People Editorial Guidelines Published on October 18, 2024 10:00AM EDT Photo: People; Walmart (3) While I’m a huge fan of utilizing a statement piece of clothing to pull an outfit together, the majority of my wardrobe relies on simple basics as the base of all my looks. This includes reliable T-shirts, tank tops, and long sleeves in a variety of neutral colors that I keep stocked in my closet for daily wear. After years of looking for the best basics that I can withstand frequent wash and wear, Walmart has become my go-to for pieces that can be layered and stand alone. Most recently, I added this $3 tank top to my arsenal after receiving a recommendation from a friend, and it has become a staple in my wardrobe. Below, I rounded up more of my top picks for basics at Walmart, all under $25. Best Wardrobe Basics Under $25 No Boundaries Rib Cami Top, $3 No Boundaries Scoop Neck Everyday Tee with Long Sleeves, $5 No Boundaries Scoop Neck Tee with Short Sleeves 3-Pack, $11 No Boundaries Long-Sleeve Brushed Crewneck Tee, $9 No Boundaries Ribbed Crewneck Tee with Long Sleeves, $8 No Boundaries Seamless Crewneck Tee with Long Sleeves, $9 Scoop Wide Ribbed Crewneck Sweater, $22 Scoop Seamless Mock Neck Bodysuit with Long Sleeves, $7–$8 (orig. $22) No Boundaries Rib Cami Top Walmart $3 at Walmart This $3 tank top has been a fall staple due to the higher scoop neckline that looks great under cardigans and the lightweight material that makes it ideal for layering under crewnecks and pullover sweaters. I find that white shirts are most frequently used in my wardrobe, but they also tend to look worn out the quickest. That’s why I like stocking up my closet with packs of these tops that can be used on high rotation. Scoop Seamless Mock Neck Bodysuit with Long Sleeves Walmart $22 $7 at Walmart One of my favorite fall looks is pairing a crewneck sweatshirt or sweater with a mock neck turtleneck that perfectly peaks out of the top, and this bodysuit is an ideal piece for that type of layering. Since I plan on wearing this shirt with other bulkier items on top, I like that it is a bodysuit that won’t ride up or get bunched up underneath another layer. Plus, it comes in a variety of neutral colors, like brown, black, and white, and is on sale for up to 68 percent off. Scoop Wide Ribbed Crewneck Sweater Walmart $22 at Walmart As much as I prefer my basics to be layering pieces that work well with the rest of my wardrobe, I also like when a staple item can be styled on its own. This ribbed crewneck sweater offers just that option since its simple and classic style would look great worn with jeans, leather pants, skirts, and more. The lightweight material is ideal for transitional weather, but it also works well under jackets once the temperature drops. Walmart’s clothing lines are brimming with more staple pieces that are must-haves for year-round styling. Keep scrolling for more of my top picks.
