      Welcome to "10 Things to Buy," your monthly shopping guide designed to help you shop more efficiently by highlighting the 10 essential items to include in your cart if your wardrobe needs a refresh. As a Who What Wear editor for over 11 years, I have dedicated countless hours to advising individuals on seasonal shopping, so you are in capable hands.

Be sure to check back at the beginning of each month for more.

      Whether you like it or not, November has arrived, and with it comes the colder temperatures. Before the holiday shopping rush kicks in, I prefer to assess my winter wardrobe and purchase the pieces I need before they sell out—something that tends to happen during Black Friday. I also like to consider any trips I have planned this season and order items that will be useful for packing. Generally, I recommend focusing on winter basics in November—these are items you will utilize repeatedly that will elevate every outfit they accompany. Keep reading to explore my top 10 shopping picks for November 2025.

      **Cashmere Sweater**

      As we approach the holidays, cashmere sweaters tend to sell out quickly. Don’t let your favorite styles slip away—order them now.

      - J.Crew: Perfect Cashmere Crewneck Sweater in Argyle

      - Banana Republic: Midweight Cashmere Crew-Neck Sweater

      - Reformation: Cashmere Boyfriend Sweater

      **Checked Scarf**

      Celebrities are embracing oversized scarves, including Sabrina Carpenter. Checks are a popular trend for fall and winter, so I recommend choosing a large checked scarf to enhance your outerwear's chicness.

      - Guest in Residence: Checked Brushed Wool and Cashmere-Blend Scarf

      - Polo Ralph Lauren: Plaid Twill Scarf

      **Oversize Coat**

      For winter outerwear, I favor oversized coats. I need enough room to layer a sweater and possibly a blazer underneath my coat. Now is the time to secure your new coat as temperatures drop.

      - Aritzia: The Slouch Coat Soft Wool Cashmere

      - TOTEME: Shield Oversized Double-Breasted Wool-Blend Coat

      **Slim-Fit Jeans**

      Honestly, I’m not usually a fan of slim-fitting jeans, but in winter, they present the most polished look to pair with oversized coats and sweaters—there’s no question about it.

      - AGOLDE: Cocktail Ankle Mid-Rise Slim-Leg Jeans

      - AG Jeans: Mari High-Rise Slim-Straight Jeans

      - Madewell: The Pencil Jeans

      **Ugg Shoes**

      As you may be aware, the trendiest Ugg shoes tend to sell out by December, so treat yourself by adding your favorite pair to your collection now.

      - UGG: Ansley Genuine Shearling Trim Leather Mule

      **Long-Sleeve Layering Top**

      While layering tops may seem like a mundane afterthought, your future self will appreciate you ordering a few now.

      - Perfectwhitetee: Jamie Recycled Cotton Long Sleeve Crew

      - COS: Merino Wool High-Neck Top

      - J.Crew: Perfect-Fit Long-Sleeve Crewneck T-Shirt

      **Faux-Fur Jacket**

      The simplest way to enhance your fall and winter outfits is with a faux-fur coat. Many are already wearing them, so don't get left behind.

      - ZARA: Double-Faced Faux Fur Jacket

      - Banana Republic: Faux Fur Long Coat

      - Apparis: Elis Faux Fur Coat

      **Tights**

      I don’t know about you, but I recently evaluated my tights collection and found it lacking. After discarding all the damaged ones, I’m ordering new pairs in colors I’ll wear the most (black, chocolate brown, and gray).

      - Wolford: Velvet De Luxe 50 Tights

      - Swedish Stockings: Ylva Wool Tights

      - Commando: Semi Opaque 35 Denier Tights

      **Elevated Sweats**

      Cozy season calls for new sweats. This November, I'm focusing on styles that I can also wear outdoors for errands without looking like I just got out of bed.

      - Polo Ralph Lauren: Crew Neck Sweatshirt

      - Citizens of Humanity: Miro Sweatpants

      - Éterne: Cropped Cotton-Modal Sweatshirt

      **Suede Heels**

      I wear heels frequently in the winter, and I find that suede adds an element of sophistication to my outfits. Now is the time to find a fresh pair as holiday events are approaching.

      - Tory Burch: Double T Buckle Pumps

      - Jeffrey Campbell: Volturi Pumps
