42 Spring Beauty and Fashion Items on an Editor’s Wish List
(Image credit: @aniyahmorinia)
Most Wanted is a weekly series in which one editor, staffer, or influencer shares their top 30 must-haves or current wish-list items.
Every new season, I convince myself that I need a complete wardrobe refresh. Don’t worry—I’ve been here before and know how to quell the temptations when my wish list gets too long. But I’m an editor, after all, and nothing can stop me from perusing the internet, adding things to my cart, and sharing them with you. My spring list is pretty random, including but not limited to Western pieces, statement designer bags, under-$100 thong sandals, blood-orange-flavored colostrum, and juicy lip glosses. I’ve included some splurges, but I like to think a financial advisor would applaud the number of affordable items on this list. Most of them are bound to sell out, so I won’t take up any more of your time. Keep scrolling for some irresistible spring items.
