    37 Versatile Style Staples You Won't Regret Buying

    Items you'll wear again and again. And again.

    1. An off-shoulder maxi dress designed with the phrase wardrobe staple, the kind of number you can wear to weddings and birthday dinners *or* for a stroll along a beach boardwalk.

    2. A T-shirt dress with a tie-waist and a 1,000% guarantee of turning you into a fashion blogger stat, no significant Instagram following required. There's just something about a tie waist — amirite, folks?

    3. Mid-rise shorts made from a lightweight, ultra stretchy denim that won't feel restrictive throughout long days (cc: humid days spent traipsing around theme parks in Orlando, Florida).

    4. A bodycon pencil dress that looks so. damn. chic. And while the importance of owning the perfect LBD is no secret, it's likely you've had the same one for...decades (#guilty). I believe it's time we both level up.

    5. A crewneck plain white tee about to bust into its own rendition of "Hey There Delilah." Just kidding. On a serious note, this hunk of lightweight Madewell cotton is super comfortable *and* goes with any bottom.

    6. A one-shoulder jumpsuit ideal for relaxing vacations in *begins to sweat* especially hot climates — the fabric is thick but surprisingly breathable.

    7. A pair of classic high-rise skinny jeans if you'd like statement denim that's, well, not overwhelmingly statement-y. These bottoms can be worn on constant rotation — all while the subtle pocket detailing gives them an extra bit of zhush.

    8. A sleeveless swing mini for impromptu wine nights with le pals, grocery store runs, fancier dinners (simply add in some heels), et cetera. Versatility is this dress' strongest suit.

    9. An essential cropped tank that has most likely been blessed by a fairy godmother. Why? This takes your basic cami and goes *poof.* An instantly chic upgrade is yours for the taking due to this high-neck silhouette.

    10. A stretchy crewneck mini for a summer-approved extension of your favorite tee (although you can wear it any season with the right layers, tbh). Raise your hand if you're ready to ditch the WFH joggers and give your shins a chance to breathe.

    11. A skinny jean that's voted most likely to star in Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. These stretchy hunks of denim are praised by 5,000+ reviewers for comfort, versatility, and a glove-like fit — plus, these are *truly* high-waisted. None of that fake "high rise" nonsense where you feel like your underwear is constantly on the brink of being exposed.

    12. An off-shoulder Bardot mini because no, you do not want to go out tonight, but yes, you did make these plans last week and you simply can't cancel again. Presenting at least one less headache: this dress. It goes with every shoe and accessory, plus the material is comfortable and doesn't feel restrictive (despite the fact that it's a bodycon).

    13. A simple satiny button-up with the ability to make light-wash jeans look chic. The secret sauce is in the fabric, which delivers a luxe ensemble that only looks expensive.

    15. A V-neck jumpsuit that may ruin the best part of the wedding you're at: cocktail hour. Eating calamari will be consistently interrupted by the dozens of compliments you'll have to accept.

    16. A midi wrap skirt that one must simply pair with a white tank and sandals (read: leather jacket optional but highly recommended) to convince your friends that you did not sleep in this morning.

    17. A bodycon mini dress with a strappy back and two massive perks: Not only does it look like a guaranteed 400,000 followers on Instagram (you blogger you), but the adjustable ties allow you to customize your perfect fit. No trip to the seamstress required.

    18. A two-piece yoga set that you'll wear with alarming frequency. Think: every. Single. Day. This legging and sports bra combo provides light compression and looks casual chic à la the matchy-match design.

    19. A high-waisted midi skirt ideal for any season — pair it with booties and a leather jacket in fall and with sandals and a tank for summer. It's also available in multiple patterns so with that, I bid you a happy shopping trip.
