This utilitarian layer is giving barn jacket vibes with a skosh more ruggedness we love for a mountain escape.

These pastel ballerinas have us eagerly counting down the days until spring.

This shorty Moon Boot is the ultimate slip-in-and-go shoe for everything from ski days to coffee runs. 

You’ll never regret investing in timeless shades like Ray-Ban’s angular hexagonal sunnies. 

Literally drooling over this woven leather bomber. Guaranteed, it’s unlike any other in your wardrobe. 

We’d wear these everywhere if we could (our bodega guy may or may not have seen us in them).

A sequin mini is always a good idea — catch us styling ours with a roomy button-down and kitten heels for a low-key festive vibe this NYE. 

The waist-accentuating seams on this wool coat are the antidote to boxy and oversized ‘fit fatigue.

The rugby sweater trend is one we’re staying committed to in 2025. 

Convince us we don’t need a trendy East-West tote to kick off our workwear style. We dare you. 

It’s giving opulence, but also stealth wealth? We’re obsessed.  

Boxers practically begging for an oversized sweatshirt, cozy socks, and a weekend of unapologetic couch-rotting.

This faux-shearling coat is the outfit. Full-stop. 

What’s black, white, and sleek all over? This guaranteed-to-get-up-and-down-eyes shirtdress.

The way we’re not even a little embarrassed to add another flare legging to our wardrobes. 

A little whip-stitching to make the case for another ivory crewneck to your wardrobe. 

Party on in these sequin flares — we love them with an oversized knit or boxy tee.

Combining two of our footwear loves in one: UGGs and clogs. 

An iconic quilted Barbour coat for 30%? Racing to checkout so fast. 

The distinctive belt loops that spell “Staud” have convinced us we need these jeans designed in collaboration with Wrangler. Giddy up. 

The hold peplums have on us. This sleek halter top is a stunner for NYE and beyond. 

This crescent bag looks so expensive and comes in under $55 — sold. 

Live in it, layer it, love it. This merino wool cardigan brings effortless cool to whatever’s on your winter agenda.

Olive green is the neutral update your sneaker collection is calling for. 

Proof you can stay warm and snatch your waist on the coldest days.

Mother, may I? Indeed.

Once your black puffer is on lock, get yourself a taupe-tastic version, like this rib-trimmed style. 

Sambas they are not, but tugging at our sneakerhead-strings? Yes, they are.

Girl math is justifying another puffer by playing up its versatility and pragmatism — like this timeless quilted version.

Best-selling for a reason. These ridiculously soft PJs make sleeping in and doing nothing feel entirely intentional.

A boring black boot? We don't know her.

The ultimate in-flight outfit? Comfy travel pants paired with this ultra-plush teddy jacket.

Puffers piling up? How about a quilted vest moment to throw into the rotation?

Do you need another black pant? Probably not. But these are seriously so good.

R29 readers are Barefoot Dreams obsessed (tbh, so are we).

Still holding out on wide-leg jeans? This pair will have you asking why you waited so long.
