In fact, a minimalist set of high-quality basics is not only attainable, it\u2019s also style-savvy.<\/p>\n<p>Basics are the foundation upon which a wardrobe is built, so they\u2019re worth careful consideration. Seek out pieces in natural, durable fabrics such as cotton or linen. Avoid anything polyester, the Frankenstein\u2019s Monster of the fashion world. It\u2019s unlikely to wear well with time, kinda like a shotgun Vegas wedding, or dodgy pub carpets.<\/p>\n<p>For dependable basics, go H&amp;M, Urban Outfitters and Uniqlo.

We both know what will happen: the card machine will emit that hostile beep, the one designed by Harvard sound engineers to humiliate people.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, shoes tend to suffer more wear than clothes (mainly because they\u2019re on your feet) and cheap pairs quickly look, well, cheap. Be strategic. Ask for fancy shoes on gift-worthy occasions such as your birthday.
