Having to protect ourselves from the cold forces us to think more about the layers we put on, and that’s perhaps what I find most exhilarating about the transition to cooler weather. One style I’ve been particularly looking forward to wearing is the A.L.C. Eleanor Cardigan ($395). I was so excited when I first discovered it and then when it came in the mail last month, I took it on a recent trip to California (of all places).
My philosophy as I approach this season is to do more with less, to collect a few durable, well-made pieces I’ll cherish for a long time.

The soft feel and sultry yet relaxed fit allow for comfortable wear, while the sophisticated look is basically a compliment magnet.
When paired with the matching Logan Rib Knit Pants ($395), it’s the ultimate fall ensemble. The Los Angeles-based brand has perfected the art of making separates I can’t stop raving about, and while you could wear both pieces on their own, you just might not want to.
