The Complete Capsule: The 35 Best Wardrobe Basics for Women

Behind every immaculate outfit or fabulous wardrobe is an arsenal of reliable basics. It’s all well and good having the latest It bag or trend piece, but getting dressed will always be difficult if you don’t have the foundations right too. Once you find the perfect black blazer, pair of jeans or pair of sandals, you never need to find another one again. So it’s worth putting in the time to find the best versions of these staples—when you own the perfect tee or white shirt, there’s no need for mediocre duplicates that won’t ever make you feel as good. This only-go-for-the-very-best approach to shopping leads to not only a tighter wardrobe that is made to last but also a more polished look overall.
