If there is one thing my friends are always asking me for, it's fresh basics that can make their wardrobe look "richer.” With everyone's love of quiet luxury only growing with each season and being my friend’s go-to fashion person/shopping encyclopedia, I gladly accept the task of finding the best elevated-looking basics out there. Of course, I wish I could stock my closet full of Khaite, The Row, and Toteme, but my budget has something different in mind. I wanted to curate a list of elevated basics that don’t sacrifice style for price. I wanted to get my hands on a new scarf coat, some chic flats, a new pair of jeans, and outerwear pieces to top off all of my winter looks.
Keep scrolling to see which elevated basics I’m sending my friends for the upcoming season.
