Most Wanted is a weekly series in which one editor, staffer, or influencer shares their top 30 must-haves or current wish-list items.
There are many great things about my job, one of them being that I get to have about a hundred browser tabs open on the daily for research purposes. One of the not-so-great parts of my job, however, is having my computer crash at least once a day because of said research. At least that's what happened when I began my search for the best warm-weather finds earlier this month.
Come summer, my poor laptop always has to work overtime because, to me, summer is the shopping season. It's a fresh start—a time to spruce up your wardrobe and inject some fun into your life via cheerful clothes, accessories, and makeup. Which brings me to today's important topic: extra-special finds that need your attention. There are bucket hats, puff-sleeve dresses, and even the perfect purple nail polish! Keep scrolling for the best 30 fashion and beauty picks I've come across for summer. Have at it!
