So I might have overinvested in basics—sue me. I got so eager about filling my closet with wardrobe basics like plain tees and tanks that I completely ignored those more exciting pieces that actually make an outfit, and now I'm finding myself bored of my closet. Don't get me wrong. I don't regret buying into so many basics, since I know they'll always be useful, but one thing is clear: I'm in desperate need of a closet revival.

Luckily for me (and for you, too, if you find yourself in a similar situation), I have just the thing that will bring my closet back to life and make getting dressed exciting again. Our very own Who What Wear collection is stocking plenty of the anti-basics I'm currently craving, like printed sundresses, puff-sleeve tops, and plenty of bright colors to go around. I can already tell these under-$40 pieces will jolt me out of my outfit boredom, so keep scrolling to shop them all.
