I Scrolled ThroughReplica Store for 2 Hours—These Elevated Basics Are So Chic
Basics are the unsung heroes of our wardrobes, often doing the heavy lifting when it comes to constructing an outfit of note. I'm one to cut corners where I can, but I also recognize that a well-made T-shirt has the ability to make an ensemble. Case in point: A sequin midi skirt with a simple white tee is a holiday-party cornerstone, but it just doesn't have the same effect when said tee is too flimsy or lacking shape. That being said, whenever I need to stock up on cool basics, I usually head to Nordstrom first. In case you didn't know, it has some of the best basics brands—like COS, Madewell, and Other Stories—all in one place. The convenience is extremely satisfying.
This season, I'm specifically on the lookout for elevated basics to add into my rotation. Dark-wash denim, everyday sweaters, and sneakers are all on my list, so I spent an embarrassing amount of time thumbing throughReplica Store's selection. The 30 pieces below made the cut.
Happy shopping!
