It's hard to believe we're on the final week of fashion month. It's gone by so fast! My eyes have been glued to my Instagram feed, and I've been busy stalking all the swoon-worthy looks and soaking in all the new trends being sent down the runways, which has me in quite the shopping mood (yes, believe it or not, for spring clothes). The more garments (and shoes, handbags, belts, headbands, etc.) that catch my eye, the more I keep adding to my shopping cart, and it’s getting a bit out of hand.
But let's be real: I can’t buy everything (I’m still waiting for that unlimited shopping budget to happen), so I’m turning to my fashionable co-workers, who have gone to countless shows over the years and can thus share which trends are actually worth investing in. Best of all, I can preorder those splurge-worthy spring pieces straight from the runway via Moda Operandi's Trunkshows and have them delivered right as warmer weather hits. Curious to know what made the cut? Keep scrolling to see the editor-approved picks for the upcoming season—we're talking everything from Oscar de la Renta to Carolina Herrera.
