I'm a J.Crew Shopper, and These New Elevated Basics Are the Epitome of Chic

I love a J.Crew moment. The retailer has been a mainstay in my closet for years, but I've been shopping J.Crew more and more over the last few months for quality basics. I also routinely curate edits of standout merchandise for you, dear readers. After all, with Olympia Gayot (pictured above) at the helm of womenswear and childrenswear, the latest collections have been top-notch. On that note, I thought I'd put together a list of the current pieces I think are beyond chic.
Specifically, I focused on elevated basics. By this, I'm referring to items that are forward but aren't fleeting and will have longevity past just one season given classic design details. Below, you'll uncover the collection of pieces that I think are just divine and could have the potential to become new staples in your wardrobe.
