I can only consider myself a minimalist half of the time. I love pieces that stand out from the crowd, but investing in good basics and essentials is necessary for a well-rounded wardrobe. These simple pieces, like tank tops, plain tees, and flats, are the foundation for building a strong sense of style. If you are a minimalist, you know that to be true. While investing in long-lasting pieces is important, we can’t always shop The Row for these forever fashion items, but we can still splurge responsibly.

For you readers who have been saving for a spring and summer closet refresh, I’ve found items that fall in every price range, whether you’re shopping for under-$100 items via Zara, Nordstrom, or COS; looking in the $300-to-$500 range at Shopbop and Net-a-Porter; or considering over-$1000 items from, yes, The Row. Whatever your budget, these fashion items are all high-quality and expensive-looking.
