& Other Stories happens to be my (and my fellow editors’) favourite destination for pieces that are the perfect balance between polished and trend-forward, so when I got the opportunity to test-drive the brand’s autumn arrivals, I was ecstatic. The brand features expensive-looking basics you’ll want in your wardrobe but adds the teeniest touches of trending elements, whether it’s a pop of colour, fun buttons, or a subtle print. It took quite some time to make my choices, but I narrowed it down to 10 pieces and have relayed the eight below that ended up passing my test.
Things can often feel or look different than they do on the website, so once I made my wish list, I was eager for the items to arrive, especially when it comes to the brand’s special knits. The pieces all felt luxe, so I knew they’d be hanging around in my wardrobe for a long time. They also look a lot more expensive than they actually are, so that’s a plus. If you’ve been eyeing something at & Other Stories but have been curious about their fit or quality, you can take a look at my personal review below.
