Not to brag, but I think of myself as someone who knows how to spot a good fashion item. When I see something that makes my heart flutter (and wallet suffer), I have to share it with the world—most often with pictures, links, and tons of exclamation marks on my Instagram story. As someone who'sknown to influence all of my friends, family, and followers to buy something incredibly on-trend, I'm strongly anti-gatekeeping. My latest venture? Posting my outfits from my favorite retailers.

As a Gen Z editor, I'm constantly on the hunt for the latest and greatest to share with my friends. From browsing Nordstrom for hours on end to finding the best runway-inspired ballet shoes for more than $100 off, I've rounded up the bestZoomer-approved stores that everyone 25 and under is shopping now.

Although I've loved Tory Burch for years, it's hard ignore the Burchaissance that's happened over the last few months. Fashion people everywhere are drooling over the classic New York–based label, and after following the brand's runway shows, I've been floored season after season. After influencing nearly 10 of my friends and colleagues to buy the brand's ultra-luxe studded ballet flats, I've been eyeing everything else on the website to call my own.
