Gen Chic

Trends in fashion may come and go, but classic staples are eternal. There lies a trick to keeping classics from becoming monotonous: infuse playful twists into your staple pieces. Perhaps, just perhaps, sourcing staple pieces with a touch of uniqueness proves to be a bit of a challenge. The term "staple" is frequently linked with simple, expected, and uninteresting styles, yet that isn't universally accurate. The classic staple items on our radar possess a discreet allure that gracefully captures attention.
