Elevated Staples to Buy for Spring
"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links."
Overdone patterns and gussied-up drama be gone—sleek silhouettes with exquisite detailing are the best investments with which to build (and refresh) your wardrobe. So as we look ahead to warmer days and get that shopping itch, we like to consider the “fewer, better” approach to reinvigorating our outfits.
Accordingly, we turned to the Luxury Stores at Amazon and rounded up 10 of our favorite buys this season that can be worn on repeat, each uniquely stylish—and surprisingly versatile. Read on for our picks and some relevant styling tips.
Mima Dress
A fresh take on the cutout, this maxi dress is made of lightweight cashmere—and therefore nearly seasonless. Wear it with flat sandals on warmer days, or with platform sneakers for a casual-cool look.
Protect Your V-Neck Top
Playing with shape is the easiest way to add interest to any look. This cotton V-neck has sculptural sleeves and a flattering length; it plays nicely with jeans and skirts alike.
Denim Midi Skirt
Dressed-up denim has a timeless appeal. This A-line skirt is comfortable and easy to wear, no matter your mood.
U-Neck T-Shirt Dress
The T-shirt dress that gives T-shirts a good name, this Marina Mascone has a bright feel, thanks to its thin lines of color. Toss your hair in a high pony and you’re ready to go in a full look, without all that much effort.
Embellished Crepe Shirt
Give the jeans-and-a-button-down pairing new life with monochrome embellishments that make a big statement. Wear yours with minimal jewelry for an easy-breezy vibe.
Surf Cargo Pant
A unique spin on the recent wide-leg trend, these fun cargo pants are chic and playful all at once. Sport them under a white bodysuit T-shirt or an oversize sweater with a chunky heel.
Embroidered Classic Stripe Shirt
Somewhere between borrowed-from-the-boys and feminine-cutesy, this Oxford shirt is ideal for those days when you want to wear sweats but have to look pulled together.
New Pois Solid High-Leg Bandeau swimsuit
As summer approaches, a sleek, anything-but-basic swimsuit is going to be key. The high leg is eternally flattering, and the bandeau top will help banish tan lines.
Beril Trouser
Dramatic and high-tone in all the right ways, these navy blue trousers feel very power-woman-does-the-city. Pull in the metallic accents with bold gold jewelry.
Lasercut Cotton Poplin Shorts
Shorts, done correctly, can feel as upscale as a dress or skirt. This airy poplin pair wears well over bathing suits and under blouses, and can even stretch into fall with a chunky knit over top.
