Not to brag, but I do have somewhat of a crystal ball esque ability when it comes to predicting or buying fashion items that will maintain their allure for the long haul. Maybe it's intuition, maybe it's experience, or—most likely—maybe it's because I'd hate nothing more than to invest in a piece only to get sick of it after a couple of seasons. Whatever the reason, this has become one of my party tricks, and it will no longer just be my sisters, my friends, and me who benefit from it.
Today, I'll be sharing my top spring picks for those looking to invest in an item they won't regret this spring. You'll find that the below is heavy on bags, shoes, and outerwear, and before you question why, I'll tell you. I truly have found that those are the categories that stay relevant the longest and are least susceptible to trend cycles. Plus, even if they feel "out" one year, odds are they will come back eventually—so hold on to them! Of course, you'll find a handful of exceptions in the form of dresses and knits too, but before I spoil all the fun, simply keep scrolling to see what made the cut.
Not only is this bordeaux color the star of Gucci's latest collection, but it also happens to be extremely versatile and timeless. This season, I'd buy anything in this shade.
Wear them with anything from jeans to dresses to micro shorts.
This might be the trench coat that finally gets me to wear trench coats.
Back to this color of the season.
This bag always stops me in my tracks.
There's a reason it's always selling out.
The little white dress to beat all little white dresses.
I'd take this in any size or color.
I own this jacket and reach for it nonstop.
You'll want to wear this top (and the matching pants) over and over again.
They're so simple yet so Prada.
The barn-jacket craze isn't going anywhere, and this brand has perfected it over the years.
"I really regret buying that black Miu Miu midi skirt," said no one ever.
When it comes to bags and belts, this brand just doesn't miss.
I know a forever piece when I see it.
There's nothing like Chanel tweed—in any form.
In case you're curious what's actually in my cart.
It's giving Kendall.
I don't need to say more about The Row's Margaux bag.
I want this set in every color.
The word you're trying to think of is elegant.
Don't buy this if you don't want people telling you they love it constantly.
It's hard not to want the entire new Altuzarra collection.
Only Courrèges could get me to include a tank in here.
Raffia bags will always be in for spring and summer, and this one is so functional.
I can't wear this without countless people complimenting me.
Unique yet so useful.
