11 Basics I'm Considering Stockpiling in Case They Ever Stop Making Them

Given my fashion-editor profession, trying basics from new brands and new basics from my favorite brands is the norm for me. And while I frequently find new pieces I love enough to wear on repeat, the bulk of my basics collection is made up of items I wear over and over, and often end up buying in more colors after I initially fall in love with said item.
Truth be told, I'm so hooked on my favorite basics that sometimes random thoughts pop into my head about what I would do if and when the brand decides to stop making them. Aside from mildly panicking, the only solution I can come up with is to stockpile these basics now. Yes, they're good enough that I'm honestly tempted.
If you're as curious as I'm guessing you are, keep scrolling to shop my desert-island basics along with me while we still can.
Reformation Dusk Tank Top
Ever since it was released, this elegant boatneck tank from Reformation has had a cult following. The tank, pictured above on Liv Perez, is released in new colors and prints each season (and continues to sell out), as a testament to its popularity. The quality and the price point are great.
Agolde Valen Jeans
I've owned multiple Agolde styles over the years, but the Valen jeans are my current favorite. They're a surprisingly comfortable mid-rise straight-leg style that's the perfect length. I'm planning on ordering the light wash for summer next.
Leset Margo Tee
Leset's Margo tee is a boxy (but not oversize) high-quality tee that holds its shape and isn't see-through in the least. It can be a bit too heavy for the hottest of summer days, but otherwise, it's perfect. You'll want to own it in multiple colors—trust me.
J.Crew Garçon Linen Shirt
It's not easy finding a great quality linen button-down for less than $100, but look no further. J.Crew's is soft, machine washable, comes in tons of colors, and it looks expensive. It works great with jeans, skirts, as a swimsuit cover-up—you name it.
Lululemon Align Leggings
You know those leggings that you're disappointed about when they're in the dirty clothes hamper? That's what Lululemon Align Leggings are for me. They're comfortable, flattering, hold up well after dozens of washes—I could go on. Do yourself a favor and try them.
Polo Ralph Lauren Baseball Cap
My Polo Ralph Lauren baseball cap obsession knows no bounds. I wear one at some point almost daily. They're classic and cool, and they protect your face from the sun. It's $50 well spent, in my opinion.
Posse Rio Top
Posse makes some of the coolest linen in the game. The quality is beautiful and worth the investment. The button-front, sleeveless Rio Top is one of my most-worn pieces.
ALO Accolade Sweatshirt
I own this sweatshirt in five colors, and I'm not stopping there. The fit is perfectly oversize (I size down since it's unisex), the weight is just right, and it's super soft. If you spot me walking my dog, going to Pilates, are exiting a Starbucks, I'm probably wearing this. Don't miss out on the seasonal color drops—they tend to sell out fast.
Artless Forever Kit Mini Skirt
At 5'4", I have a bit of trouble with miniskirt lengths. Ones that are on the long side aren't flattering on me, but I don't want to wear ones that are too short. But then I discovered the Artless Forever Kit Mini Skirt. I sized up to a medium, and I'm glad I did, because it sits lower on the hips and adds just a bit of extra length. Bonus: It's machine washable and doesn't wrinkle.
Anine Bing Kate Jeans
I love everything Anine Bing makes (especially the blazers), so I don't know what took me so long to try the brand's denim. It doesn't disappoint. The ones I'm wearing on repeat are the Kate Jeans. I sized up (as instructed) and they're a bit snug at first, but perfect after a couple of hours of wear. They're clean and timeless, and I plan on buying more washes very soon.
Reformation Olina Linen Pants
I'm ending this roundup how it began: with Reformation, which makes my holy-grail linen pants. They're thick (for linen, and it's a good thing) and not too slim but not too baggy. Plus, they come in a ton of colors, and you can throw them in the washing machine. (Don't worry—they'll be good as new after a quick steam.)
