The Only 11 Things In Our Closet We Bought In Multiple Colors, They're Just That Good
by The Candidly Team
We’ve reached a point where we’re done opening our closet and hating all our clothes.
Something about it feels like we’re still 19, buying hodgepodge pieces that, when assembled, make us look like a mannequin in an Urban Outfitters.
These days, our goal is simple: to dress classic and chic with the littlest possible effort. And we’ve realized the only way to do that is to fill our closet with staple pieces that are individually best in class.
The rule isn’t new, but the idea is basically this: Find something that fits to perfection and buy it in a few colors - not in a robotic Mark Zuckerberg way but in a thoughtful Carolyn Bessette Kennedy way.
Well, we have found 11 such items.
Each one makes us dress better on a daily basis. They’re perfect on their own but they’re also the perfect thing to pair with all our more vibrant, statementy pieces, so we can easily achieve balance without having to ask “what the hell do I wear with this to make it an outfit?”
We’ll let you in on the fact that practically every single one of us at The Candidly (all of different heights and tastes and body types) went out and bought these pieces because they are that good. And we even included our own non-model photos for your reference.

Price-wise, designer brands like to charge like 3 times as much for skirts like these. And this one is just as good. Better even.
