    I have watched your testing basics from the beginning. These are the best and most useful videos I have seen from anyone! I consider this wardrobe research gold. I often buy using your favorites. Thank you so much for this!

  • @sharifa7561
    @sharifa7561 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Perfect video! I love the fact that most of the pieces you had for a while which further proves how you’ve continually worn. Miss your vlogs and can’t wait for more content!

    Thanks for addressing the Everlane "controversy" in your description box :) I admire what you do SO much! You are really sensible with sustainability and buying less, and you put so much hard work in your videos and seem to genuinely care about what your audience wants to see. I hope you continue what you do for many more years!

    This is my favorite series, love it! In the future, could you consider putting what size items you wear down in the description? Some you tell us what size you wear and some you don't. It would be very helpful :)

  • @capiiburra
    @capiiburra 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Queen of beautiful long wearing basics thanks Lizzy! I’ve purchased a few items based on your recommendation and never looked back. I would love a video on styling tips or basics for wearing out at night...Such as good places to source dresses/ skirts/ tops / shoes for dinners and nights out that is a little dressier than my beloved uniform of jeans/ pants and a nice knit! xx

  • @iamtherealjulia
    @iamtherealjulia 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Love love love these series!...thank you for including American brands (or brands available in the US). Much as I swoon over the Arket and Weekday items, sadly they do not ship to the US.

    Socks? Am always looking for great socks, ones that don’t get holes worn in too quick

  • @thelovecatsinc
    @thelovecatsinc 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    For tank tops, the Weekday Stella tank is honestly theee best. So soft, so comfortable! Would love little black dresses. For underwear, the Sloggi Go Allround range is phenomenal - one size and insanely comfy.

  • @user-lg1vc9kl8v

    Re: cotton shorts, H&M used to do great ones in their l.o.g.g. range, i have 3 pairs and i have been living in them the past 4 summers. The ones they do now are the same style, but shorter ( i prefer the longer ones i have)

    • @sunnyh7175
      @sunnyh7175 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Could you please test out Organic Basics when you do underwear please? I’m so curious about the brand and am looking for more sustainable options!

    • @beaherzberg
      @beaherzberg 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes! I’m in agreement! I would love to see organic underwear. A few months ago I ordered a few pairs from Pact and was sorely disappointed! Really curious about other brands.

    • @annikafeliciahebben6051
      @annikafeliciahebben6051 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Chloe Kian is doing reviews of sustainable clothes (basics). She also did a video on underwear including OB :)
      I also have several things from them and can confirm they are great!

    • @saysissel
      @saysissel 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Also test the English brand Beaumont Organic for underwear please

  • @LydiaHudgens
    @LydiaHudgens 4 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    I’d really love to see you focus on a testing basics that offers a wider size range? So more inclusive? I tend to size out on most of these & it’s a bummer!

  • @trevilley
    @trevilley 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Buying the uniquo tees were great. I love the softness of the fabric and they haven’t altered shape after wash. I will try the everlane and arket soon. Sadly Uniquo has sold out of cashmere in the oversized range. I just keep checking

  • @emilycheng8784
    @emilycheng8784 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    These are super super helpful, thanks for putting this together Lizzy! On white tanks, would love to see some square necks too!

  • @lonelychildproject
    @lonelychildproject 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    thank god some of these things are sold out otherwise my bank account would be crying even more than it is after watching this video - thank you as ever for your recommendations lizzy, i hardly ever buy anything without your blessing now as i can't risk it !! think we're going to end up with matching tailored trouser, t shirt and linen shirt filled wardrobes before long xx

  • @MultiRumorhasit
    @MultiRumorhasit 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I also recommend the uniqlo men's cashmere sweaters! They are thicker than the women's ones and just feel better quality.

  • @TheOneIndex
    @TheOneIndex 4 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    I know you probably have brand recommendations coming out of your ears, but you should check out Kotn. It is a ~more~ sustainable (and affordable!) cotton brand from Canada. Their is stuff is super basic, but very cool and I think you'd probably be into it

  • @Laura-uu2js
    @Laura-uu2js 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thanks so much for this video Lizzy. Always such great content, so informative and so concise. I always look out for your recommendations! Honestly one of the best out there :)

  • @annacrowley828
    @annacrowley828 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    A good company for basics, imo, is For Days. Good white ts and ribbed tanks. They're a closed loop company too, so once you're shirts getting dirty you swap them out for another one at a lower cost and they recycle the old material

  • @xoxogossipgoat21

  • @xRyokucha
    @xRyokucha 4 ปีที่แล้ว +16

  • @TheAllanahByrne
    @TheAllanahByrne 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Just a psa for any girls with big hips or thighs. Weekday and levis jeans are tricky. I'm a size 14 and struggle to find any that fit, and I always get the waist gap at the back. Even in the levis stretch denim styles.
    I've never found a weekday pair that fits.

    I must say, H&M do some bloody good jeans, especially the shaping ones. Again Lizzy, thank you for your thorough and honest reviews!

  • @salemweresh6215
    @salemweresh6215 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Can you please do a video, or include when testing basics, how to best care for specific materials? I'm always worried to purchase cashmere because I don't want to have to send items to a dry cleaners !! But I've heard you mention several times that they wash well - curious what the best practices are washing materials like cashmere at home.

  • @serenity8910
    @serenity8910 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I might try the men's Uniqlo U t-shirts because I have the women's ones and I find the sleeves to be just a tad too short. So maybe the men's version is a better look. Are they also on the fitter side? I wear a XL for the women's version (I'm usually between a M/L) because I prefer a looser fit!

  • @alexandra6864

      Yes, customs and taxes but it's added to the total when u pay online so u know how much you'll be paying. No surprises from the delivery person.

    • @MargoLondinium

    • @alyssaaustin3960
      @alyssaaustin3960 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      They come in 26",28", and 30". If you're the same height as lizzy I'd reccomend the 30" inseam. I'm 5'5" and my inseam is 28". You can also measure your leg length to find out what would be best for you if u have a tap measuerer, measure from like your crotch area to your ankle and subtract a couple inches to figure out what length you need for a cropped fit.
