Holme isn’t afraid to pick favorites, and this taffeta midi skirt set — available in six colors and patterns, including trendy polka dot — earned her top spot for its styling versatility. “Not only does it look incredible on, but personally, I think if anything looks too perfect or put together, I love to smudge it with a bit of denim,” she tells PEOPLE.

“(I like) the fact that I can put a denim shirt with this skirt, or I can throw baggy jeans on with the top, and then wear the set (together) to a special occasion. It just does so many things for me.”
