We all know that if you can pull it off, the best gifts to give are those that you can also use and enjoy: a convertible, a remodeled bathroom, Alex Mill. The pieces are well-crafted, offered at a great price point, stylish, and the perfect amount of androgynous for me at the moment. Plus, for the next week, you can plug holes in your own or significant other’s closet and still receive it before Christmas. Here’s everything that I’m wearing, gifting, borrowing from Alex Mill and what I’m styling it with.
This men’s red jacket is so versatile and interesting I could hardly wait to wear it without pants to give it its own moment. Bag is Bottega (similar here and here), shoes are Bode, but any Mary Jane will work like these (more sizes here) or these.
Taking a sharp left from durable men’s workwear to a pretty little cashmere polo called Alice. Wearing here with earrings from Orly, one of my favorite places to find great, affordable jewelry. Other pieces from Orly I love here and here. Shorts are Khaite from The Real Real (similar here). Custom necklace is Hart Studio, another favorite for finding quality, unique pieces.
MY ALEX MILL GIFT LIST
I love gifting Alex Mill pieces because when I’ve caught a vibe, I want everyone else riding it too. They’re well-made, timeless, and present an opportunity to style creatively. Aside from everything I’m wearing in this post, also on my list: red, brown, green, and gray cashmere socks. Sharable pants, plus a pair just for you. Cashmere polo as seen above or in chocolate brown. And a cheery cashmere cardigan.
Red shorts offer nowhere to slip your valet ticket and are another The Real Real find, but I found more here, or this similar pair. Alex Mill sweater is the men’s Fisherman Donegal. Finished out this look with a One Of NYC x Khaoure bag, flats (unseen but not forgotten), and this phone case.
Briefly headed back to the Women’s section for the Alex Mill Normandie Alpaca. Forever styled with Levi’s (currently 40% off).
Closing out these giftable, stealable selections with my favorite borrowed item, the men’s Weston Pullover. Styled with these shorts (40% off) or a budget option, this bag—The Row trigger warning—and a vanilla latte :)

Is it safe to say you ordered a medium in all of the sweaters regardless if they are male or female
Curious what size you took in jacket was looking at khaki one earlier this year... and comparing with some vintage ones.. but now you got me on the RED
