Mary-Kate and Ashley Think These Are the 13 Best Basics Under $75

It's been a long seven months. We first reported back in April that Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen were bringing their Elizabeth and James brand exclusively to Kohl's, and now the day has finally come. This new collection has that coveted Olsen stamp of approval at incredible prices—we're talking a sharp coat for $74 and sleek pants for $37. Both women have been hands-on with the designs of the new collection, so you can bet they're especially chic and well-thought-out. And since they are pros at styling understated basics in their everyday life, we're not surprised this collection is full of simple, key pieces. Plus, I did some digging to find the sisters wearing similar items to their new designs in case you want to see how they have worn them in the past. 

"Our vision for Elizabeth and James is to deliver a lifestyle brand that offers women access to premium fashion at an affordable price without sacrificing quality and fit,” Mary-Kate Olsen said in a statement. "Kohl’s is the right partner to take our brand into a new era while staying true to the high-quality, fashion-forward designs that our loyal brand enthusiasts expect from us. Leveraging Kohl’s extensive store network and digital platform will also allow us to reach a much larger audience than we have in the past and for this we are particularly excited.”
