Since the first(?) mention of personal basics here, I feel like the pieces on my list have become more specific. This list pretty much encompasses my entire wardrobe now. At this point in time, I am feeling very comfortable with less. I am recognizing with clarity the things that feel like me, serve me well + endure. It's just that simple.  :)

My current personal basics include:
  • semi-fitted tees :: both long-sleeved + short-sleeved :: my favorites are from mate, doen +  jennypennywood
Picture
  • slightly oversized button-ups :: mine were either bought vintage or have become vintage with time 
Picture
  • semi-fitted sweatshirts :: my favorite is from mate :: they add an extra layer of cozy to any outfit
Picture
  • high-waisted, slim, soft, slightly cropped jeans :: mine are fair-trade certified from Madewell :: they stay up without a belt + work with all my tops + footwear
Picture
  • high-waisted, straight, slightly cropped, olive pants :: my favorites are always soft, vintage, military trousers which adapt to being dressed up or down easily
Picture
  • not-too-short shorts :: mine are from black crane + older, fair-trade certified Madewell
Picture
  • mostly organic cotton leggings :: mine are from Mate :: for staying home, working out + errands too
Picture
  • blundstone boots
  • veja trainers
  • birkenstock arizonas
  • classic tennies

These pieces just work for me + my life right now. The end.  :)

Love,
Jane

I love this, Jane! What a great place to be. I am working toward this as well. It has taken some time, but things are gradually falling into place. Thanks for the link to your first mention of personal basics. It was helpful to see how it has evolved for you.

I always enjoy seeing how others are finding wardrobe contentment. It's such an enjoyable process of discovery! I'm so glad we're on this path together! :)
