29 Basics That Are So Good, Shopbop Can Barely Keep Them in Stock

by Anna LaPlaca

Here's a shocker to no one: We're expert Shopbop shoppers. During my weekly—often daily—visits to the retailer's site to shop for products I want to feature in my stories (or even treat myself to a little wardrobe update), I've become well-acquainted with their wardrobe basics. So well-acquainted, I might add, that I tend to notice when the stock starts to dwindle on certain items or when they sell out entirely. I decided to put all my knowledge of these best-selling Shopbop basics to work in this roundup. To no surprise, they all happened to be the ones that come highly rated by shoppers, proving that they really are quite versatile and—above all—affordable.

Based on my findings, I thought it would be silly not to share these popular pieces with you. You might even recognize a few of the tanks, shorts, and sandals you see here since I also have the intel that many WWW readers have bought them, too. The order histories and amazing reviews don't lie. These 29 basics are the real deal. But don't just take my word for it—scroll through the below list to discover them all, and then click in to read the reviews and you might just find yourself so inclined to place an order, too. Happy scrolling (and shopping)!

Agolde Rib Tank ($68)

This is just one of the multiple ribbed tanks you're about to see in this edit. Don't @ me—they're the best kind of basic top there is.

Levi's Wedgie Icon Fit Jeans ($98)

Levi's most popular jean style now comes in a summer-ready ivory hue. You know what to do.

Rolla's Midsummer Mini Tulip Dress ~~( $109)~~ $76

This floral number checks many boxes for me and is delightfully on sale, so I can see why it's selling really well right now.

Freedom Moses Two Band Slides ($45)

Sport sandals are trending at the moment, and I predict you'll be living in this comfy pair for the foreseeable future.

Freedom Moses Two Band Slides ($40)

I knew you were wondering, and yes, they also come in black.

Jules Smith Triple Layered Chain Necklace ($70)

Take all the work out of arranging the perfect necklace stack.

Hanes x Karla The Crew Tee ($48)

If I had a dollar for every time someone ordered this classic tee, I'd be rich.

Reformation Rio Sweatshirt ~~( $68)~~ $48

Crew-necks are replacing all my hoodies right now and I might have to add this one to my collection, too.

Madewell Recycled Muscle Tank ($35)

The new class of fashion-girl basics features the muscle tank, and Madewell just made it incredibly easy (and affordable) to try one out.

Levi's 501 Original Shorts ($70)

Levi's is calling these shorts "original," so you know they have to be good.

Re/Done Ribbed Tank ($80)

Presenting the exact tank top fashion girls flip out over.

Commando Perfect Control Leggings ($88)

Just in case your black leggings could use an update.

Madewell Whisper Cotton v Neck Pocket Tee ($20)

The name "whisper" tells me this tee is soft and lightweight.

Beyond Yoga Take Me Higher Long Leggings ($97)

If you haven't experienced the comfort that is Beyond Yoga's space-dye fabrics, consider this your official introduction. The super-soft material and array of cute colors often make me forget that other activewear brands exist.
