I Asked 7 Influencers to Share What's On Their 2023 Wish Lists

My first port-of-call when I’m blanking on outfit ideas? Instagram, of course. The sheer volume of fashion-savvy users regularly posting their #OOTDs means I'm guaranteed a wave of inspiration with one quick scroll. Minimum effort, maximum reward.

But I don't just use social media to find looks to recreate. It's also a handy resource when I need guidance on what's worth buying. Especially because, at this point, there are certain influencers I follow whose taste is top-notch every time, and I know I can trust their judgement. When I'm in a shopping rut but struggling with some serious gaps in my wardrobe, all I need to do is consult their feeds and suddenly my wish list has reached unruly lengths.

The first month of the year is prime time to arm yourself with fresh pieces you can wear for the next 12 months and beyond. So, I've taken it one step further and asked a handful of influencer which items they'll be adding to their rotation—before they've actually done so. It's always fun being ahead of the game. Take a look at hero buys these style insiders are lusting after now, and hear how they'll be incorporating them into their wardrobes for the season ahead.

Unsurprisingly, her 2023 picks didn't disappoint.
