Most Wanted is a weekly series in which one editor, staffer, or influencer shares their top 30 must-haves or current wish-list items.
There's only one word I would use to describe the items sitting in my summer shopping cart right now: pretty. Summer is the best time to tap into my feminine energy and choose dainty pieces to round out that summer wardrobe. I've seen so many things lately that fall into this category that they're just too good not to share.
But first, we have to discuss this dress that I wore the other day. Post
sun shower, the pretty yellow hue gave me an instant glow. I'm going to let this number set the tone for the rest of this story. Expect every piece that follows to be just as breathtaking.

Rem Maxi Dress
I've seen a lot of cotton poplin dresses but none like this. The pleats, cutouts, ruching, and all. It just may be the most beautiful thing I've ever worn.
Kara
Silver Crystal Mesh Headscarf
If Carrie Bradshaw were still running through the streets of New York City, she would definitely be wearing an embellished headscarf this summer.
Lioness
Vineyard Crop Cardigan
Skin-baring cardigans were an It item in the middle of January. If that doesn't tell you how dedicated the fashion crowd is to this item, I don't know what will.

There's something about this print that reminds me of a trip to Italy.

Ask any fashion girl, and she'll tell you she just bought a pair of cargo pants.
