And because many of us rely on basics to build our signature wardrobes, Wright provided her edit of staple items she thinks work for everyone. 

So without further ado, keep scrolling to check out the seven basics that this former Nordstrom buyer swears by for a chic wardrobe. You can also shop the staples below.
