Trends may come and go, but basics are here to stay. A crisp white tee, a leather jacket, a flattering pair of jeans — these style staples are the bread and butter of our wardrobe, season after season. Yes, we add in popular pieces to keep up with the latest looks (we’re currently debating whether we need Adidas Sambas, the sneaker of the summer), but we always go back to our tried-and-true favorites. We can mix and match these essentials with anything in our closet! To quote Lindsay Lohan in Mean Girls, “The limit does not exist.”
There are so many markdowns on basics right now over at the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. But hurry — these deals are going fast! We selected nine of our favorites below so you can quickly add these items to cart.
