Exploring style from different perspectives is often key for sartorial inspiration. On that note, we routinely tap various creatives to gain further insight into what's noteworthy. And that's what brings us to where we are today with viewpoints from two fashion executives.
Enter Libby Page, market director at Net-a-Porter, and Olie Arnold, style director at Mr Porter. They both have a pulse on what matters in fashion given their leadership roles at two of the largest online retailers. Below, they're sharing the spring investment pieces they think will become It items among the fashion crowd in both the womenswear and menswear spaces. Go on for more, and shop the pieces if you're interested in investing in a designer item this season.

"Finally, I can buy sunglasses from Khaite! I have been searching for a pair of white sunglasses to wear with neutrals for some time. Black often feels too heavy, so this pair will keep things light and bright."
"Toteme recently launched a new bag—the T-Lock leather clutch. I especially love the clasp, and the shape works perfect for smart and casual looks. It is exciting to see this brand branching into a new category in a big way."
"The knot has become a new signature for Bottega Veneta. This mule feels sleek, sharp and very modern."
"Spring may be on its way, but this tailored coat is a classic that'll last forever."
"New Balance might be giving us collaboration after collaboration, but nothing beats a classic in my opinion."
"Last spring, Toteme's matching monogram sets were a huge hit. I have no doubt they'll still dominate this year, too, but I love the idea of a silk (almost pajama-style) pant worn with a tank top for the ultimate relaxed summer look. Keep things elevated with fine jewelry and a pair of The Row's Ginza Flip-Flops in tan [below]."
Olie Arnold, Style Director, Mr Porter
"Summer is coming, so it's time to invest in a new pair of sunglasses. Jacques Marie Mage is the master of recreating classic designs with a modern twist and from the best materials. These will never go out of style. Just don't lose them."
"The designer of the moment, Grace Wales Bonner, has a wonderful design handwriting, and this play on the Ivy League classic is my buy of the season."
"Loafers are the 'hard shoe' of the summer, and this two-tone pair is a great twist on the classic penny style. They go with literally everything—even a pair of shorts."
"Sky High Farm is one of our new designers on-site, and this piece is a fun take on a workwear staple. I specifically admire that the brand is in support of the nonprofit organization it is named after."
"For those cold summer nights, this bomber has a nod to the '70s but feels very on point."
"Tailoring is back, but not just in the classic form. Having a blazer on hand to throw over a tee will be your go-to this spring."
"Get beach ready with these fun floral shorts. Teal is a key color for the season and is an easy color to wear."
