the basic essentials i wear all the time. yeah it's almost all black, i live in Melbourne ok!!!
Sezane Max shirt in white cotton
My ideal white button-down, this shirt travels easily; fits me in three sizes; tucks, hangs, and cuffs well for styling optionality; and is a true all-season textile. I also own the Max in five other fabrics, but this one is elite. I need to buy a backup or three.
This is basic, but it’s so timeless. I get giddy to pull mine out every autumn. Mine is from Sezane and one of my best clothing purchases to date.
Absolutely classic. I’ve had mine for about 7 years.
Unfortunately worth every single penny! This sweater is my go to and I want it in more colors! I have a light grey but am eyeing the navy.

You can go tailored or over sized, but either way this a great layering piece- I love to wear with dark jeans and boots to a dinner with a fun necklace or over a swimsuit with my white linen pants

Uniqlo Women's Crew Neck T-Shirt
another uniqlo find! one of my favorites. can size down, buy tts, or size up for a slight oversized fit! either way, they are crispy white and clean. i love the the thickness of the band collar. great on its own, or layered under a sweater.
I consider myself something of a white T-shirt connoisseur, and this is, without question, the best everyday white tee I’ve found. Great collar, good weight, perfect length, actually holds up, and a very reasonable price point, especially considering my cost per wear. It is firmly part of my daily uniform. For reference, I’m 5’11” with a pretty normal torso length (verging on short-ish). It’s ever so slightly cropped on me, which is exactly where I want it to hit. I’ve recommended it to friends of all different heights and body types, and so far, everyone loves it.

Uniqlo HEATTECH Extra Warm Cashmere Blend T-Shirt
Such a workhorse--I wear one to bed every night in the summer if there's air conditioning, and under my clothes every day in the winter. The lower scoop neck on these makes them easy to conceal beneath a button down or sweater. Cozy, ultralight, perfect.
my every day tank top… I have it in white, red, and black. such a nicely made tank top that will last !
my every day cashmere sweater, I usually buy them when they have their cashmere sales.

i recently wore my favorite pair of Ref jeans (from their pre-private equity era) to the point where a hole ripped in the knee. i would rather buy one perfect pair of (pricey) jeans than five pairs of jeans that are good enough but not quite right. I'll be wearing this pair from Still Here until I rip a hole in the butt, and probably after too.
First of all, AYR is IT when it comes to denim. 3 inseams, no math required to envision how the jeans on the 5'11" model will work for you. These are my favorite - a classic straight leg with vintage vibes, perfect high but not too high rise, 99% cotton, not trying too hard.
Specifically in the Rolling in the Dough wash. It looks bizarrely blue online, but the wash is perfect in person. The wash matters here because MOTHER changes the denim composition depending on the color. I tried the white version of these and they were completely wrong - different feel, different fit, immediate return. But these? Possibly the most flattering jeans ever created. The fuller shape somehow makes your legs look slimmer, longer, and leaner, while still feeling basically like sweatpants. One sizing note: go down a full size. I am a tried-and-true 27 in basically all denim and needed a 26 in these. They also come in petite, which is a major plus for some of my friends.
Uniqlo Oxford Boxy Cropped Shirt
This is a great shirt. Affordable, washes well, great cut for high waisted pants, 10/10.

Organic Cotton Poplin Big Shirt
Several oversized button-ups must be in rotation at all times. I don't make the rules.

There's just so much to love about a long sleeve tee that I don't know where to start. So comfortable, keeps you just warm enough, always feels cozy, and is sort of unexpectedly chic. It's also nice to sleep in one every now and then and keep your arms outside of the covers. Maximum cozy comfort.
