Building an outfit without a closet foundation you’re excited to wear is like trying to build a house on quicksand: It won’t work. This year, set yourself up for meaningful success by making sure that your basics—the building blocks of any form—are solid. We’re talking tees and tanks, denims and trousers, and for the time being, a solid pile of sweaters to get you out.
Basic T
Finding the right T-shirt for you isn’t unlike modern dating: Sure, you might have to kiss a few frogs, but after you’ve figured out what you like—and just as important, what you don’t—You will eventually meet The One. (When you do, we suggest buying multiples.)
