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

    I'm all for spring cleaning, but I'd like to make a case for taking inventory of your closet and vanity before the new year begins. What do you need to donate or take to the tailor? Where are there gaps in your wardrobe? Which beauty products are running low? What makeup have you had for years (that's likely expired)? You get the gist.

    For me, this means investing in some new closet staples and a few fun and trendy accessories I know I'll wear for the upcoming season and beyond. As for my beauty situation, I'm mostly focusing on replacing some tried-and-true favorites, but I also want to try some new brands in go-to product categories and test out a couple of skincare devices (in the name of research, of course). Here's what's on my current list.

    Namp;deg;5 Eau de Parfum

    Chanel N°5 Eau de Parfum
    $172 AT CHANEL

    A timeless scent.

    Naplak Patent Leather Ballerinas

    Prada Naplak Patent Leather Ballerinas
    $1050 AT PRADA

    I doubt you'll see me in any other flats once I own these.

    Suede Ballerinas With Crystals

    Prada Suede Ballerinas With Crystals
    $1370 AT PRADA

    Unless, of course, I also find myself owning this pair.

    Short Puffer Coat

    Banana Republic Short Puffer Coat
    $230 AT BANANA REPUBLIC

    The funnel neck on this puffer coat makes it so chic.

    Rouge Coco Gloss

    Chanel Rouge Coco Gloss in Caramel
    $40 AT CHANEL

    I recommend finding a go-to neutral lip gloss that goes with you everywhere. This is mine.

    Prada Aimamp;eacute;e Medium Leather Shoulder Bag

    Prada Aimée Medium Leather Shoulder Bag
    $2850 AT PRADA

    The size and shape of Prada's latest bag has it soaring straight to the top of my wish list. Good thing my birthday is next month.

    Velvet Scrunchie

    Prada Velvet Scrunchie
    $480 AT PRADA

    The only scrunchie I would never let someone borrow (sorry).

    Deven

    Wide-leg denim is my go-to style when I want to wear pumps or heeled boots.

    $68 AT CHANEL

    This is your sign to toss your old (and probably expired) eyeshadow palette and invest in this pretty one from Chanel.

    The perfect winter layering piece that will actually keep you warm.

    Namp;deg;1 De Chanel Revitalizing Eye Serum

    Chanel N°1 De Chanel Revitalizing Eye Serum
    $100 AT CHANEL

    I'm investing in a high-quality eye serum with the hope that I'll actually remember to use it daily (I'll thank myself later).

    Sambae Shoes

    $110 AT ADIDAS

    I'll wear these classic sneakers with trousers and a tee for an easy casual look.

    Banana Republic Lightweight Wool Flannel Long Vest

    Banana Republic Lightweight Wool Flannel Long Vest
    $170 AT BANANA REPUBLIC

    I love the unexpected cut of this vest. It shows just a touch of skin making it the perfect office-to-date-night top.

    Baume Essentiel

    Chanel Baume Essentiel Multi-Use Glow Stick
    $48 AT CHANEL

    My favorite place to apply this multi-use stick is the top of my cheekbones for a little extra glow.

    Italian Leather Knee-High Boot

    Banana Republic Italian Leather Knee-High Boot
    $380 AT BANANA REPUBLIC

    A pointed-toe leather boot is an essential footwear staple in any wardrobe.

    The perfect cropped tee to wear with your favorite high-waisted bottoms.

    Better Off Cleanser

    Trinny London Better Off AHA/PHA Gel Cleanser
    $36 AT TRINNY LONDON

    If you're not already exfoliating with an AHA product a few times a week, allow me to suggest this one.

    One Skin Face SPF 30+

    OneSkin OS-01 Face SPF 30+
    $56 AT ONESKIN

    A tinted sunscreen is the kind of two-in-one product that makes me feel like I'm winning at my morning routine.

    Kurt Geiger Kensington Flexi Court Heel

    Kurt Geiger Kensington Flexi Court Heel
    $125 AT KURT GEIGER

    Animal-print accessories, like these leopard pumps, are an easy way to add interest to a simple look.

    This sunscreen not only protects you from the sun but it's also formulated with anti-aging ingredients. Talk about a win-win.

    Oversized Padded Trench Coat

    Pixie Market Oversized Padded Trench Coat
    $239 AT PIXIE MARKET

    I have a feeling this oversize trench is going to be the hero of my spring capsule wardrobe.

    Charlie Heel

    Tony Bianco Charlie Heel
    $180 AT REVOLVE

    Snakeskin is basically a neutral as far as I'm concerned.

    St. Agni Woven Mini Tote

    St. Agni Woven Mini Tote

    This woven bag caught my attention immediately.
