There's something about the start of a new season that always gets me in the mood to shop. Maybe I'm programmed that way, or maybe I'm just looking for an excuse to blow my paycheck. Either way, the second spring rolls around, I start thinking about swimsuits [1], new home decor [2], and more colourful clothes. If you're also ready to grab your credit card and treat yourself to a few new things, you're in the right place.
In an effort to give you a little shopping inspiration, I enlisted the help of my fellow editors to share exactly what we're all adding to our wish lists this spring. These items are a mix of ones we're day-dreaming about, have already bought and recently tried, or thing that are just waiting in our virtual shopping carts to be purchased. From flattering dresses to cute sneakers and even a chic boucle [3] loveseat, be prepared to fall in love with at least one thing. Trust me, these will brighten up your day.

Ilia Beauty Super Serum Skin Tint SPF 40 Foundation
"If I've learned anything about myself over the last year, it's that I prefer foundations that aren't really foundations. In other words, I've fallen in love with the concept of the Ilia Beauty Super Serum Skin Tint SPF 40 Foundation [40] ($40) — and not just because the name reminds me of Steve Rogers (if you know, you know). It's an added bonus that this stuff comes with built-in SPF." — SS

This one manages to be both timeless and current; the chocolate brown leather is gorgeous, and I love that it can be worn both as a shoulder bag and a crossbody." — IY
Bobbi Brown Extra Lip Tint
"I hate to admit it, but I'm a sucker for celebrity endorsements and the second I saw Elizabeth Olsen use this Bobbi Brown Extra Lip Tint [56] ($29), I knew I needed it.
