Ask Our Fashion Writers Anything: Wardrobe Basics Edition

In our semi-regular advice column, “Ask the Strategist,” we answer your most burning shopping questions by surveying friends, calling up experts, and drawing on our own personal experience. For this edition, we’re going live (or rather, live-ish). On Friday, September 13, our fashion writers Liza Corsillo and Ambar Pardilla are going to be answering your questions live in the comments. All you have to do is ask.

Liza’s specialities are men’s style (she wrote our guide to the best white T-shirts for men) and other basics such as swimwear (recently, she tested out a bunch of one-size-fits-most crinkle swimsuits). Ambar’s specialities are jeans (she’s tried almost every style) and true basics, like underwear and bras. Drop your comments below, and Liza and Ambar will reply from 12 to 1 p.m. ET on Friday. If you’ve never commented on the site before, here’s how: If you have a New York Magazine account, then log in and you’re all set. If not, you can create a new account (it’s free!) using the “Sign in” link in the comments section. You can also log in with Google or Facebook. See you below the line!

The Strategist is designed to surface the most useful, expert recommendations for things to buy across the vast e-commerce landscape. Some of our latest conquests include the best acne treatments, rolling luggage, pillows for side sleepers, natural anxiety remedies, and bath towels. We update links when possible, but note that deals can expire and all prices are subject to change.
