EDITOR'S NOTE

Well, Skimm Shoppers, last week I was down-and-out with a FLiRT-y case of COVID-19. But since my Commerce Editor brain never shuts off, I made a list of the products that helped me during the thick of it. First and foremost, I would like to give my mom a shoutout for sending over an actually good soup-related gift box I will now be sending to everyone. Some other shoutouts include this ice roller for saving me in my most feverish moments and these bath soaks for cutting my aches and pains in half. What are your sick day must-haves? Let us know.

You asked, we answered.

Last week, we asked our followers over at @skimmshopping if they had any add-to-cart woes. Here’s what they wanted to know:

cargo pants

If you’re looking for a dupe for a certain designer denim pair, these from J.Crew Factory are so good. They don’t have too many pockets, but they definitely provide the look of cargos and are only $50. If you’re looking for a classic pair, I’m obsessed with these sweatpant-trouser cargos from Athleta. They’re perfect for travel, and I love that they come in a range of lengths and sizes.

fall shoes

As we move into fall, there are so many fantastic, comfortable, and trendy shoe options available. We’re going to be talking more about this on Thursday, but in the meantime, I’m currently loving these soft ballet flats, some chunky sneakers, and a pair of ankle boots. These loafers from Quince were a bestseller last week.
