I Made a Shopping List of 29 Summer Pieces Cool Fashion People Are Wearing
Most Wanted is a weekly series in which one editor, staffer, or influencer shares their top 30 must-haves or current wish-list items.
As a fashion editor, I'm constantly keeping an eye on what all the cool insiders are wearing. From Instagram to street style snaps to celeb looks and what I'm seeing people wear IRL, I'm always taking screenshots and making mental notes about the pieces that are having a moment. As we head into summer, there are some cool items that are already in heavy rotation and others that are just starting to bubble up that will be season defining.
Ahead, I made a shopping list of 29 cool summer fashion finds that I'm already spotting on insiders. From the sandals that have landed on every cool person's wish list to the quiet-luxury bags that are huge to the designer heels that are about to get even bigger, these are the finds to add to your cart right now.
I'm already predicting these will be the shoes of the summer.
The Hermès Picotin is the bag taking off from the brand in 2023.
Fashion people are getting behind the latest New Balance x Aimé Leon Dore sneakers.
High Sport has mastered high-quality pieces you can wear every day.
The Saint Laurent bag I'm seeing everywhere.
