The Best Aritzia Basics Under $100 for a Chic New York City Summer
27 finds I'm into.
It’s easy to observe fashionable girls at a New York Fashion Week event and think that their style boils down to how they styled the season’s biggest trends. In-demand pieces are great, but true New York fashion girls understand that under-$100 basics are the way to go when building a timeless look, and you don’t need to look any further than Aritzia’s new-in selection to find the best options.
Aritzia has mastered the basics category. Its lineup consists of staples like linen pants, oversized button-downs, white T-shirts, and versatile tank tops. With every new collection, the Canadian label provides its shoppers with fresh iterations to complete their wardrobe rotation. However, more products mean more digging to find the best picks. So, I took on the hard part for you and curated a chic, easy summer capsule wardrobe at Aritzia that you can rely on for perfect work outfits or vacation-ready looks.
