14 Finds We Have Saved to Our Instagram Collections Right Now

Did you catch this post last time? If so, simply continue on for a trove of inspiration and shopping. If not, here’s the rundown… As someone who was actually pretty late in the game (the game here being Instagram’s Saved collections), I now wonder what I was thinking. I love utilizing the feature to save anything from funny memes to interestingly composed photos to fashion pieces I love (and, naturally, want to buy). Speaking of that latter use, I decided to start reaching out to my fellow Who What Wear editors to find out what they’ve been eyeing too. Needless to say, they deliver every time. To see and shop the fashion items we currently have saved to our Instagram collections, just keep reading.

“I’m obsessed with pretty much everything Alessandra Rich has put out this season, but especially her crystal statement earrings.”
“I’m not much of a heels person, but these iridescent pumps are so cool and unexpected—I’m in love.”
“Retro-inspired sweater, without any of the retro odor of vintage. Win!”
“I have been searching for the perfect checkered piece of clothing, and I’m pretty sure these pants are it.”
“I don’t know if I could pull the whole suit off as well as she does, but I’ll be dreaming about this blazer tonight.”
“I’m particularly eyeing this Donni sweater Aimee is wearing, and this is pretty much the ideal fall/winter outfit combination for L.A. weather.”
“I think it’s safe to say that everyone in our office wants these crystal Amina Muaddi heels—myself included. Can you imagine cooler holiday shoes?”

It’s Singles’ Day: Here Are the Sales You Should Be Shopping

Singles’ Day? It’s okay—we weren’t familiar with the holiday either until we started doing some research. But let’s be real: We’ll take any excuse necessary to shop a sale. Singles’ Day is one of China’s largest shopping days; consider it the equivalent of Cyber Monday in the U.S.

This obscure holiday was started back in the ’90s as a silly way to bring some positive attention to the single people out in the world. The choice date is no coincidence, either (11/11 is all ones, in case you missed it). So whether you’re single or not, tomorrow is a day celebrated by some of your favorite retailers, and we wanted you to have the inside scoop on how you can score the best deals. From The Outnet to H&M, get ready to shop the best Singles’ Day sales of 2018.

A Black Friday Shopping List for the Minimalist at Heart

I’m kind of obsessed with minimalist style. Even though the trends everyone’s talking about at the moment are far from subdued, I still have a real sweet spot for clean, pared-down aesthetics. I mean, do the Instagram feeds of influencers like Débora Rosa and Christie Tyler not give you all the feels? Mhm, that’s what I thought. Since the biggest shopping holiday of the year is right around the corner, I thought I’d go ahead and prep a Black Friday capsule shopping list for minimalist style.

At any given time, there are a number of minimal style staples in my online shopping cart, so ahead of Black Friday shopping, I compiled every piece I’m shopping for into one succinct list to share with all my fellow minimalists at heart. In the below edit, you can expect to find items like structured handbags (I’m currently saving up for the Mansur Gavriel Elegant Leather Bag), sleek loafers from The Row, and elegant slip skirts like the one from Georgia Alice. Feel free to add any and all of these minimalist closet staples to your cart, too, so that when all the Black Friday deals hit the web, you’ll know exactly what it is you’re aiming to purchase. Happy shopping, minimalists!

I love the sculptural shape of this jacket.
For work or travel, this tote will come in handy.
Easily dress this up or down.
You’ll wear these every day.
These pared-back loafers are a minimalist’s dream.
This one’s currently in my shopping cart.
From the square neckline to the neutral color, this sweater hits all the minimal trends of the moment.
This sculptural shape is simple but stunning.
A winter closet staple.
Tortoiseshell is a classic that won’t be going out of style anytime soon.
It doesn’t get more classic than these. Also available in more sizes.
You’ll wear this way more than you think you will.
A subtle take on the utility trend.
These are so sleek.
There’s a good reason every fashion girl seems to own this pair.
