I finally faced it, a real-life spring closet clean out. And let me tell you, it was a process (albeit a very rewarding one). Another huge plus was making room for fresh basic pieces that I feel excited about.
Although I am excited to start shopping for some shiny, new pieces, I don’t want to spend too much. That being said, I started the hunt for the perfect six basic pieces for all under–$100 and was very impressed with my findings. Enough so to share them with you. In the list below, I’ve rounded up the top button downs, jeans, shoulder bags, trousers, sneakers, and T-shirts at affordable prices.
The button down is my hero piece. Whether in light blue, white, blue stripe, or almost any hue, the button down is so versatile for layering year round.
Jeans are an obvious must-have piece. Refreshing your denim drawer is an amazing investment and has the power to update so many items in your closet.
A mid-size shoulder bag is the best investment. Black and white versions guarantee this will become your everyday bag.
Wide-leg trousers are the chicest work and play pant. Elevate them for evening with an embellished top and a pair of pointy pumps.
Simple, classic sneakers are versatile and comfortable. Choose a timeless pair with neutral tones so they match everything.
A high-quality T-shirt is one of my favorite closet additions. They can get worn so easily so a fresh, crisp T-shirt is always a worthy buy.
