Smart Apparel: America's Basics

Wearing something as plain and simple like a basic tee, when paired with the right jeans and perfect shoe can be quite stylish. Perhaps the only brand name that comes to mind upon hearing basic apparel is American Apparel. I was an avid fan of their clothing, until their support on a socio-political issue gave me cause to seek an alternative resource. And with our ailing economy, a $20 American Apparel t-shirt started to feel more of a luxury.

A couple of months back I was introduced to America's Basics, a more affordable brand of basic clothing. I have to admit the quality of their merchandise was in question after seeing t-shirts selling for 4 / $20 and $3 / $20. You can mix and match of styles, colors and sizes and group price mix between the 4/20 & 4/30 with NO restrictions applied plus free delivery on orders $50 or more! I wondered if the items on sale were defective or made with poor quality fabrics.

My skepticism was out the window after seeing one of my girlfriends wearing a plaid blouse by America's Basics. The fabric and workmanship rivals that of American Apparel with prices that can't be beat. Now, that's 'smart' stylin'.
