We're Fashion Editors—These Are the Trendy Basics We Like Buying on Amazon
If you were to look at our Bookmarks tab, you'd find quite the range of shopping sites toward the top of the list. We are fashion editors, after all. On that note, Amazon is a go-to for many of us when we're sourcing chic finds to recommend in our stories. The mega-retailer is also one we turn to when we're looking to add pieces to our own personal wardrobes. In fact, after a discussion in a Slack chat, it became evident that it's the offering of trendy basics that we like buying on Amazon specifically.
Furthermore, a few of us actually shared the key basics that are worth checking out on Amazon. Naturally, we wanted to share the assortment with you below in case you're in need of a little shopping inspiration. Included in the mix? Well, there's everything from of-the-moment button-down shirts to knit dresses.
Keep scrolling to check out what fashion editors are loving at Amazon right now.
Knit Dresses

Loose Denim
In the denim realm, loose jeans continue to reign supreme. And yep, Amazon stocks an A+ range of must-have styles from Levi's and other brands.
Relaxed Button-Down Shirts
When it comes to the top elevated basics of the season, oversize and relaxed button-down shirts are front-runners. That favorite style will add a modern twist to any wardrobe.
Oversize Sweaters
Loose knits are go-tos for fall. Amazon has a nice selection—whether it's an oversize style in the men's department or another relaxed pick.
Forward Leggings
Sure, those classic black leggings will always be popular, but silhouettes with stirrups and split hems are where it's at RN.
