    Most Coveted is a shopping series sharing our editors' curation of the must-know items they can't stop thinking about.

    We still have two months of summer remaining, and we refuse to let one day—or a great summer outfit—go to waste. That means shopping for lightweight dresses, sleek sunglasses, and glowy beauty products is, in fact, the correct approach until further notice. Sure, we might consider items that can transition to the season ahead, but let's focus on fall when it's actually cool outside. Now that we're on the same page, let's talk about the items all the It girls are wearing and using right now. Below, you'll find 28 items that are in their closets or suitcases as we speak.
