrobe essentials altogether.)

To help, the Vogue shopping team has gathered a robust list of our favorite, most versatile pieces we consider to be foundational for any closet. Pared back but never boring, these are the wardrobe essentials our editors find themselves turning to season after season, the mainstay items, and the pieces we’re loving for 2023 (and 2024). And while we’ll still welcome irresistible seasonal and trend-forward pieces like statement red sweaters and sleek denim midiskirts—it’s fashion we’re obsessed with, after all!—we know those need to live alongside a capsule of staples, because every wardrobe needs a yin-yang balance. That shiny new statement item will dazzle even more when paired with, say, the perfect go-to jeans. And sometimes the item becomes a wardrobe essential itself.

Ahead is a well-curated edit that has helped craft the foundation of our wardrobes. It’s safe to say we’re wearing at least one, if not more, of the highlighted pieces daily. We’ve covered the classics—white T-shirts, crewneck sweaters, trench coats, tailored trousers, chic sneakers—and also those items that have more recently earned their spot as a wardrobe essential: ballet flats, knit maxi dresses, menswear-inspired loafers, and pairs of polished kitten heels that transition from workwear to evening wear seamlessly.

So here’s to raising the bar on stylish essentials this winter season (and beyond) and investing in the timeless, long-lasting pieces you’ll love for years to come. Below, shop a collection of closet must-haves from your friends at Vogue.

The Striped Sweater

The nautical-inspired striped sweater is a favorite among a handful of our very own editors; perhaps it’s because La Ligne’s striped knits have been perfected by two former Vogue editors. Kules’s cream-and-navy version is another cozy choice.

Crafting a Signature Style with Nikki Kule

This Fall, In Kind Magazine interviewed Nikki about her personal style for its Issue No. 7. If you don’t know of In Kind Magazine, then you must subscribe. It’s a biannual print magazine created and edited by Leah Melby Clinton and Hannah Weil McKinley that focuses on career, motherhood, and style. Nikki’s Instagram selfies caught the eye of Leah and Hannah, who then reached out to include her in the magazine. In Nikki’s feature, she discusses the art of dressing for herself and finding inspiration. We’re including a sneak peek of In Kind this week to dive deeper into Nikki’s outfit formulas for each season.

For fall/winter in New York, where Nikki was born and raised, she says she’s a coat and pants girl. “Pants are what I love to start with and build my look from there.” Nikki says her go-to pieces are “a button-down shirt from KULE, trousers, and a great coat or jacket.”

In the spring, Nikki likes to layer and still keeps a favorite jacket like the KULE Rox Trench with which she wears a KULE tee (the Wynn Baby Tee is her current favorite), great pants, and sandals.

When Nikki’s in Miami, she uses the same process of getting dressed, but adds some more playful elements. 

Interview as told to by Hannah Weil McKinley of In Kind. For more of the interview, including some of Nikki’s go-to brands to mix with KULE, packing and style tips for travel, and her approach to design these days, you can order a copy of In Kind issue No.7.

Do Me a Solid

You know us for our striped tees, which have become a signature of the KULE brand, but did you know we also make solid tees? Like all our tees, they’re made in Portugal (read more about Nikki’s production trip to Portugal here!). In 100% organic cotton, our tees are incredibly soft but long-lasting–a wardrobe staple. We reach for these solid tees whenever we style a new collection or, frankly, get dressed daily.

KULE white tees

We are best known for our Modern tee, which is soft, light, and straight cut. It’s the silhouette you want to wear daily, and customers keep returning for. It’s a favorite amongst fashion editors, too: Vogue says it has a “classic unisex shape and soft, lightweight feel, with sleeves that are just long enough and never too tight,” while Forbes says it’s “the Best High-End White T-Shirt For Women.” All your bases are covered in white, navy, heather grey, and black.

We also have the Modern Long if you’re a year-round long-sleeve tee personality or layering up for cooler days. It’s made from the same 100% Organic Cotton, so you know it’ll be the same super soft and high-quality as The Modern.

Going sleeveless, our tanks are perfect for both the thick of summer and year-round layering. Our newest style and favorite amongst the KULE Team is the Ribbed Lenny, a form-fitting ribbed tank. It’s a great base layer (we love it with a blazer or cardigan) and a classic light top option for summer.

