At the beginning of each season, I take a good, hard look at what I already own and decide which pieces are due for an update. These are the kind of pieces that my winter wardrobe is built on: a few pairs of jeans, a few chunky knits, and other layer-ready pieces that will keep me warm. And when it comes to finding the perfect basics to replace my old versions, I obviously head to Madewell.
What was once just my favorite spot for jeans has become one of my go-to destinations when I need to add a few new wear-everywhere pieces into my collection, and this season is no different. I was on the hunt for a turtleneck and ended up finding 30 of the best updated basics that I can't wait to live in this season.
If you, too, are in the mood to shop for a few new elevated winter basics from Madewell, keep scrolling. I have my eye on every single one of the pieces on this list, from a bunch of holiday party–ready dresses to some seriously amazing knits.
