If you didn’t already know, COS is the moment. While the fashion brand has been around since 2007, it recently received a surplus of new (and well deserved) attention. Why is that, you ask? I like to think the emphasis on quality basics, quiet luxury, and sustainability did the trick. The brand offers affordable but timeless pieces made with materials like regenerative cotton and other recycled fabrics. It also helps that A-listers, including Pamela Anderson, Gigi Hadid, and Alberto Guerra, are big fans of the label. 

What I love most about COS is its design ethos that fashion should be timeless, good clothes should work for more than just one season. As a fashion editor, this is especially important because it’s my job to sift through sales, dissect trends, and predict fads—and through the years of my career, COS has been one of the brands to remain on all of my must-have lists. The pieces I’ve acquired from COS are durable, elegant, and serve as the foundation of my wardrobe.

Keep scrolling to get a breakdown of all the pieces I think should be in your cart as well as advice on how to style them. 

Denim Blazer


BUY NOW ($118)

I know I’ve said this in several other articles but it’s all about denim! It’s time to step your denim game up if you haven’t already. This slouchy blazer is so cool. I would rock it just as the model has it styled with loose-fitting jeans, but you can also pair it with black leather pants or a sparkly silver skirt for extra contrast.

Wide Leg Shorts

Jorts are no longer controversial. They’re the hottest item in fashion right now, with the girlies wearing them out on the town and in the office. The way the above pair is styled is a perfect example of how to make them work for the office. Throw on a tank, a blazer, kitten heels or boots (since it’s fall), and you’re set.

Sleeveless Ruffle Hem Maxi Dress

When it comes to building a capsule wardrobe or a wardrobe in general, a black dress (or several) is crucial. Black dresses are timeless, can be worn in every season, and with almost anything. The ruffled hem on this one makes it a bit excited and the length elongates the figure.

Knit Straight Leg Pants

These pants won’t have you out here sacrificing comfort for style. Dress them up with a leather blazer and pointed-toe boots, or keep things chill with sneakers and a cardigan.

Wool V-Neck Cardigan


BUY NOW ($75)

I’m a big sweater girlie, and there are levels to the knit game. You have pullovers, vests, and cardigans. This Wool V-Neck design is lightweight, which will come in handy when you need a light layer.

Racer Paneled Leather Skirt

When I want to spruce up my wardrobe, I keep my eyes peeled for statement pieces like this leather skirt. The distressed stitching and modest length make it more exciting than your typical leather skirt. It feels formal, but also effortlessly chic.

Statement cuffs are all the rage. It gives denim that extra umph, taking it from boring to beautiful. These pants also offer a wide-leg fit, which pairs best with a pointed shoe.
