Most Coveted is a new shopping series sharing our editors’ curation of the must-know items they can’t stop thinking about.
I’m 90% sure everyone here is familiar with the clean-girl aesthetic because it’s been going viral lately for its no-fuss, minimalist approach to beauty and fashion. That said, I’ve been living the aesthetic since my early teens. I have always been a lover of minimalist style and have never strayed into colorful and printed pieces for apparel. And though I do love to play around with my makeup, nowadays, I’m more into the “10 minutes and I’m out the door” look.
Seasonal, tonal dressing just adds to my clean-girl aesthetic, and since we’ve seen an array of retailers drop their variations over the last few weeks, it only seems fair to add a few more pieces to my collection. Below, I’ve curated an edit of the 30 fashion and beauty products I’ve already bookmarked.
First things first: the ultimate cream blush for that sun-kissed glow.
A linen dress in the perfect spring color—I’m obsessed!
Speaking of dresses, I also need a classic navy piece in my wardrobe.
A colleague recommended this tinted moisturizer, and I don’t think I’ll be reverting back to foundation any time soon.
A black ribbed tank to break up a completely neutral outfit. Also get 15% off between April 19 – April 26 (8 days) with code SPRING15.
I’ll be living in these shorts once the weather gets extra warm.
These slides are crafted from a muted raffia and are finished with a block heel. They’re the ultimate spring shoe.
When I’m after that warm, “my lips but better” shade, this is the product I’ll be reaching for.
Nothing really says clean-girl style like a lightweight white cotton PJ set. So I’m adding this Soma one to my collection.
Not to forget the shorts too.
The twisted vamp straps and buttery-soft leather of these slides add a laid-back yet sophisticated finish to any outfit.
Dress this shirt up with a maxi skirt or down with a pair of jeans.
Have overalls ever looked so chic?
Brown mascara is the best-kept secret for those natural-looking lashes.
This shirt is just feeding my linen obsession.
You’ll want to live in this.
A simple breezy maxi dress is also a must.
The breeziest tapered pants for those warm evening walks.
For days when I want to add a little more color to my natural makeup look.
These pants are just effortlessly cool.
My fellow editors and I are obsessed with this Loewe basket bag.
The clogs that broke the internet! I’m adding the brown pair to my vacation wardrobe this season.
There isn’t a spring soirée that this dress won’t be perfect for.
This perfume embodies everything you could think of in a floral scent without being too overpowering.
Is it even possible to go without a linen set this summer?
Likewise.
Imagine these sandals with the matching set above.
Paired simply with a plain white tee, these could easily become my new go-to jeans.
I’ll get so much wear out of this classic V-neck T-shirt.
I couldn’t resist adding a bronze bikini to my cart.
This clutch will be coming with me on vacation this year. Pro tip: It also doubles as a makeup bag.
Stacked next to my mini huggies these large hoops will just look stunning.
A boat-neck tank that is effortlessly chic.
