I'm Planning My 2025 Wardrobe—30 Madewell, COS, and J.Crew Items That Appeal to Me
This year, I’m looking to Madewell, COS, and J.Crew for my simple yet chic wardrobe staples—items that can easily move between spur-of-the-moment dinners with friends, Zoom calls, and what do you know, preschool tours. I started with broad ideas like clean lines, dark neutrals, well-tailored jeans, and chic outerwear. As I spent more time with my Pinterest wish list for 2025, I got more specific, narrowing down exactly what will fill some holes in my closet as well as some pretty new trend pieces that will bring new life and a bit of joy.
Stylish flats are a must—I spied some ballet flats on Madewell's site that are sure to sell out. Animal print is a trend that's just now seeping into my consciousness, which means I must have J.Crew's leopard-print pleated skirt, not to mention the zebra-print heels. I’ve also been on the hunt for a new bag, all of which I'm sharing with you just below.
