I shop for a living as the shopping director at Who What Wear. No, I'm not personally shopping (although that would be amazing), but I do source the market to create shopping lists to fulfill any of your wardrobe needs. Five retailers I turn to for stellar finds? J.Crew, Banana Republic, Zara, Nordstrom, and Shopbop. Below, you'll find a list of the items I think are giving right now, meaning they're wildly chic.
I separated the edit by retailer so you can jump to your favorite or scroll through the entire offering. The range spans from elevated basics, such as cute tops and perfect jeans, to statement-making picks, including gorgeous dresses and heeled sandals for any upcoming soirées. Happy shopping.
