Topshop
Whether it’s an of-the-moment tank or a pretty floral dress we’re looking for, Topshop will undoubtedly have a range of solid options.
Mango
Looking for a modern-feeling tank? Mango will have it. A forward pair of shorts? Yep, that’s there too. This is definitely a go-to store for many of our editors.
H&M
We’d basically consider H&M to be a one-stop shop for many closet staples, from trending silhouettes to classic basics.
Charles & Keith
In the accessory realm, Charles & Keith is a worthy stop for modern shoe and handbag picks that often ring in under $65.
& Other Stories
While there’s a smattering of chic basics at & Other Stories, it’s the selection of special-feeling dresses and tops that are front-runners thanks to the attention to detail.
Pixie Market
Known for its fashion-forward selection of seasonal must-haves, Pixie Market stocks all of those compliment-worthy separates. But note that the price point is slightly higher than some of the others on this list.
