As I discussed here, I often gravitate toward simple items. Accessories are a different story, but the bulk of my clothing skews simpler. Now, I don't mean boring by any means. Rather, I prefer elevated basics that are relevant and modern but highly versatile. I'm referring to pieces like what our fashion editor Eliza is wearing above.
Oh, and many of the items in question just so happen to be available at editor-favorite retailer Shopbop. Furthermore, Shopbop is actually having a big sale right now.
Now through September 22, you can take 15% off orders of $200+, 20% off orders of $500+, and 25% off orders of $800+ with the promo code Style. To give you further shopping inspiration, I rounded up an edit of simple yet chic clothing items that I love. Also, note that the original pricing is reflected below—the discount will vary based on the cart information during checkout.
