The 14 Style Basics You Shouldn’t Spend A Lot Of Money On
by The Candidly Team
When it comes to wardrobe staples, we are willing to admit some things are worth investing in. Particularly these nine things. And, ok fine, maybe also this one super important thing.
We often try very hard to abide by the chic French-lady philosophy of spend once, save later. We like it when we save for something we absolutely love, so we don’t wind up buying some sad, cheap version of that thing over and over and over again.
But some things don’t have to cost a fortune. Any masterful closet (or outfit for that matter) mixes highs with lows. It’s the reason why we’ve written about the most essential things you need at pretty much every price point.
So, what are the things that don’t skimp on quality and can easily dress up? The pieces that look fancy-French-lady fantastic despite being a total steal? These, my friend, are those things.
At The Candidly, we try a lot of stuff so you don’t have to. We only recommend things we truly love, and that we think you’ll love, too. All products are chosen independently by our creative team, and all details reflect the price and availability of products at the time of publication. If you buy something we link to, The Candidly may earn a commission.
