What the Readers Bought in October 2024

Fashion

collage of 4 tops most bought by readers in October 2024

Ever wonder what the readers bought last month? I don't know if we're going to go back to making this monthly, but I've been looking at the data and figured you guys might be interested also, since fashion is in such a weird time right now.

I think these purchases reflect where a lot of us are right now — working in a much more casual space than we were before, but we still desire to look elegant and polished. The top retailers from last month included Nordstrom, Ann Taylor, Amazon, J.Crew, Quince, Banana Republic Factory, Cuyana, and Everlane.

(I should note that as of this writing my data for Nordstrom is screwed up, so that's a big chunk…)
