There are two things we have to reconcile each and every time we get dressed:
Our desire to look cute.
Our desire to be comfortable.
Sounds obvious, maybe even too simplistic to be worth mentioning, but a lot of times we feel like we’re letting ourselves down when we get dressed, and it’s because in the cold, hard light of our closet, we just want to pick out something that feels good on our bodies. And we maaaaaay sacrifice style to do it.
This reality has given us a laser sharp goal where clothes are concerned. Find pieces that are excellent quality, excellent fitting, classic in style (but with a cool factor), that FEEL EFFING AMAZING.
We’re talking an athleisure/ loungewear level of softness and stretch, but with actual tailoring and chicness.
Enough wishing on a star. We found the clothes. And they come from a single brand that’s filling this very unique and specific space between comfort and cuteness. Perhaps you’ve heard of them.
They’re called Z Supply.
So many of their pieces are sort of unlike anything else we’ve found. But the best way to explain it is to just show you. So without further ado, here are 8 of our favorite things from the brand that we plan to wear pretty much every day of fall.
1. The Softest, Most Flattering Everyday Dress
WHAT: Angel Eyes Denim Midi Dress*
Why we love it: If you feel like something is missing from your closet, it might be this soft, denim, midi dress. Such was the case for us. It’s hard enough to find dresses that fit and flatter both the upper and lower halves of our bodies, but to also be this easy to style for all seasons makes this dress doubly valuable. Like many Z Supply dresses, it fits us better than 97% of the dresses we try on. There’s smocking on the side to create an easy hourglass without being stiff and restrictive. In fact, it feels almost silky in its softness. You can throw on anything over it. All your existing belts and cardigans and coats and boots will match and make you look instantly styled. You can also layer things under it (a turtleneck could be very cute and Meg-Ryan-in-You’ve-Got-Mail chic).
Price: $138
2. The Incredible Scoopneck Tee That Doubles As A Going-Out Top
WHAT: Tibi Scoop Mesh Top*
Why we love it: Z Supply is a great place to stock up on staples we reach for over and over. Their long-sleeve tees, for example, might look like any other cute, longsleeve tee but the quality and way it fits are different. Superior. The material is always buttery, but it also holds you in. The fabric is sort of thicker without being thick, flexible … maybe strong is the right word. The point is they give us our best shape, and the cut, especially the scoop neck is beyond flattering on arms, chests and shoulders. You can see one of us wearing their signature, solid long-sleeve* throughout this article, but this mesh one is an incredible day-to-night, fall staple.
Price: $84
3. The Cropped Denim Jacket That Feels Like A Sweatshirt
WHAT: Heritage Knit Denim Jacket*
Why we love it: This is where their originality really shines. Z Supply has a whole line of knit denim, which means clothes that feel like sweatshirts but look like denim jackets and jeans. Many of them come as a set*, but this cropped, French terry and cotton jacket is one we’re constantly wearing solo over long pants and high waist skirts (this one by the way is also from Z Supply* and holds you in like a dream). The shorter length nips the waist and makes our legs look longer, and again, it feels like we’re in a hoodie.
Price: $140
4. The Utility Pant We’ve Been Looking For Since 2001
WHAT: Olive Twill Pant*
Why we love it: Jennifer Aniston made us all want olive-colored cargo/army/utility pants back in the early 2000s that we could roll up and wear with black jackets and our best handbag. See HERE for reference/ inspiration. This pair is so comfortable and has just the right amount of space to accommodate all our curvy bits without being too baggy.
Price: $128
5. The Oversized Cardigan We Live In All Winter
WHAT: Theo V-Neck Cardigan*
Why we love it: Who doesn’t live for a chic and spacious cardigan that’s almost spongey with softness? This is the one we wear out because it’s so gorgeous and at home because it’s so cozy.
Price: $110
6. The Blissful And Buttery Sweat Set
WHAT: Classic Boyfriend Sweatshirt* and Jogger*
Why we love it: This is not some synthetic set that feels stiff after one trip to the washing machine. This is the smooth, buttery, 100% cotton fleece, slouchy-fitting set that feels like a best friend waiting for us in our closet. It comes in many colors and gets us an unusual number of compliments for a sweat set. We recommend gifting it to loved ones accordingly.
Price: $74 for the sweatshirt, $74 for the jogger
7. The Tufted Knit “Denim’ Jacket That Magically Matches Everything
WHAT: Boulder Quilted Knit Denim Jacket*
Why we love it: Another knit denim act of genius. Because it’s oversized and tufted, it makes us look put together no matter what we wear underneath. It also singlehandedly solves the problem of what color jacket do I throw on over an all-black outfit.
Price: $178
8. The Lounge Pants That Are Tailored Like Trousers So Naturally, We Wear Them to Work
WHAT: Round Trip Modal Pant*
Why we love it: These pants LOOK like wide-leg trousers - the kind that make our legs seem longer and fit very nicely over our lower tum, hips, and thighs. But once again, they’re butter-soft (think yoga pants). We wear them on weekends with sneaks and dress them up for work like so:
p.s. The coat is also a knit* that looks like wool, so while the whole look comes off very smart, we’re basically in PJs and a robe.
Price: $98
9. The Set Where There Are No Words To Describe How Heavenly It Feels On Your Skin
WHAT: Dawn Smocked Rib Pant* and Zoe Silky Rib Tank Bra*
Why we love it: We can’t do justice to how this set feels in words. We’ve actually tried to write a dedicated article about it, but it sells out in so many colors so often, it felt unfair to our dear readers to scream about how great it is only for their size and preferred color to be sold out. But it’s in stock now and let us tell you, the softness is delicate and airy and not at all flimsy in a way you’ve never felt. There’s also a matching full-length top* if the bra isn’t for you.
Price: $68 for the pants and $38 for the bra
