My 2025 Shopping Bucket List: 30 Fashion and Beauty Items That Made the Cut

Most Wanted is a weekly series in which one editor, staffer, or influencer shares their top 30 must-haves or current wish-list items.

Over the holidays, I had a little more free time than usual to do things I often neglect, such as weeding out unworn items in my closet and unused beauty products in my bathroom. In doing this, and being faced with how over-stuffed my storage space is, I decided that in 2025, I’m only interested in purchasing things that I’ll wear and use repeatedly. No more shoes that I buy for one trip or lipsticks purchased for one special occasion. And the best way to stay on track with my shopping intentions is to make a list and stick to it. So on New Year’s Day, that’s exactly what I did.

My 2025 “bucket list” consists of fifteen fashion items and fifteen specific beauty products that I’m prioritizing this year, all of which I know I’ll wear over and over. So in case you’re seeking a bit of shopping inspiration or are just curious, keep scrolling to check out my list and perhaps even add some of these bucket list items to your own collection.
