One of the privileges of finding the perfect jeans or white button up or sunglasses is that you no longer need to shop around.\n<\/p>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block_8-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-gallery--two-image-composite mntl-sc-block-gallery--two-image-composite mntl-image-composite mntl-block mntl-image-composite--two-image-composite\">\n<div id=\"mntl-image-composite__images_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-image-composite__images mntl-block\">\n<div id=\"mntl-image-composite__image_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-image-composite__image mntl-block mntl-sc-block-image\">\n<div class=\"img-placeholder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"576\" height=\"768\" alt=\"John F Kennedy Jr and Carolyn BessetteKennedy walking outdoors holding hands\" class=\"lazyload mntl-image universal-image__image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/_OXW6tYKmJ6STOvNywyhqlsTdRo=\/576x768\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():focal(511x0:513x2):format(webp)\/GettyImages-576846936-50674001a7634d9fbd978b2fe3b8c270.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/_OXW6tYKmJ6STOvNywyhqlsTdRo=\/576x768\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():focal(511x0:513x2):format(webp)\/GettyImages-576846936-50674001a7634d9fbd978b2fe3b8c270.jpg\" width=\"576\" height=\"768\" class=\"img--noscript mntl-image universal-image__image\" alt=\"John F Kennedy Jr and Carolyn BessetteKennedy walking outdoors holding hands\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"mntl-image-composite__image_2-0\" class=\"comp mntl-image-composite__image mntl-block mntl-sc-block-image\">\n<div class=\"img-placeholder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"576\" height=\"768\" alt=\"Carolyn BessetteKennedy holding a clutch\" class=\"lazyload mntl-image universal-image__image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/TsDZA-Eu7Vnp590TmemZL5D5Bn8=\/576x768\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():focal(948x0:950x2):format(webp)\/GettyImages-21636521-01d3f4af9a5b4963bc945e0f2fc7fe72.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/TsDZA-Eu7Vnp590TmemZL5D5Bn8=\/576x768\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():focal(948x0:950x2):format(webp)\/GettyImages-21636521-01d3f4af9a5b4963bc945e0f2fc7fe72.jpg\" width=\"576\" height=\"768\" class=\"img--noscript mntl-image universal-image__image\" alt=\"Carolyn BessetteKennedy holding a clutch\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"mntl-image-composite__captions_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-image-composite__captions mntl-block\"><figcaption id=\"mntl-image-composite__caption_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-image-composite__caption mntl-figure-caption text-utility-100 figure-article-caption\" data-prefix=\"L:\"><span class=\"figure-article-caption-owner\">PHOTO: <\/p>\n<p>Getty Images<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/figcaption><figcaption id=\"mntl-image-composite__caption_2-0\" class=\"comp mntl-image-composite__caption mntl-figure-caption text-utility-100 figure-article-caption\" data-prefix=\"R:\"><span class=\"figure-article-caption-owner\">PHOTO: <\/p>\n<p>Getty Images<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_10-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Keep reading to discover 11 (like I said, 10 is tricky!)
