Bloomingdale's Theory Dresses and Linen Set

When it comes to fashion investments, the more classic the better. Personal style evolves, trends come and go, but a solid black tee is forever, no? I remind myself of this exact sentiment every time I do a closet clean-out. Typically, the pieces I pass along to a new home are cheaply made, hyper-trendy items that I lose interest in after one season. It's certainly not the most sustainable way of shopping, and in an effort to extinguish this cycle, I'm heading straight to Bloomingdale's to shop its excellent selection of apparel from Theory. The brand's Good collection prioritizes sustainability in every step of the supply chain. The Good Linen fabric is created with flax fibers from 5 different farms in France, woven in Italy, and then promptly added to my closet. I couldn't recommend these investment pieces more. The high-quality materials, classic silhouettes, and perfect fit are exactly why these pieces will live in my wardrobe (and yours) for years to come. Keep scrolling to shop my favorites.
