Instagram Stories are the land of my death scroll. I don’t know what it is about the constant tapping through everyone’s day that soothes me, but I just can’t stop doing it. What makes me most engaged as a viewer is seeing the question boxes pop up. I want to know everything about everyone’s life, so it makes sense.
I decided to take over the Who What Wear Instagram Stories and propose a simple prompt: “Whether it’s a wardrobe staple or a trend, tell us what’s in your dream wardrobe for 2024, and we’ll shop them out in an upcoming story.” I learned quickly that you guys have serious taste. Requests for shopping links for full skirts and leopard print tell me you have your eyes on the future of fashion. I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to shop out these items, so below, discover my findings.
To whoever asked for affordable, quality basics… same. I’m always on the hunt for basics that last a long time without breaking the bank, and here are a few options that I’d put my money behind.

Nothing piques my interest when I’m looking at an outfit like a pair of silver flats. Even if you’re just wearing a pair of jeans and a white T-shirt, your ensemble will always stand out when you add a pop of metallic.
