Article content:
As a fashion editor, being chronically online is mandatory. A New Year’s resolution to quit social media or stop online shopping is impossible for me, as I need constant awareness of the fashion set’s latest obsessions, current attire, and emerging must-have items. This knowledge is essential for my daily reporting and for answering the inevitable texts from friends and family asking, “What are the cool-girl items everyone is wearing right now?” I always have a ready answer, often preemptively.
For instance, despite it still being January, I’ve already pinpointed the items that chic dressers will be wearing and buying in February. My extensive research—watching TikTok videos, scrolling through Instagram, reading articles from respected fashion Substack writers, and integrating the trend forecasts of other Who What Wear editors—has culminated in a list of over 60 items. These are the pieces that experienced, innately stylish shoppers will add to their closets next month if they haven’t already.
From two new bags, DeMellier’s Stockholm and Verafied’s Club, to two pairs of shoes, Khaite’s Clive boots and Dior’s J’Adior Flats, and so much more, keep scrolling to discover the items guaranteed to help you master It-girl style. I don’t want to toot my own horn, but this is my best work to date.

If you had told me last year that in 2026 I’d be dreaming of buying a zebra-print tote bag, I wouldn’t have believed you. But that’s exactly what’s happening right now. I love this style because Nili Lotan has elegantly nailed the pattern, which is hard to do. Plus, the calf hair and black leather handle make it look very luxurious.

This funnel-neck jacket, which also comes in off-white, is one you’ll get a lot of wear out of this spring.

This will become the hardest-working piece in your seasonless wardrobe.

The best part is that you can wash the cashmere yourself instead of taking it to the dry cleaner.
