Most Wanted is a weekly series in which one editor, staffer, or influencer shares their top 30 must-haves or current wish-list items.
Hot take: Great style requires styling. Let me explain. Lately, it seems that you can't scroll through social media without some form of discourse around the disappearance of personal style because of a myriad of factors, including the popularization of minimal fashion aesthetics and the ever-evolving landscape of trends. I'd argue that personal style isn't dead, but rather, the power of styling has been underplayed. After all, anyone can secure the hottest luxury item of the season or buy a few foundational staples. Actually wearing them (rather than the other way around), however, is a different story.
Making anything feel unique to oneself requires two things—creativity and an extensive curation of accessories. If you're short on the latter, you're in luck. As an avid collector, I know a thing or two about accessories. In the vein of helping you up your style game, I've spent hours combing through our favorite retailers in search of the best shoes, bags, jewelry, and so much more for summer. Ahead, you'll find 33 editor-approved accessories to make your summer wardrobe feel shiny and new again. Whether you're a minimalist or maximalist, these items will prove the point that style is alive and well.
