After shopping during the holiday season, I wanted to put a pause on buying new clothes for a bit. But after doing market research for a few upcoming stories, there were a few basics I discovered that I thought could be worth considering. The items in question all skew on the affordable side (under $75) and fall in the trend-forward-basics category, so they’re elevated yet still highly versatile.
The specific pieces I’m considering include this H&M coat and these Zara trousers. I also thought you might be interested in some fresh next-level basics, so I pulled together a list of 29 other new basics that might pique your interest.
