42 Basics You Have to Buy From Shopbop, Nordstrom, and Net-a-Porter Right Now
Did you know I love basics? It's true—I live in them. Jeans, T-shirts, simple (but amazing shoes), and classic outerwear not only make up the majority of my wardrobe but make up the bulk of my outfits both for day and night.
Do you know what else I love? Making shopping for things I know our readers want exponentially easier than it already is. Because while perusing through countless websites and pages of products is pretty much my job (actually it is literally my job), I know that not everyone has the time. So much like I do every week with my roundup of the best new arrivals, today I'm bringing you all the best basics from some of my favorite sites, all in one place.
From the aforementioned pieces to skirts, tops, totes and more, there are so many amazing essentials on Shopbop, Nordstrom, and Net-a-Porter at the moment that I actually had trouble narrowing my favorites down to just 42. But I did, so to shop my top picks from each site, simply scroll down—and thank me later.
Shopbop
Vince has mastered pretty much all basics, but this one is particularly good.

Net-a-Porter

Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here at Who What Wear, and she is currently Editor-at-Large. Upon joining, she was a senior about to graduate from business school at USC. Fast-forward to 2025, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was just starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content and her Trust Me—Buy This newsletter. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to neutral, classic pieces but will always make an exception for something colorful or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a party is dressing up for one. On her downtime, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious and trying to force her husband to watch Summer House.
