I Find the Cutest Basics at Shopbop—These 30 Styles Have My Attention
It's widely known that basics are the foundation of a smart, stylish wardrobe, and anyone in the fashion world will tell you to invest in those everyday essentials. Look at the coveted French-girl style, built on high-quality basics. In recent years, however, a stigma has come to surround the word "basic," so I want to debunk the idea that basic (especially basic wardrobe pieces) means boring, average, or tasteless. Never underestimate the power of a white tee or tailored blazer in creating elegant, timeless outfits.
Because there's no such thing as too many white T-shirts or pairs of jeans, I'm always hunting down core pieces to add to my wardrobe. In the basics department, Shopbop gets me every time. From classic denim to soft sweaters that last forever, the retailer sells elevated basics for your everyday outfits. I repeatedly find unique styles of wardrobe staples on this editor-approved site, and these are the best updated basics I'm eyeing right now.
