Now that basically everything is available on the internet, it's become much easier to impulse shop. You can literally buy anything on a whim in the middle of the night after a couple of glasses of wine and a few days later, that thing is at your doorstep. I think we've all had instances when we've asked ourselves why we bought that black tie-worthy dress (or whatnot) we didn't need, only to promptly return it. But sometimes, that random impulse purchase pays off.
As fashion editors, you'd be safe to assume that our purchases are pretty well-thought-out and researched, but that's not always the case. I asked our editorial team about their most successful impulse buys, and almost all of them sent me the link to items that I've seen them wear, so you can bet they mean it when they say they don't regret these purchases. Scroll to shop those on-a-whim items they don't regret, as well as a few more regret-free buys.
"I'm always in need of cute tops that aren't T-shirts and I knew this neutral colorblock cardigan would go with so many things in my wardrobe and could easily be dressed up or down. Sure enough, it's become one of my wardrobe staples."Shopbop recently had a big spring sale and I couldn't resist buying this gorgeous beaded Staud bag. It's perfect for the warm weather season and easy to wear from day to night with everything from denim shorts to dreamy white dresses. It's fun, chic, and puts a smile on my face every time I look at it—so no regrets here!""I was TikTok influenced to buy these socks, and I'm so happy I did. They're affordable, and it's so nice to open up my drawer and have a ton of the same "aesthetic" socks. My existing mish-mosh of random styles has officially been moved to the back of the drawer. On TikTok, they say they're the perfect dupe for an Aritzia pair, but I just like that they're the perfect height and fulfill that Sporty and Rich/Matilda Djerf look.""I love perusing Italist for cool designer finds at solid prices. On one of my scroll-throughs, I uncovered a Balenciaga logo belt that I certainly didn't, but it's now one of my most-worn pieces. Great cost per wear!""I bought this bag in black on a whim last summer and I'm so glad I did. It's the perfect size and so easy to wear with everything both in the day and at night.""The second these shoes were released, I knew they were special. Usually, with big purchases, I like to take time to think things over, but my gut was telling me these would sell out ASAP, and turns out I was right. I ended up using ThreadsGen to get these for me in my size and desired color and it was so worth it. These shoes are fun yet surprisingly practical. I wear them to run errands or to really accentuate a look. And yes, I always get tons of compliments on them when I wear them.""Nothing makes me feel better than a luxe pajama set so my most recent purchase had to be this one. I'll be feeling like a queen in my castle every time I wear it and am now thinking of buying a cute pair of slippers to wear it with.""I made a very unplanned trip to Maryam Nassir Zadeh's sample sale a few weeks ago because I've been in love with her wedge sandals for years now but never quite mustered up the courage to splurge on such a trendy shoe style. After waiting in a very long line, however, I knew I had to make the journey worthwhile and ended up buying an avocado-green pair. Though the color is pretty bright for my usual taste, I've already found myself grabbing for them constantly, not to mention researching ways to get myself another color or two. Unfortunately, my exact style is pretty much completely sold out everywhere (for good reason), but these new Bottega Veneta wedges are a similar color and definitely just as chic.""While I'm typically not a big impulse shopper, I immediately ordered a pair of Saint Laurent heels finished with a silver toe-cap detail and they have quickly become my go-to shoes for an evening out.""When I bought this bag at a sample sale several months ago, there was no telling if I would love it, hate it, wear it all the time, or never wear it. Plus, the added stress of the purchase being final sale. I bit the bullet and went for it and have had zero regrets since I now wear it all the time. I love the cool checkerboard texture and the fact that it converts from a shoulder bag to crossbody bag for maximum versatility. "If you're looking to splurge on a pair of loafers, these get my vote.If you hate denim shorts, consider these.Our bestselling dress just restocked in this pretty print.You'll reach for this perfect summer top constantly.A pretty Reformation dress is always a good idea.For rainy days (or just every day).The It bag everyone wants to get their hands on this season (and beyond, I'm sure).I think we can all agree that this is the perfect red dress.I can personally vouch for how great these jeans are.
