My mom and I have many similarities, but one of the most notable is our shared love for fashion. However, when it comes to personal style, we’re quite oppositeāI prefer a minimalist, understated look, while she goes for a more maximalist aesthetic. Despite our different tastes, I thought it would be fun to ask her which pieces from H&M’s new arrivals caught her eye to create an edit that combines both of our choices and suits different dressers.
If you haven’t already seen H&M’s early fall collection, it’s easily the most elevated and elegant it’s ever looked. There are over 10 pages’ worth of expensive-looking basics and statement pieces for the season ahead. Think suede jackets, barn coats, plaid shirts, knee-high boots, and dark-wash jeans. So without further ado, keep scrolling to see and shop our 18-piece edit. And, remember, H&M’s new arrivalsāthe good onesāalways sell out quickly, so if you see something you like, don’t hesitate to add it to your cart.
This is our favorite find, but that doesn’t mean the rest of our picks aren’t great, too. Also, check out the chocolate-brown option while you’re at it.
H&M
Fine-Knit Turtleneck Top
An elevated knit you’ll never get tired of wearing.
H&M
Harper High Rise Wide Leg Jeans
Sorry, we only want to wear dark-wash jeans this fall.
My mom has loved leopard print since she was a teenager, so it makes sense that these would be her first choice.
There’s nothing not to love about this collarless leather jacket.
This color is so elegant.
Pencil skirts used to be styled with blazers and button-down shirts, but now they’re paired with casual tees and sweaters, creating unexpectedly polished looks.
So you’re saying these aren’t from Toteme? Wow.
H&M
Jacket With Corduroy Collar
This jacket also comes in army green and khaki, but my mom and I think the navy blue looks the most expensive.
Size up for a looser fit that will feel more 2025.
Wear these to the office with a blazer and loafers or with a cropped tank and slingback pointed-toe heels for a night out with friends.
Skip the adjustable long strap. Instead, use the wide top-handle and carry this bag in the crook of your arm or in your hand.
H&M
Tie-Belt Denim Jacket
There’s something about a belted jacket that lends a relaxed and effortless vibe.
H&M
Ruffle-Trimmed Mesh Blouse
If I didn’t see the label, I would think this was ChloĆ©.
All of the chicest dressers that my mom and I know save their white jeans to wear after Labor Day.
We’re so happy that draped dresses are here to stay, as they’re the most flattering style for any body.
Style under maxi dresses and skirts all fall and winter long.
