30 Wardrobe Basics I'd Splurge on and 30 More Affordable Options

I'll admit it—I haven't always been the best at prioritizing basics when shopping. I'd often reach for trendier pieces because they would quickly capture my attention, but I'd end up struggling to put outfits together in the morning. It wasn't until I started working atBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing and learning from my fellow editors that I realized that I have to opt for the staple piece instead of the trendy item that may be an Instagram hit in order to create a long-lasting wardrobe. That's not to say I won't be buying a funky item here and there, but I also need to work on keeping my basics up to snuff.

Whether it's a pair of relaxed trousers from Totême or a sleek blazer from H&M, there are a plethora of trusty basics waiting for you no matter your budget. Below, I've relayed 31 staple items that I think are worth the investment and 29 basics that are very budget friendly. Keep on scrolling to take a look and, hopefully, shop.
