The Lust List: L.A. Fall Edit

When you live in L.A., you get to pick and choose what season you’re feeling. So while fall may be upon us, we’re still yearning for summer, which is why this list includes a few of our favorite pieces for now — and for later. Depending on where your mood takes you. (Hey, it’s L.A. We get away with a lot more here.) In that spirit, here are our top picks for clothing, accessories, pajamas, beauty items, and more for this season and beyond.

BEN FINE JEWELRY

Founded by Charlotte Macaulay, BEN is a playful take on fine jewelry. The designer, who previously worked for Clare V, Kate Spade, and J. Crew, recently launched the line, which includes five edgy necklace chains and six “vault” designs, which are crafted from 14k recycled gold. Our personal favorite is The You Vault with a gold 18.5” paperclip chain, which retails for $3,600.

NAGHEDI

This New York label’s handwoven St. Barths Petit Graphic Geo tote in Indio is as durable as it is stylish. Featuring a modern geometric pattern, the neoprene design can be worn as a mini tote or as a small messenger bag thanks to a removable crossbody strap.

Available for $235 at naghedinyc.com.

EUGENIA KIM

We love this New York label’s Mirabel hat in ivory for a spring, summer, or fall stroll — or as a winter white vacay accessory. The grosgrain-trimmed straw sunhat is an accessory for all seasons. As long as you live in a tropical climate, of course.

Available for $495 at net-a-porter.com.

WARBY PARKER

You can’t go wrong with the charitable eyewear company’s Geoff McFetridge collaboration, which includes the Edgemont in jet black. Named after the graphic designer’s Canadian hometown, the round frame is timeless and impeccably cool.

Available for $95 at warbyparker.com.

SIMKHAI

Los Angeles-based designer Jonathan Simkhai’s Anisa belted mixed media sweater dress features a faux-leather skirt, goldtone hardware, and a textured yarn top.

Available for $595 at nordstrom.com.

JEN’S PIRATE BOOTY

Designed by Jen Rossi, the Malibu-based company’s Zina Romper in whiskey will add a pop of color to your fall wardrobe. While JPB’s flagship store is located in Joshua Tree, its website also carries the brand’s free-spirited, boho chic designs.

Available for $216 at jenspiratebooty.com.

THIS IS J

Cozy and cute? This Is J’s super soft Henley Harem Set in black tie dye is ethically produced in Canada and made from bamboo.

Available for $172 at thisisj.com.

GAP X LOVESHACKFANCY

Channel a spring/summer vibe this fall thanks to this collab made in floral heaven. Added bonus: match your mini-me thanks to their pint-sized hoodies for kids.

Available for $88 at gap.com.

ATHLETA

The athletic company’s Saysh One Sneaker in black features a breathable microsuede fabric, which is great for running errands and low impact workouts. Designed by Allyson Felix, the shoes are a fashion forward approach to casual footwear. (And the brand’s lightweight leggings are pretty great, too.)

Available for $150 at athleta.gap.com.

SEAVEES

The 1960s footwear brand was relaunched in 2008 with a slew of new shoes — including The Royal Runner in Cumin. These retro sneakers include a memory foam footbed and recycled rubber sawtooth sole for added comfort and traction. The best part? They’re also made from recycled nylon.

Available for $95 at seavees.com.

TENOVERTEN

Brittle nails from an active summer? Pick up Tenoverten’s The Outlast ($20) and The Foundation ($18) polishes, which provide a chip-defying top coat and a base coat/nail strengthener, respectively.

Both available at saks.com.

CHANEL BEAUTY

The French luxury label is known for their limited-edition seasonal collections and this fall’s line-up doesn’t disappoint. Inspired by Gabrielle Chanel’s favorite season, autumn, the new palette includes hazelnut, deep brown, and a hint of orange — as a nod to the final days of summer. Key products include the DOUCIEUR D’ÉQUINOXE Blush Harmony with two tones and embossed with a gorgeous leaf pattern ($70), the OMBRE PREMIÈRE LIBRE Loose Eyeshadow Intense, Longwearing Colour in six stunning shades ($40); the ROUGE COCO BLOOM Hydrating Plumping Intense Shine Lip Colour in six new colors ($45); and the LE VERNIS Longwear Nail Colour in two shades — a light orange and redish brown ($32).
