fashion friday

ive been on the everlane website browsing for the past several minutes & ive fallen in love with their philosophy. they've cut the middle men out which provides consumers the opportunity to own luxurious basic pieces for a 1/3 of the price. im all about basic pieces as a key staple in anyones ward robe & some are offered at less than $30. im also a huge fan of luxurious fabrics at the fraction of the cost, especially if i intend to get some mileage on the wear, and everlane seems to be a wonderful compromise. the v-necks are $15! what i am curious about, as its an important factor (for me) when considering purchasing clothes, is how it will hold up after several washes. im no longer this carefree teenager nor am i in my early 20's wearing a clothing item once, only to not be worn again. i love most of my clothes to carry through trends & transition throughout the seasons. my love for basic pieces started several years ago when i found myself shopping for solid colored key staples instead of cute patterns that i easily get sick of after one wear. since then creating a timeless wardrobe with a conscious and financially literate approach is important to me. over the years have evolved into a practical shopper & i like to carefully & mindfully choose what i purchase.
