If you have ever wondered what shopping editors add to their wish lists, now is the time to see for yourself. I curated a roundup of the coolest goodies out there.

Although these Halogen Tori Mules ($90) have a brocade pattern, they're versatile. I'll wear them with LBDs and trousers.

We're seeing leopard prints everywhere for New York Fashion Week, so this DVF Animal Print Dress ($598) is a great investment. It can transition from the office to a party with just a few accessory swaps. Plus, the metallic sheen has my heart.
