My wishlist this season is all about timeless staples—pieces that feel effortlessly chic, go with everything, and won't be out of style by next year. I'm drawn to items that look polished but don't require too much thought.
Everything on it falls into one of two categories: a true basic or an elevated twist. For the latter, it's all about the subtle yet artful details—an interesting texture, a unique cut, or an unexpected element that makes it feel special.
With both, the goal is the same: to have essentials I'll reach for again and again. And they're all under $150.
I truly don't know how I don't own a white cotton skirt yet.
This reminds me of Paloma Wool's Mopit top.
Flore Flore has the best basics.
These Levi's 501 90s have been my cart for too long.
This silk halter with an open back is perfect.
I'm obsessed with black kitten heel sandals.
A friend was wearing this dress from Rouje recently and it looked so good.
I've been wanting a bag from Stand Oil—a South Korean brand I recently found out about.
I've been skeptical of capris making a comeback for too long.
This looks so much more expensive than it is.
This knit is so timeless.
I keep getting Instagram ads for this chick high-neck cardigan.
I'm definitely going to get this set from Cou Cou Intimates.
This is the matching bottom.
Adorable.
Whenever I'm unsure of what to wear, I end up going for a mock neck.
This is never going out of style.
Boat necks look sophisticated as well.
Grey pencil skirts are such an easy way to look put together.
Pia Mance's Heaven Mayhem has tons of simple accessories.
I have a blue button down that I'm always wearing as a layer, so I'd love one in white.
Gap has been one of the best places to shop lately.
I wear these so much and need to replace my old ones.
I can never have enough tank top variations.
Such a fan of Geel.
While I'm usually quite devoted to mini skirts, I've recently starting gravitating towards longer skirts.
I'd wear this all the time.
White cotton shorts with a tank top and low block heels was one of my most worn outfits last spring.
I like the buttons on this.
