Most Wanted is a weekly series in which one Who What Wear team member or friend of the brand will share the top 30 fashion and beauty finds on their current wish list.
As someone easily tempted by bright shiny objects, I've made my fair share of shopping mistakes. But I can't blame myself for wanting to try the latest trends—after all, I am a fashion editor. That said, I've turned over a new leaf. I've grown tired of retiring items I've only worn once or twice. It's not a great feeling, so I've recently been focusing my shopping energy (and funds) on items with longevity. Even if I won't be wearing all of these items 10 years from now, there's a lot to be said for something I can wear for at least four years.
In case we're on the same wavelength and you're also looking for a more timeless, versatile wardrobe, I'm sharing 30 items that meet that criteria. Scroll to shop my picks.
This white tee is the GOAT.
These are as investment-worthy as sandals can get. They sell out summer after summer, even years after their release.
Next up is a gorgeous summer skirt that can easily be dressed up or down.
Quiet luxury at its finest.
There are a million ways to style this structured cardigan.
You can't go wrong with Wayfarers—they look good on everyone.
The styling of this linen shirt is great, but I also love it as a swimsuit cover-up.
These are even more stunning in person, and I promise you'll want to wear them every day.
As someone who prefers classic swimsuits, this chic dusty rose one speaks to me.
White jeans don't get cooler than these.
You'll want to carry this every day in the summer. I especially love that it fits over the shoulder.
Zara really nailed it with this simple navy minidress.
There are a lot of white button-downs to choose from out there, but this one is supreme.
Dream watch.
As someone who doesn't go anywhere in the summer without a jacket of some kind (because of A/C), this is a wardrobe staple.
You may never need to buy another black belt again.
Simple and chic.
I adore tops like this. They work for day or night and dressy or casual occasions.
Toe jewelry? Sign me up.
This is perfect for wearing with jeans in the summer.
People absolutely lose it over these pants—just check the Nordstrom reviews.
There's a reason Skims tees are always sold out.
When it comes to baseball caps, I recommend keeping it classic.
The skirt from Zara's sister brand looks ultra-expensive, and this color goes with everything.
This is clearly a massive investment, but I don't know if I've ever seen a more timeless bag.
I can't imagine a more perfect knit dress than this.
I'm in shock that this stunning beaded top isn't sold out.
I predict I'll still be wearing this ten years from now.
Why spend a ton on a trench coat when Mango makes ones as excellent as this?
Nordstrom pajamas are my best-kept secret.
