Every once in a while its nice to pay homage to the basics. The items of clothing that are the staples in your closet. The ones that become the canvases to your bolder pieces, like giant necklaces, earrings or a fabulous bag. These are the things I rarely think about picking up, but always find that I need.

Since I don't find basics shopping trips to be the most enjoyable, I like to knock it all out in one store. For me, nine times out of ten, I am going to make my first stop Gap. They are the queen of great tees, jeans and they are always having a sale. Their workout wear is amaze too! 

I did not realize until I started writing this post that I am basically a Gap ad in this shoot. But I absolutely love a good stripe, I have this tee in gray/white too. And a bright scarf, making me feel like its spring, during these cray, wayy too cold weather temps we've been having. Add a perforated white loafer from Target, if you can believe it, and all I kept thinking is that I really need a tan.
