Here’s What’s on Our Editor-in-Chief’s April Shopping List

Staple pieces that will become forever favourites.

by : Joanna Fox- Apr 5th, 2024

Overconsumption is bad for the planet—we all know that. But there is so much we can do to alter our habits. I love fashion, so one of the biggest changes I can make is to the way I buy clothing. Beyond making vintage purchases a new normal, I’m going to look for timeless pieces, accessories and beauty staples that I can slowly collect to build a more sustainable forever wardrobe. Here are just a few ideas to help inspire a long-term closet that you’ll love—and wear—for many years to come.

GUERLAIN ABEILLE ROYALE ADVANCED YOUTH WATERY OIL

Fine-tuning your basics includes streamlining your beauty kit, and this facial oil is a multi-purpose cult favourite for a reason: It makes skin look brighter, smoother and firmer—I kid you not.

Price: From $77

SHOP

“LILI” TEE, ANINE BING

A white tee is everything, and this one from Anine Bing is my most beloved wardrobe piece. I wear it with everything, from a cool leather skirt to a casual pair of jeans, and it always looks amazing.

Price: $140

SHOP

“MATHILDE” MULES, REJINA PYO

Mules are the best shoe secret weapon—they mix comfort and style while bringing a chic touch to any look.

Price: $511

SHOP

“MARCELINO” JUMPSUIT, RACHEL COMEY

As we’ve seen, denim never goes out of style, and a jumpsuit—what I also like to call a “one- and-done outfit”—is a great way to rock this effortlessly cool fabric.

Price: $925

SHOP

SKIRT, SILK LAUNDRY

There’s a reason this flowy silk skirt is on Silk Laundry’s list of essentials. It can be dressed up or down in any season, and it will never go out of style.

Price: $365

SHOP

“BOLD HERRINGBONE” NECKLACE, MEJURI

I think I’m drawn to a good herringbone necklace because my mother always wore one when I was young. It’s a tried-and-true classic.

Price: $268

SHOP

“INFLATED ROUND” SUNGLASSES, LOEWE

You don’t need multiple pairs of sunglasses. Just take the time to find those magical shades that make you feel like you can take on the world and commit.

Price: $490
