Recently, I’ve been focused on curating the staples in my closet. In typical spring cleaning mode, I donated the pieces that I haven’t been wearing recently, but there are some wardrobe gaps I’ve been needing to fill since. While I love test-driving some of the breaking trends, my personal approach to shopping is to buy a foundation of timeless pieces I’ll have in my closet for years to come, so I’ve been zeroed in on finding the items that are currently missing. 

There are some elevated staples that I’ve noticed every fashion person has in there closet right now, so I’ve been working on adding them to my closet. The best part? You can find them for under $200, so you don’t need to make a big investment. Bubbling pieces including boxy jackets and maxi skirts are as wearable as they are cool, and they have carved themselves out as key staples to own right now. Others, including T-shirts and jeans come down to the colorways and silhouettes that make them feel directional and cool. Ahead, the fashion items under $200 on my current shopping list.
