I'm an Editor With Trust Issues, so I Only Buy My Wardrobe Staples at Shopbop
Shopbop is my one-stop shop for trend-adjacent but still very classic pieces that will quickly become staples in my wardrobe. There is a fine line between creating a solid capsule wardrobe and also feeling like you still get to update your rotation with fresh items, and as a fashion editor, I'm keeping an eye out for purchases that balance quality, longevity, and relevancy.
With the fast-paced nature of trends, the sweet spot is those quintessential yet modern buys. This includes easy-to-wear dresses, stylish denim, updated basics, and (my favorite) really good accessories. For our mutual benefit, I've taken a fine-tooth comb to Shopbop's current offering and handpicked the most trustworthy pieces the retailer has to offer right now.

You can never have too many striped button-downs.
