ELEVATED ESSENTIALS
The best (and most wearable!) wardrobes begin with a strong foundation that’s made up of versatile items that you can turn to season after season and mix and match to your heart’s content. A few that make my short list: the best black cashmere sweater, a worn-in pair of straight-leg jeans, a fits-like-a-glove white t-shirt, and a tailored blazer, to name just a few. Basic but never boring, these items take the guesswork out of getting dressed, providing maximum style with minimal effort.
Not sure where to start? Head over to Net-a-Porter, where you’ll find not only a roster of brands (think: The Row, Gabriela Hearst, and Toteme to name just a few) that are known for designs which have everlasting wardrobe potential, but there’s also an entire edit dedicated to elevated essentials. Covering all categories (outerwear, shoes, dresses, bags, you name it), it’s a one-stop shop with everything you need to help craft your very own capsule collection.
Below, a peek at a few of my favorite basic-but-never-boring essentials, all found on Net-A-Porter.
