Deciding what to invest in for the new season can be overwhelming at the best of times. From celebrities, influencers and bloggers wearing top-to-toe (old) Celine, to the runways telling us cargo pants and tie-dye is the way to go.
But as every seasoned shopper knows, it’s the items you can’t stop thinking about that are worth every cent.
Below, the marie claire fashion team reveals everything they’re currently lusting after.
