I'm always on the hunt for cool items that have the power to become new wardrobe staples. Oh, and for reference, I consider something to be a staple if it's highly versatile and could be paired with a variety of other items already in my closet. Three stores where I've recently found standout finds happen to be J.Crew, Shopbop, and H&M.
On that note, I just took a scroll through this trio of stores and found a smattering of A+ pieces that I think could be worthy contenders for your everyday wardrobe. As a preview, I'm referring to items like of-the-moment baggy jeans. I also made sure to include top-notch shirting and other basics that could be dressed up or down. If you're in the market for new shoes, there's a range of chic silhouettes, from ballet flats to slide-on sandals.
Keep scrolling to check out staple-worthy picks from J.Crew, Shopbop, and H&M.
