Cart Confidential Vol. 48 – Julia Berolzheimer

After weeks of looking at clothes at full volume, I’m drawn to the smaller details: an unexpected finish on a jacket, a color pairing I hadn’t considered, a familiar silhouette done in a new way. My cart is a mix of runway-adjacent pieces and the ones I’ll reach for constantly, like these Hunter Bell pants. The tiny motif and relaxed shape make them easy to wear any day without ever feeling boring.

For the girls, fall break in New York City has me thinking about layers that keep them warm but peel off easily for a full day of playing. I’m still looking for personality, just with a little more practicality built in. A striped knit, colorful pants, or printed vest gives the suitcase plenty of life while making sense for the weather.

For the house, I’m eyeing what will carry us through the hosting stretch ahead. This is our first holiday season with most of our redecorating finished, so I’m looking for marbled flatware, patterned napkins, and sculptural accents that make a fall table feel festive and still look right at home in the new space.
