30 Fashion and Beauty Items I’ll Be Recommending Over and Over in 2022

Most Wanted is a weekly series in which one editor, staffer, or influencer shares their top 30 must-haves or current wish-list items.

As someone who spends my workdays (and my off-duty time, let’s be honest) recommending fashion items and beauty products to people, I’ll admit that there are some repeats. For example, if a friend or two wants to know what my favorite eye cream is, or if I’m writing a story about my favorite new beauty product discoveries, it’s likely to be the same eye cream (you’ll have to scroll down to see what it is…). And although 2022 has just begun, I’ve already found quite a few other items I plan on talking about a lot this year.

Below, you’ll find 30 of those highly recommendable items, some of which I can vouch for first hand, and others that I just know are great, for one reason or another. Scroll to shop them all.

I’m always on the hunt for simple, relaxed striped sweaters, and this is my new favorite. 

I’m not sure why I haven’t ordered this yet and I’m about to change that.

I’m convinced that these are going to be the next New Balance It shoes.

This might be my new favorite LBD.

Chanel just released its spring beauty collection and it’s safe to say I’m obsessed with this smoky rose nail polish.

Found my new winter-to-spring transitional shoes.

Orange is about to be everywhere, my friends.

I advise ordering these for all of your 2022 beach trips.

As I say every season, Nanushka does it again.

I’m always on the hunt for a new cream eyeshadow and this one is my current favorite.

This gorgeous Saint Laurent bag is perfect for just about any occasion.

I’ll be recommending this affordable top until it inevitably goes out of stock.

This beautiful coat is one of 2022’s first It items.

This genius LBD can be worn four different ways, so feel free to wear it over and over.

You’ll wake up with perfect skin after using this gel-like sleeping mask.

Trust me—these will be on every fashion girl’s feet once it’s warm enough.

I’ve yet to find a cooler pair of mis-matched earrings.

The cut-out trend is far from over, and this top is an excellent way to do it.

Just in case you’ve been looking for the perfect low-rise jeans, I found them.

I just started using Airebrush and for the first time ever in my life, I can actually blow out my hair (as opposed to rough drying).

I just tried Everlane’s new Perform 24/7 Leggings, and I can vouch that they deserve lots of hype.

You’re welcome for finding the perfect neutral heels that you’ll wear over and over.

This year is going to be all about saturated colors, making this coat a smart purchase.

Prepare for your eye area to look smooth, firm, and bright.

Kinn jewelry is 100% worth the investment.

I’m not sure what took me so long to try Totême jeans but I’m hooked, thanks to this pair.

This fragrance is not your average rose perfume—it’s so much more.

I plan on putting this expensive-looking blazer in lots of stories this year.

I don’t love spending more than $100 on pajamas—unless they’re by Lunya.

These are the most comfortable sneakers I’ve ever encountered—you can quote me.
