The start of a new year feels like a fitting time to take stock of your closet. Everyone is reflecting on how they want to show up in the new year, and that includes your wardrobe. What we wear impacts how we feel, after all, so being thoughtful about our personal style has benefits far past the superficial. I just completed a major closet overhaul, donating pieces I don't wear anymore to make room for items that feel more aligned with my current style. As I've written about before, I've become much more strategic with my purchases to ensure I only buy pieces I absolutely love.
Since I now have some extra closet space, it's only fitting I peruse the new arrivals from some of my favorite retailers. Just as I suspected, the latest offerings do not disappoint, and Zara, Shopbop, and Ref are particularly elevated right now. I saved 30 items I would love to add to my closet, but of course, I can't actually buy all of these, so I'm sharing them here in case you, too, are doing some 2025 shopping. Below are the most fashionable items from Zara, Shopbop, and Reformation—from polished outerwear to elegant accessories and romantic dresses.
ZARA
This is all I want to wear right now.
Pantone named this the color of the year.
The matching skirt is just too good.
Fun hardware details.
So polished.
This coat makes winter much more enticing.
A very good pair of jeans.
The color and shape make these look so elevated.
SHOPBOP
