I’m a Busy Mom, and My Most-Complimented Spring Wardrobe Staples Start at $9
I don’t want to brag, but a lot of my wardrobe pieces have gotten me compliments. Of course, I have a slight advantage since my job as a fashion editor allows me to scour the internet for the best closet staples.
I like to think that I’ve built a curated collection of clothes that are classic in nature, but also have a fun twist. I take the same approach with my accessories, too, as I’m a sucker for statement shoes and handbags with interesting details.
And since I’m no gatekeeper, I’m sharing nine of my most-worn, most complimented pieces, including a textured striped maxi dress, an asymmetrical linen jumpsuit, and bold Mary Jane flats. Best of all? You can find all of my go-tos at Amazon, with some items marked down during its Big Spring Sale event, starting at just $9.
9 Most Complimented Fashion
Anrabess Square Neck Maxi Dress
Amazon
If you don’t mind strangers stopping to ask you, “Hey, where did you get that?” then this little black dress is just what you need. The elevated maxi features a chic square neckline, thick spaghetti straps for extra bust support, a tiered bottom, and—my favorite detail—hidden pockets (score!).
Vivaia Margo Mary Jane Flat
Amazon
I’m not exaggerating when I say that I wear Vivaia’s Margo Mary Jane flats almost everyday. From picking up my son at preschool to grabbing dinner with friends, these slip-ons are my go-tos. They’re not only super comfortable thanks to its stretchy upper and cushioned insole, but the red-hot hue is surprisingly versatile.
Prettygarden Two-Piece Vest and Shorts Set
Amazon
I’m all about unfussy outfits, like this Prettygarden set. It’s probably my most-worn item because it makes me look put-together in seconds. Not to mention, each piece looks great on its own, so I can easily mix-and-match them with other closet staples. And in the event it’s in my laundry basket, I’ll throw on my second fave one-and-done look: this chic jumpsuit.
JW Pei Mini Flap Crossbody Bag
Amazon
I love adding interesting elements to my wardrobe (as seen with my shoe choices), and this JW Pei purse certainly fits the bill. In fact, the emerald green bag has started many conversations with strangers over the years for its vibrant hue, croc-embossed details, and gold hardware. It brings a fun twist to my most basic outfits and holds all my essentials: phone, wallet, lipstick, and keys.
