My annual wish list post is always a popular one. I really enjoy curating this as a little snapshot of the special pieces I am eying adding to my closet and my life in the new year.
As always, I work to prioritize investment pieces that I’ll wear and use time and time again. I’m rather loyal to brands and I often prioritize quality over quantity when it comes to my new purchases. After all, the better you invest in pieces, the more likely you are to get better wear and use out of something.
It’s why you often see me wearing the same styles year after year and why I am always so proud of seeing certain brands and items on my bestseller lists year after year.
I doubt that it’ll come as a surprise to any of you that my wish list is full of accessories and items to level up every day classics.
Of course, keep in mind this list is in fact a wish list – so it’s fun to dream about a lot of these items and it doesn’t necessarily mean they’ll be added into my rotation this year.
But I do use this post as a guide to my purchases – referring back to it throughout the year whenever I am tempted to take advantages of sales I don’t need to or go on a fast fashion spree. (Although I always remain a fan of mixing high/low when it comes to my wardrobe!) But this list really helps keep me oriented towards the pieces I truly want.
So without further ado, here is my 2025 Wish List as it stands now. And don’t miss the widget at the bottom with even more items I saw that I think are worth adding to your own wish list that didn’t fit into the collage!
My Annual Wish List
1. La Ligne Ben V-Neck Sweater
I got so, so much wear out of my La Ligne Ben Sweater that I want to add the v-neck style to my rotation this year. I’m not usually a v-neck fan but this one is quite high which I think would work for me!
2. Longines DolceVita Watch
A vintage Cartier watch is on my long time wish list (maybe for this year’s 40th birthday?!) but in the meantime this Longines one is on my list.
3. Agmes Silver Hoops
I got this cool cuff by this brand last year and then saw they have a similar design in pretty hoops. I want to start mixing more metals this year in my jewelry and so would buy these in silver.
4. U Beauty The Super Tinted Hydrator
I’ve heard great things about this brand and I keep meaning to try the Super Tinted Hydrator. I saw it is newly restocked so that’s probably a sign to finally do so!
Code MEGHANDONO for 20% off your order on their site.
5. Veronica Beard Houndstooth Blazer
You know me and my love of a good plaid blazer. And nobody does them better than Veronica Beard in my opinion. Their jackets are such standouts and such special pieces.
6. Jenni Kayne Cable Knit Sweater
I absolutely love a cozy cable knit sweater for Fall and Winter outings and this new style Jenni Kayne just dropped is so good looking. Use code MEGHANDONO10 for 10% off your purchase.
(Also loving this one from La Ligne.)
7. Ring Concierge Petite Emerald Illusion Studs
Given how much I wore and adored my Ring Concierge Illusion Studs last year, I immediately added the vintage-inspired emerald cut ones to my wish list.
8. Gucci Sunglasses
A simple yet sleek pair of black sunglasses.
9. Saint Laurent Small Gaia Shoulder Bag in Velvet
I saw this bag in Paris in December and swooned. But I ended up buying this one instead as it felt more season-less. That being said, I haven’t stopped thinking about this velvet beauty!
10. Matteau Swimsuit
I can’t wrap my head around the price point on this swimsuit but I just love the corset-esque vibes on it and the shoulder strap design.
This ERES one is also on my wish list and I aim to try it on in Paris some time where it would be a lot less expensive.
11. Dorsey James Bezel Graduated Riviere Necklace
Given how happy I’ve been with my past Dorsey purchases, this beautiful new style that was recently restocked has been added to my wish list for the year.
12. Adidas Run 70s 2.0 Sneaker
Loving the colorway of these sneakers, naturally.
13. The Row Sandals
I have a sexy pair of strappy sandals on my wish list this year. Considering this pair by The Row, this pair by Christian Louboutin or these Prada ones are fun, too.
14. Toteme Pavé Earrings
I’ve seen these earrings in person at the Toteme store in NYC and they are beautiful. I love how simple yet striking they look on the model on site!
15. Reformation Suede Pouch Bag
The dual strap on this bag is what made it stand out to me!
16. Westman Atelier Concealer
I failed to buy this last year and many of you told me it is great so I will definitely test it out at some point this year!
17. Veronica Beard Sneakers
Another pair of chic sneakers that would be great for travel outfits in particular I tihnk.
18. Rhode Barrier Butter
I love, love, love the Rhode Lip Peptide and I’ve heard such good things about this 2024 launch. Given my skin is often in need of extra moisture, I can’t wait to test this.
19. Marble Tray
I’ve started an unofficial tray collection over the years and I am loving the beautiful, moody tones in this scalloped marble one.
20. Savette Pouchette
This brand’s beautiful and sleek designs have been on my radar for a while. The little top handle pouchette is so cute in particular I think.
21. Reformation Silk Pants
I own these in black and they are great. Wonderful for travel because they take up next to no room and the sleek cream color would pair well with my collection of ivory sweaters.

I have two Longines watches, including the DolceVita. They are wonderful timeless watches that hold up well. My first Longines watch I received in 2007 as a graduation gift and the second (the DolceVita) I bought for myself appropriately ten years ago. You will not be disappointed if you decide to make the investment.
Oh yay! I am thrilled to hear this and how lovely that yours have sentimental value! Love that.
Hope you are having a great start to the new year! What a great list! I love this wish list idea & plan work on one of my own!
In case you need other swim inspiration…I wanted to suggest the Eres ‘Le Essentiels Aquarelle’ swimsuit -the price can be eye watering but there are occasional sales at various retailers. Eres is owned by Chanel and the swimwear is made of proprietary fabric that incorporates polyamide and spandex that is just amazing! I have this exact suit in black (it also has a square neckline) & it still looks brand new even though I’ve had it for years!
I’ve always admired these suits but never gotten one so I am thrilled to hear you love this French brand! Thank you for the rec! May just need to pop in to try it on when in France this month!
If you like trays, you might like those by The Lacquer Company. The Belle Rives tray is especially nice & comes in multiple colors/sizes. You can see them in person at KRB NYC (in the UES).
Oh thank you!! I will check them out!
That Ana dress in the widget!!!
Love the post, it’s always interesting to see which pieces are on your radar and why.
Would be curious about your thoughts on the Rhode lip product vs. Summer Fridays, thank you!
So glad you enjoyed it! I love both actually! They are very similar! so depends if you want tinted or not. Summer Fridays I prefer for a tint, Rhode for untinted.
