Line: Mykke Hofmann

We each have a unique relationship with our closet—different tastes and preferences with trends and styles—but a commonality that most women desire is quality and reasonable prices. We all know the feeling of only wanting to reach for the “nicest” item in your wardrobe, because quality feels good to wear. In a world that screams “more, more, more!” in regards to fashion, Darling stands on the principle of collecting less, but more high-quality, staple items that might take a minute to save up for, but will last a lifetime.

Many women’s platforms display items that are WAY out of price range for the everyday woman. But we believe in knowing when to splurge and when not to, and that craftsmanship, fabrics, and where things are made (and by whom) matters.

This product roundup reflects our choices of beautiful products (all under $350!) that will help you build a quality, long-lasting wardrobe.
