It's January, and in my editor opinion, the perfect time for a 2026 closet update. This year, I'm dressing to impress. That means wearing elevated outfits that reflect my 2026 style aspirations: wealth, elegance, and ease. The retailer's new arrivals offer exactly that. To be honest, I needed little convincing to shop its latest additions—my closet already resembles a J.Crew catalog. Nevertheless, these soon-to-be 2026 staples are sure to impress. While these rich-looking fashion finds are good on their own, they look even better when combined with fellow J.Crew icons. If you're in search of effortlessly chic outfits to wear in 2026, then look no further.

Ahead, the results of my hour-long scroll through J.Crew's new arrivals—five of the best outfits to wear in 2026. From preppy button-downs paired with a flirty lace-trim skirt to the new way fashion people are wearing leggings in 2026, there's plenty of A+ finds coming your way, many of which are currently on sale. Spoiler: The Perfect Cashmere Crewneck Sweater appears twice. That's how you know it's a must-have piece. (Not to mention, it's a personal favorite.)
