Most Wanted is a weekly series in which one editor, staffer, or influencer shares their top 30 must-haves or current wish-list items.
When the weather’s feeling blah, I turn to the one thing that never fails to lift my spirits: spring fashion. I scroll through my old photos from April to September—take in the tan lines, golden-hour spritzes, and beach days—and immediately, I’m back in my warm-weather element. Luckily, one of the perks of living in L.A. is that a rogue 75-degree day could come at any time, so my camera roll, Saved folder, and Notes app are bursting with outfit ideas for the sunny days ahead. I’ve found some real gems, and I’m dangerously close to hitting “order” on more than a few of them (okay fine, some have already made it to my doorstep). Ahead, I’m sharing all the joyful little fashion finds that are getting me excited for spring, including affordable sandals that I’ll wear on repeat and Carrie Bradshaw–coded shirts practically made for city strolls.
