UPDATE: since filming this video, the post about Everlane‘a treatment of their employees has come to light. The brand has addressed it since, and I will discuss my stance on the brand in my next vlog. Please do not see their inclusion in this video as support of a brand with such practices.

I would be very interested in a LBD testing basics!
Does she even wear that herself?
I love this series. Could you do boots /and or sandals? I would love to know how Dear Frances stacks up in comparison to the other brands.
yes to lbd!! also would be interested in slides (I’m currently struggling to find any that don’t rub) and non-denim mini skirts? 🌞
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!
I love your Testing Basics series. It's such a useful guide to weed out the options that are not worth it. Thank you.
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!
testing basics is my favorite series on youtube, period. Keep them coming! I've learned so much from you and this series, thank you! xx
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!
missed these kind of reviews! this has been interesting
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 :)
loved this! the t-shirt one is so handy i’ve been on the lookout for a good one, so i’ve got my notes thanks for that! also the jeans one was very helpful 👏🏽 I think a dress one would be cool! maybe even cardigans too?
Love it! I ordered 3 pairs of Weekend jeans after watching your recommendation and can't wait for them to arrive!
I loved this so much - such a great overview!
Lizzy, you do basics really well and I highly appreciate your review on these! 😍😍 I just want to live in your closet for basics!!
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 :)
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
Loving the testing basics videos ❤️❤️❤️ I'm been eyeing a few pairs of white jeans so I'm really excited to hear your thoughts!
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.
You can buy weekday jeans on Asos here in US
Ah thank you so so much for this, Lizzy! I will be using this as a centralised reference going forward! Hope you’re well x
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!
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.
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!
Also test the English brand Beaumont Organic for underwear please
I would love a series on tanktops and lightweight knitwear! And thank you so much for this video, it's incredibly helpful.
Well you’ve essentially made a nice warm weather capsule collection, well done! 👍🏽
Socks? Am always looking for great socks, ones that don’t get holes worn in too quick
Yes!!
I’ve got the COS shorts too! I wear it literally everyday it’s unbelievably comfortable wearing😌💕
No more...everlane and reformation
loved this, i need to get some of those white linen shirts 💗💗💗
These are super super helpful, thanks for putting this together Lizzy! On white tanks, would love to see some square necks too!
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
I also recommend the uniqlo men's cashmere sweaters! They are thicker than the women's ones and just feel better quality.
I would love to see an LBD testing basics!!
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.
You are my number one source of inspiration!!
White and cream jeans would be soo good!! I absolutely love this video and so incredibly useful. Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
Lovely video as always! Just to be difficult after you’ve given such a great list of basics - where is the black T-shirt from you have on at the moment? Love the fit !
amazing video lizzy! really well done and super informative!
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
This is such a great video Lizzy, super useful - thank you!!
White jeans and light knits , yess !!!
Tank top and white jeans please! Love your review videos like this btw
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)
Could you possibly share which ones you're referring to? Do they wrinkle? I'm more petite and think I would like the shorter :)
I love your style so so much!
This is such a great video - thank you so much!
Yes for lightweight summer shirts please. ❤
This was exactly what I needed!
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
Claire Lee Shenfield I dont want to bankrupt you, but the Ami trousers are still available (in some sizes) at Farfetch with 50% off. 😉
I would love to see LBD!! and also been waiting for lightweight knitwear!
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!
Brilliant idea!
Yes to lbd and white jeans!
Loved this one so much! ❤️ I’m looking forward to underwear and dresses. Would love a video especially on LBD, also wedding guest outfit inspiration... Thank you! 😘
Love your analysis of clothes. Three ideas which are good evening throw ons. Denim jackets, leather jackets and bras that can be worn with camisoles not strapless nice straps etc
Suuuuuuuuuch a good concept! Thanks!
I love this series :) also, where is your necklace from?
Check out Los Angeles apparel for sustainably made heavyweight cotton tees. They have a great color selection, too.
Brilliant video! Thank you.
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
This is the perfect video on what to get ahead of lockdown freedom. Thank you Lizzy. Stay safe out there guys 💕
Thank you Lizzy ❤️
love this!
Please do the Toteme tank and the realisationpar LBD!
Would love to see a strappy sandal testing basics😊 loved this video Lizzy
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.
Would be great to see basics split out by occasion eg. Holiday basics, Winter basics, maybe Gym basics, etc...
hello for the white jeans I would suggest Victoria Beckham as I love my pair to bits :)
I'm not sure if they ship to the UK, but have you ever checked out Aritzia? I feel like that store is also definitely. your style. xo
I'm all here for the lbd!
Men's white t-shirts look great. Please make more videos.
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!
I would love you to give us recommendations on dresses and skirts in the style of the Reformation ones but that for obvious reasons aren't Ref.
Oh Lizzy, you're the best
and what lenght are the levis 501? im as tall are you
Cream linen trousers would be a nice TB
white jeans please! 🤩🤩🤩
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.
Hi Lizzy. What is the brand of the t-shirt you are wearing while talking to us - the fit looks lovely.
I wanna buy the Arket blazer but I’ve got really long arms even though my size is either a 40-42. Should I just get the bigger size?
how do you menage keeping white trainers from becoming yellow from the wash? my always look worse after washing (superga)
Thank you
What’s the length in the Levi’s jeans? Love those
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.
hi lizzy! do you like the levis 501s cropped more than the column jean?
A basic handbags/backpacks would be interesting too :)
ASOS brand has amazing tank tops in cotton, ribbed, both white and black, basically free how cheap... but those are the comfiest and prettiest ones I’ve found.
Designer Bags round up please..
I would like to see a testing basics bikini version. I really struggle to find a flattering, nice quality bikini and there is so much choice
I LOVE & other stories but I find that a lot of their knitwear is dry clean only which I find a bit of an expensive pain. Do you just hand wash yours or do you get them dry cleaned?
the link to the GAP men's short is dead. Can you re-share? Thanks!
Thank you for addressing the Everlane inclusion problem
sorry, could you explain the everlane inclusion problem? i think i missed that part of the video!
Lizzy, I love your tan. Do you fake tan and if yes, which product do you use?
Thanks for this review Lizzy. It will be handy to have all the categories together as a handy reference. X
what are the size of the weekday denims that you have?
do the levis jeans stretch out?
What is the name of the GAP white button down shirt?
I loved this. But the problem now is, that I want to buy £5000 worth of clothes.
When you do comfy underwear, could you please include MeUndies? Thank you in advance =)
I know everlane has its issues but I really love those shorts, I have been wanting them for ages but the things stopping me from buying them is idk if they are long enough for when I get on my bike they won't ride up? also the size, I am a UK size 6 (100lbs) don't know if I would be a size 00 or 0.
also I'm only 5'0
A collection of pretty summer dress please. Brand like Rat&boa ans ba&sh. I need lizzy approved pieces to jazz up my wardrobe 🌹
LBD & Light weight knitwear!
I must say, H&M do some bloody good jeans, especially the shaping ones. Again Lizzy, thank you for your thorough and honest reviews!
we carry AMI at my store here in Montréal and I love their pieces! really nice cut and it feels more pricy as well. have to say that the Filippa K trousers are my absolute fave, love the baggier fit especially with sandals!! I have been loving my black Eva Birkenstocks for summer with trousers or shorts & I have been eyeing the Filippa K slides as well. would love if you did a sandal / slide round up!!💛
