34 Nordstrom and Bloomingdale's Buys for When You Desperately Need Basics

Basics are one of those fashion categories that can feel like a drag to shop for, but once you have them, you don't know how you lived without them. For that reason, I'm here to make the process of improving your wardrobe a little less painful by doing the shopping for you. As someone who works from home, I pretty much live in basics for most of the week, so I guess you can say I'm kind of an expert in the arena. 

I've found that two of the very best retailers for basics and Nordstrom and Bloomingdale's. Between the two of them, literally every everyday item you could need from head to toe is available. I scoured both sites and found tons of basics from a variety of brands and at a variety of price points, all of which will save you from those dreaded I have nothing to wear moments (which are typically the result of not having enough good basics).

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair.

These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