We also have the Ribbed Eleni, which we consider the little sister to the Lenny. It’s a slightly cropped tank with a finer rib and piped finishing, available in white and heather grey, but we’d be robbing you if we didn’t mention the new stripes that launched for Fall/Winter, too.

Our third is the classic Tank, a customer favorite for years. We like to think of this style as a “sleeveless tee” as it has the body and neckline of the Modern.

Last spring, we introduced the Wynn Baby Tee, which is meant to have a smaller, almost “shrunken” body. It’s perfect to wear when you don’t want to tuck your tee into your jeans with a shorter hem length. And you can fit a stick of emergency gum in its little pocket! Customers size up if they want a looser fit, but still want its cool style.

Made for both layering and wearing alone, we have the Rugby. Our version of a Rugby is from the same lightweight, super-soft cotton we use in our Modern tees. No stiff, thick rugbies here! This solid version is an easy everyday long-sleeve tee with a rugby collar, perfect for layering under crewnecks or on its own. Now you need to decide: collar popped or down?

Year-round, the Turtleneck is a style customers love so much that we expanded our solid color assortment 🙂. InStyle says it’s “More like a tee than a sweater, making it the perfect transitional piece…lightweight and made from super soft 100 percent cotton, it’s more than your average simple top.” A natural extension from our other tees you know and love, it is the perfect layering piece for fall or summer. We won’t judge.

Hello, Atlanta 👋🍑

We are thrilled to share that last week, we became an official Atlanta resident with a brand new store in Buckhead Village. This is our first store in the South and third current store (our others are both in New York: at Rockefeller Center and Cobble Hill, Brooklyn). As a New York brand, we are excited to branch out and have this new space, our largest one yet. You have to see the magic of the space, decked out in–what else–stripes! There will never be a substitute for in-person shopping, and our stores fill the experience with warmth and smiles 🙂

The most remarkable feature of the store — one you cannot miss — is the stripes across the ceiling and down the wall of the space. Nikki wanted you to feel encapsulated in stripes, a feature inspired by The Beverly Hills Hotel during a trip to LA this past summer.

Makes you want to paint stripes on your ceiling, huh?

The store is a labor of love starting with Nikki’s design conception of the space; the largest KULE storefront she’s taken on yet. With the help of Debora Cicchini and her sketches, they worked on the space from New York and when they arrived in Atlanta is somehow all came together 🤪

To customize the space, Tracy Morgan made all of the striped paintings and colorful sculptures, we adorned the walls in many of our favorite KULE editorial images shot by Mei Tao, and Debora Cicchini made that ginormous KULE tee in the window by hand (while en route to Atlanta)!

The store has so many personal elements to Nikki such as the knickknacks and art that are items she has collected from each city we have previously had a pop-up (the Mr. Santa Barbara painting from our Montecito pop-up now resides in Atlanta). Nikki also loves to find local store owners and artists. Also included is another new painting from her favorite Buckhead discovery and neighbor in the village, Bella Cucina, and its amazing owner, Alisa Barry (she provided the greenery for the store as well).

Special thanks to the KULE team lead by President Jim Kuerschner and Head of Retail Kara Love for your hard work in making this space come to life 💪

Our captains 🚢

If you couldn’t make it, we’d love to have you come check out the store at 247 Buckhead Avenue Atlanta, GA 30305. It’s just peachy 🍑.

Where should we go next? 🤔

30 Best Preppy Gifts That’ll Make Anyone Feel Like Old Money by Jake Smith

While plenty of retailers would have you believe that they’re basically the definition of prep, actually tracking down the best preppy gifts can be a challenge. (Doubly so if you didn’t grow up around that very specific part of American culture.) But whether you’re shopping for a monogram-happy friend or a pastel-obsessed tween, we’ve done the legwork for you, and all you need to do is click “add to cart.”

Sure, regular gifts for womenpresents for husbands, and gifts for teens will work just fine. But if you’re trying to impress someone who goes through multiple pairs of Sperry shoes in a year or knows the difference between Ivy and prep, it pays dividends to get a little more specific in your shopping. From pearl earrings to floral pickleball paddles, trendy toiletry bags to embellished sweaters, these are the very best preppy gifts to give everyone this season.

Kule’s sporty tote bag features a detachable shoulder strap and plenty of room for tennis rackets—but it’s also a perfect everyday bag, for that matter.
