With fall in full swing, we're back with our latest installment of Shop TODAY's Hot List: a selection of editor-curated, under-the-radar finds and buzzworthy new launches that we think our readers should know about.
Ahead of the busy season, we've done our research, scouring social media, monitoring brand launches and trying viral products ourselves in order to pull together this trend report. Shop TODAY editorial director Adrianna Brach stopped by TODAY and the 3rd hour of TODAY to share some of the trending finds we're loving right now. Later, Chassie Post joins TODAY with Hoda and Jenna to share even more favorites, plus exclusive deals on some of our finds.
Brach is calling this barn jacket (sometimes also called a chore coat) the "it" jacket for fall this year. These styles from Old Navy are beloved by reviewers for their nice weight, roomy fit, deep pockets and corduroy collar detail. The canvas option is available in standard, petite and tall cuts, and both the canvas and quilted versions come in sizes XS to 4X.
Move over, skinny jeans! Wide leg styles are everywhere this fall. For $28, you can get in on the trend with this affordable option from Target that comes in a ton of colors and sizes 00 to 30. Brach says that the denim has the perfect amount of stretch, and she says they're so easy to dress up or down with just about anything you already have in your closet.
This is currently Amazon's No. 1 bestseller in eye treatment serums, with over 5,000 ratings. It has ginseng, retinol and niacinamide to brighten the under-eye area and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It's good for all skin types and super hydrating too -- the brand says you can even use it to tackle other areas prone to wrinkles, like the neck.
Say goodbye to clumpy lashes! This is the beauty tool you never knew you needed. Since we discovered it last year, this eyelash comb has been a top seller, helping to give you perfectly separated lashes every time. Brach says it's so easy to use -- simply hold it at the base of your eye and blink through. Did we mention it's less than $5?
This fabric freshener spray is like dry shampoo for your clothes, Brach says. Instead of covering scents with fragrance and chemicals, it uses probiotics to eliminate the bacteria that makes your clothes smell at the source, the brand says. It's safe to use on all fabrics, making it genius for pieces you'd normally have to dry clean or clothes that have been tucked away in the closet all season (and smell like it).
It's time to break out our favorite sweaters and cardigans! If last year's tops are looking a little worn, try this fabric shaver with over 130,000 ratings on Amazon to remove excess fuzz, lint and pills on sweaters and get them looking brand new again.
"This is a mainstay for me," vouches Brach. "I use it on all my sweaters, tops, leggings and even upholstery on furniture at home. Such a cheap way to make clothes look fresh and new again!"
It's finally sweater weather! Cardigans are the perfect piece for fall, and we found men's and women's options both under $40. The beauty of a cardigan is that you can dress it up or down and it looks polished but feels so cozy and comfy. We love that this women's pick has a generous longer length to give you a bit of extra coverage, too.
Did you know that running shoes should be replaced every six months? The Brooks brand has a long history and reputation in the running world -- a podiatrist we spoke to says that Brooks are one of the top recommended brands for gym shoes. This model has a light cushion, a springy feel and absorbs impact with every step. Associate editor Sierra Hoeger has logged miles and miles in them.
We know and love Dyson for their innovative home and hair tools, but the brand has now expanded into styling products -- and we're obsessed. We tried the new Dyson Chitosan launches (the pre-styling creams and post-styling serum) on staffers' hair types ranging from straight to curly, and we loved that they gave our styles impressive hold without weighing the hair down or feeling crunchy. Plus, a little goes a long way, so these will last you a while.
There never seems to be enough light, but this neat portable lamp can brighten up home and office spaces. It's battery operated, so you don't need to worry about any cords, and it folds down into a compact little puck, so you can move it around anywhere you need a little extra light. Brach says you can even use this for things like applying makeup when there isn't enough sunlight during the day.
Tailgating season is here! This portable, high quality camping chair holds up to 330 pounds, but weighs less than three pounds. It comes with its own carrying bag with a strap to make carrying it around easier and is available in a few different colors and a high-back option for added head and neck support.
10,692: That's the number of therapeutic spikes the brand says are on this acupressure mat and pillow! It sounds wild, but many of the over 50,000 Amazon reviewers say that this spiky set is great for reducing pain, muscle tension, stress and even headaches. The brand recommends daily use for 10 to 30 minutes and claims that it can help improve circulation, release endorphins and boost energy levels.
This pick is what Post calls the jacket for fall. She says classic tweed jackets are a timeless piece that always come back into style. This option looks just like expensive designer versions, but it's under $40. The chic find pairs with everything from jeans to dresses and comes in three colors.
For less than $20, you can get the puffy heart-shaped pendant that is everywhere right now, according to Post. The chunky gold chain and charm is right in line with some of the biggest jewelry trends we've seen this year. There are a few different shapes available, if hearts aren't your thing, too.
Lululemon has done it again! If it's anything like their cult-loved belt bags, this new launch from the brand is bound to be all the rage this season. These quilted totes are topping the charts for style and practicality, with enough room for all of the essentials and yet so lightweight. Post loves both the 12L and 5L sizes, depending on what the day has in store.

Brach says that she's been using the gadget about once a week for the last five years and adds that it's "one of the better beauty tool investments I've made."
"It's so easy to use and I love that I could use it while watching TV on my couch and then see results so quickly," she says.

Snag these and you may never have to buy another pair of disposable tights ever again! These editor-loved tights are designed to be rip-resistant and I can personally vouch for them -- I've had the same pair for more than two years now!
A statement belt can add some style to even the most basic outfits. This cowboy-core belt is designed to fit multiple waist sizes, thanks to its woven design that can be secured at any point along the weave.
According to Post, people love this necklace so much that they stop her on the street to ask where she bought it. She even wore this necklace during the Hot List segment -- it goes with everything!
Make doing the dishes a little more fun with this specialty soap from Mrs. Meyer's that comes in a fun scent for fall. The bestselling dish soap has over 45,000 ratings on Amazon.
This popular candle from the minds (and noses) behind Snif and Half Baked Harvest sold out last year, so you're going to want to snag it before it's gone this year! The scent is perfectly pumpkin-y, with notes of cinnamon, maple and whiskey, and comes in a few different sizes.
Looking to swap in a new perfume for the season? This new launch from Molton Brown marries spicy saffron, rose and patchouli for an intoxicating scent that lasts all day.
