    hey,
    just wondering if any of you can recommend the best place to get basics like plain black/white vests/tank tops/t-shirts as well as jeans?
    im tired of buying cheap stuff that loses its shape or goes bally etc.

    i have a white tank top i got in topshop about 10 years ago and its still in good shape but i dunno if topshop do quality basics anymore?...its been a while since i could afford to shop in places other that pennys/dunnes/h&m
    ive the same prob with jeans...the past few years ive been buying cheap stuff like skinny jeans in pennys etc but there such false economy. i recently got a pair of jeans by jasper conran in debemhams and though the fit is good..they get a bit too loose around the bum after one wear...not great for 6eur.
    im looking to spend more but to get better fit and longer wear out of basic stuff...any suggestions?:)

    I find M&S really good - they have vests in the underwear section and I picked up some Limited Collection basic black vest/tshirts/long sleeve ts recently which I'm really liking.

    I like Street One, Vila and Vero Moda for basic tops. Savida at Dunnes is also worth a look, their tops wash well.
    Still looking for the perfect jeans so no real help there but I find Tesco skinnies better than Penneys ones :)
