Basic-ally Right

When picking your outfit for the day, it is extremely easy for me to grab for a gold studded and embellished leather jacket or try to figure out how to incorporate a faux fur vest into my outfit; But, the only way you can work more detailed and daring pieces into your outfit is by pulling them together with the basics. With basics being the foundation of a wardrobe, they clearly prove they are the most critical part of an outfit. The other day, I was trying to put together an outfit for going out when I realized that I didn't have a pair of plain, dark wash jeans. Really, Raechel?! I only own a pair of dark wash distressed jeans, which let's be honest, do not go with everything. At that point I knew I had to write a post on the necessity of basics in a wardrobe. I thought through most of the outfits that I wear and have chosen the top 15 basics you NEED to have for this fall.



I may have gone a littleeee overboard on the amount of basics, but the more options the better. I hope these choices help you out when planning your outfits in the morning this fall! To shop all of my exact picks above, check out our polyvore. Happy October 3rd, biotch!
