Shop Our Editor’s 22 Best Fashion Picks for May 2026

Trust me—buy it is a series where editor-at-large Nicole Eshaghpour curates her favorite fashion products shoppable for Who What Wear readers.

Welcome to the latest installment of Trust Me—Buy It! Just a warning, I’ve been everywhere (literally and figuratively) over the past few months, so you can expect the shopping roundup you’re about to encounter to reflect that feeling! Home, holidays, early pregnancy, late pregnancy – we’ve got more for all of these, so buckle up. As always, you can expect a mix of largely my favorite basics (including several duplicates because they’re so good), as well as, of course, the occasional “fun” discovery. This time, they are mostly in the beach wear category because this is the season. If any of these made your ears perk up, just keep scrolling to get started.

These four items—my J.Crew rollneck, Donnie cargo, The Row Idaho bag, and Salomon’s—are heavy in my rotation right now, and I’m dreading the day it’s too hot for knitwear in New York.

It features a loose, comfortable silhouette, paired with resin stone detailing on the front, ideal for anything at the beach or a night out.
