As I walked up Bleecker street toward Ganni’s West Village location, with a latte in hand, one thing became clear. Autumn had arrived. The leaves were browning as they drifted slowly to the sidewalk, my coffee was hot instead of iced, and I was in need of a seasonal wardrobe refresh. When I entered the store, with the brand’s Copenhagen pastels, I found myself gravitating toward transitional pieces with a twist. I was especially excited to check out the new ballet flats and modern suiting I’d been eyeing online.

While I usually steer clear of prints and opt for a more minimalistic approach, I couldn’t help but try on some animal print separates that are currently trending. Throughout my early morning visit, I found the perfect curved sleeve black top—the type of structured silhouette that makes me swoon—as well as a versatile midi suit skirt, an effortless wool jacket, and really fun sweaters.

Below, a few key pieces I tried on at Ganni, plus some additional must-haves to add to cart.
