Your apartment might be littered with scented candles, you may watch Friends reruns nightly, and you might just wait all year for pumpkin spice lattes, but we draw the line at a basic b*tch wardrobe. Not sure you fit the description? Last week’s popular College Humor video will set you straight – though, for a quick gut-check, you could just ask yourself, “When was the last time I wore UGGs?”
Don’t fret: not even we are immune to basic b*tch syndrome – or the basic clothes that come with it. I’ll admit there’s a North Face fleece currently hanging in my closet and a pair of long-worn Reva flats I refuse to bag up for Goodwill. So we’re all in this together (I mean, even Emma Stone has admitted to being a “bland, basic b*tch“). Now that we’ve diagnosed the problem, the next step is treatment. We’re not asking that you give up your cosmos at Sex and the City trivia night, just that you stop wearing sweatpants with “sexy” on the butt to brunch. Scroll on to see if your wardrobe could use an upgrade.
