The 4 Staples You Need Right Now

When it comes to building a wardrobe that feels polished without trying too hard, we always come back to great staples. The key is choosing pieces that feel classic, but still have something a little unexpected.

We started with the HELM custom tux shirt. Shirts are always at the top of our staple list, and this one is our favorite not-your-basic take on a classic. The relaxed shape makes it easy to wear, while the tux-inspired details give it a more elevated feel. Next, wide-leg jeans add just enough of a statement, especially paired with a slimmer top. We love this not-quite-white wash because it feels fresh now but works year-round.

For shoes, we’re glad to see the structured loafer sticking around. This blue suede pair is the perfect transitional shoe, and we’d style the color just like a neutral. To finish, a suede bag adds texture while still feeling timeless. This one is a classic everyday bag worth the splurge, with multiple colors and sizes to choose from.

Together, these are the kinds of staples that make everyday dressing easy: versatile, elevated, and easy to wear.
