30 Fashion and Beauty Items I'll Be Recommending Over and Over in 2022
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 someone who spends my workdays (and my off-duty time, let's be honest) recommending fashion items and beauty products to people, I'll admit that there are some repeats. For example, if a friend or two wants to know what my favorite eye cream is, or if I'm writing a story about my favorite new beauty product discoveries, it's likely to be the same eye cream (you'll have to scroll down to see what it is). And although 2022 has just begun, I've already found quite a few other items I plan on talking about a lot this year.
Below, you'll find 30 of those highly recommendable items—some of which I can vouch for first hand and others that I just know are great for one reason or another. Scroll to shop them all.
I'm always on the hunt for simple, relaxed striped sweaters, and this is my new favorite.
I'm not sure why I haven't ordered this yet, but I'm about to change that.
I'm convinced that these are going to be the next New Balance It shoes.
Chanel just released its spring beauty collection and it's safe to say I'm obsessed with this smoky rose nail polish.
I'm always on the hunt for a new cream eye shadow, and this one is my current favorite.
This gorgeous Saint Laurent bag is perfect for just about any occasion.
I'll be recommending this affordable top until it inevitably goes out of stock.
This beautiful coat is one of 2022's first It items.
This genius LBD can be worn four different ways, so feel free to wear it over and over.

Trust me—these will be on every fashion girl's feet once it's warm enough.
I've yet to find a cooler pair of mismatched earrings.
The cutout trend is far from over, and this top is an excellent way to do it.
Just in case you've been looking for the perfect low-rise jeans, I found them.
I just started using Airebrush and for the first time ever in my life, I can actually blow out my hair (as opposed to rough drying).
I just tried Everlane's new Perform 24/7 Leggings, and I can vouch that they deserve lots of hype.
You're welcome for finding the perfect neutral heels that you'll wear over and over.
This year is going to be all about saturated colors, making this coat a smart purchase.
Prepare for your eye area to look smooth, firm, and bright.
I'm not sure what took me so long to try Totême jeans, but I'm hooked, thanks to this pair.
This fragrance is not your average rose perfume—it's so much more.
I don't love spending more than $100 on pajamas—unless they're by Lunya.
These are the most comfortable sneakers I've ever encountered—you can quote me.
