46 Key 2021 Shopping Buys, Based on Our Editors' Personal Style
Who What Wear’s fashion editors are expert shoppers, and that’s an understatement. After all, it’s our jobs to search runways, retailers, and the internet for the best and the coolest in fashion. With that in mind, I always have a colleague to turn to whether I need to find out the trends that are about to be everywhere, insight about on-the-rise brands, or someone to weigh in about what’s happening at fashion week. My Slack chats are packed with messages to my co-workers about their thoughts on all of the above.
Who What Wear fashion editors each have their own takes on personal style. Some love bold colors and statement prints, while others prefer to stick to neutrals. Then there are some editors who have closets stocked with Wholesale Replica Bag emerging brands, and others who are always on the vintage hunt. One common theme? Our fashion editor style is constantly evolving as we add new items to our closets or get inspired about what is happening in the fashion world. So what defines our fashion editor style and what do we actually wear? Ahead, get to know our team a little bit more as we weigh in on personal style and our key shopping buys for 2021.
Shop my picks:
I'm wearing sneakers now more than ever, so I'm looking to upgrade to a more directional pair.
Shop Kat's picks:
Shop Yusra's picks:
"Spring days can still be a little chilly, so I'll happily be wearing sweater vests over T-shirts. While they may have started off as a trend, they're definitely a closet staple for me now and will be for the foreseeable future."
"Ever since high school I've had a deep love for cool printed pants. Most people might find them hard to style, but I think they add such a fun element to any look and can be worn in a variety of ways if you take the time to play around with them. I've had my eyes on these from Reformation for quite some time."
Shop Lauren's picks:
"A loud second skin top with any of my favorite jeans will be my uniform this year."
Shop Bobby's picks:
Shop Indya's picks:
"I joke that Margiela Tabis are a part of the Brooklyn, 'I work in fashion' starter pack; sooo many of my friends have them. Not gonna lie, I thought they were weird until recently when I saw this ballet flat version—now I’m obsessed!"
Shop Erin's picks:
"The top I'm wearing in this photo is sold out, but the same print is on this lovely mini dress. It's a very Bridgerton print and reminds me of wallpaper in an English country house. What's not to love?"
"I love blazers because they let me get away with wearing jeans and a white tee every single day without looking lazy. I'm truly obsessed with this one in particular by Rag Bone. It has a standing collar and no lapel, which makes it feel fresher than your average blazer. The army green color is also fantastic."
"If you follow me on Instagram, you'll know that I wear tons of printed dresses. I consider myself a print connoisseur if you will, so I don't say this lightly: Agua by Agua Bendita has some of the most beautiful patterns in existence."
Shop Allyson's picks:
Shop Jasmine's picks:
"Again, I love traditional pieces like slip skirts that come with unique details, and this tie-knot skirt from Christopher Esber has been living in my mind rent-free for quite some time."
"I've loved bucket hats for a hot minute but have yet actually to invest in one; if I did, I'd opt for this black one from Jaquemus as it can be paired with just about anything."
"Anyone that knows me knows that I'm a sucker for heels, in all their forms, but especially when they come in the form of knee-high boots as stunning as these Brother Vellies x Pyer Moss ones. If life imitates art, then these shoes are the canvas for the entire look."
Shop Judith's picks:
"I love a cute polo top and this one with elevated details is pure perfection. Just look at the back."
