Most Wanted is a weekly series in which one editor, staffer, or influencer shares their top 30 must-haves or current wish-list items.

Not to be dramatic, but this year has been a lot. From elections to moving houses to welcoming a new puppy (who I love dearly, but might as well be a tornado), let's just say I've earned a little me time. And what better way to recharge than with a little retail therapy? My online shopping cart is practically overflowing with things I've been eyeing all year—luxury beauty products from Chanel, ridiculously cozy blankets to curl up with on cold nights, and, of course, fashion finds I can't resist (Bags! Shoes! Sweaters!). There's something about treating yourself that feels extra special during the holidays—it's like wrapping up the year in a bow. So yes, I'm fully leaning into self-gifting mode because I deserve it, and honestly? You do, too. Keep scrolling to see the pieces I'm about to splurge on—consider it your permission to do the same.
