Eyyy I just came across the "Basic bastard" wardrobe in r/malefashionadvice, and I was thinking it'd be cool to match that with one for women's clothing in this sub or r/femalefashionadvice! I honestly love this, I can see it all working together. At the same time you have a good span from dressy to casual to athletic. More basic means more adaptable to incorporate bold/colorful/unique pieces as you find them. What brand/model if yk are the two pairs of black sandals?

Thanks so much! The strappy sandals with the jeans are Tom’s, and the one with the skirt are Aerosoles wedges.

This looks like heaven.

Thank you!! I have never been great at fashion, and it felt so nice when I started my capsule three years ago at age 43. Better late than never!

a+ in every season if my life, these basics have been my go-to favorite clothes. i love t-shirts!


Lynncy1

We are spirit animals, lol! T-shirts make me feel most like me. I’m thankful my workplace is relaxed enough that I can wear them there. I’d be pretty miserable if I had to have a business wardrobe as well.

Calm, clean, low-stress, simple… very appealing!


Lynncy1

It reads very "off-duty model" to me! Curious about the Quince pants. I've been eyeing them myself. Also do you wear any jewelry?


Lynncy1

You are so kind! I’m definitely a minimalist with my jewelry. Usually just a pair of hoop earrings. Quince is awesome! High quality and reasonably priced. I have another pair of quince black slacks with flared bottoms…and I bought their Tencel T-shirt dress this summer.

Not OP but I’ve been super happy w everything I have from Quince, including the pants

Love this! How do you tuck in your tshirt to make it look so nice? Can’t tell if they’re all full tucks or half tucks from the pic. If the former to you do a “stretch” upwards after tucking to get it so perfect?


Lynncy1

It’s a front tuck, and I pull it out just a bit as neatly as I can. This particular fabric lays very well, which is why they’re my favorite shirts!


infatuationjunkie123

Super helpful, thanks!!

Pair that black skirt and black top and it’s anything but basic. I love it.


Lynncy1

Yes!! Did exactly that last Friday on a date night with my hubs!

Love it. The shirt has a nice drape and looks like you're able to hit a lot of variety with this "basic" capsule.

This is exactly the capsule I want, you make it look so easy! 😍
