30 Fall Streetwear Pieces That Measure Up to the Hype by Banna Girmay
In the streetwear world, hype is the name of the game which makes it even harder to discern whether any given trend or piece is worth the investment or if it’ll instead fizzle out like the rest of ’em. As someone who’s watched many streetwear brands and trends come and go, I have a good feel for what will stick versus those items that will end up looking super dated next year. Part of the trick is to look for “instant classics” and the more slept-on pieces that only the real ones know about. After all, the last thing you want is for everybody and their mama to be wearing the same thing as you.
As your local streetwear aficionado, I’ve saved you some time and have linked 30 streetwear pieces that actually measure up to the hype. Keep scrolling to find the season’s investment pieces that I believe will only appreciate in value, along with affordable fall staples that will instantly elevate your looks.
PS, there are a lot of gift ideas in here too. Your loved ones will appreciate it! Happy shopping.
11 Pairs Of Colorful Socks That Are Anything But Boring by Kari Molvar
Now that the weather is turning colder, you might be thinking about socks for the first time in months. If your collection could use a little sprucing up, consider looking beyond the merely functional options and exploring the recent wave of colorful dress socks that have been popping up on social feeds and the ankles of stylish people everywhere. Ideal for work and play, statement socks add personality and, depending on the vibe you go for, a dash of humor and wit to your looks. Granted, fashion socks won’t save your toes from frostbite on top of a mountain or deliver compression during workouts but they will keep your feet comfortable in everything from low-top sneakers to sparkly heels and save you from fashion boredom.
Maybe you love stripes, tiny dogs or bananas—all are welcome on your dress socks, which typically hit mid-calf or higher on your leg and are made from light to medium-weight fabrics that layer well with slacks and skirts. If you’re the type of person who normally doesn’t wear loud colors or bold prints, taking a fashion leap with your socks is an easy way to experiment and dip a toe, so to speak, in designer labels without spending a fortune (Gucci makes beautiful socks that cost far less than the Italian brand’s handbags, for example). Ahead, find 11 pairs of colorful dress socks to inspire your sartorial creativity and punch up your looks this season.
New-York-based Kule elevates basic wardrobe staples with unexpected color combinations and clever details that make you smile. These snazzy nylon dress socks feature a cheerful checkerboard pattern and the brand’s signature stripes at the top.
Vogue Editors On the Perfect Sweatpants to Lounge in This Holiday Break by Anny Choi and Madeline Fass
As fashion experts, Vogue staffers encounter all types of products, from luxury fashion to tech, beauty to basics. Yet few items inspire as many divergent opinions as sweatpants. Some editors prefer their loungewear swanky and oversized for the ultimate athleisure look, while others make the case for a relaxed fit and a low price—total relaxation. Then there is the camp who like more tailored or cropped-fit pieces that don’t wear as baggy as classic sweats. And when it comes to track pants, two of our editors happen to agree on retro styles and (of all colors!) slime green. If the pandemic taught us anything, it’s perfectly ok to wear whatever comfortwear you love in and out of the house.
The Get has helped you shop for everything from the best gift ideas to wardrobe essentials, and now we’re weighing in on some of the most comfortable loungewear and the best sweatpants to sport at the airport during travels, hanging out at home, or after indulgent holiday meals. Whatever option you choose, don’t be afraid to let loose—after all, comfort is the end goal.
