Janet Gunn and Melissa Meyers are back with some more sartorial guidance. The stylish Los Angeles–based duo recently shared with us the flat shoe trends they’re going to be opting for instead of heels this season. Next up, we thought we’d dive deeper into their stance on various basics and other versatile items.

Both Gunn and Meyers rely on basics to balance out their day-to-day ensembles. While they have go-to pieces they won’t give up due to their easy-to-style nature, there are some simple pieces they probably won’t wear as much this season given their somewhat outdated feeling. Of course, you should always wear whatever you love no matter what anyone says, but for Gunn and Meyers, some items just feel slightly fresher than others.

With all that in mind, keep scrolling for the list of basics and other items they’re all about, complete with shopping inspiration.

On Meyers and Gunn: Zara blazers. "Fitted blazers take a back seat in our closets this season as we make room for the oversize trend. It's all about being comfortable and chic." — Gunn

On Gunn: Anine Bing blazer

On Meyers: Helmut Lang pants

On Meyers: Theory trench. "A lightweight trench coat is the perfect outerwear piece to transition from spring to summer. A chic and fresh option instead of a typical cropped jacket." — Meyers

On Gunn: H&M trench

On Meyers and Gunn: Agolde jeans. "We love staying stylish, but we also love being comfortable. While still stylish, this last year had us trading in our skinny jeans from time to time in favor of a more relaxed style." — Meyers

On Gunn: Janessa Leoné hat. "Wide-brim hats still serve a purpose at the beach or poolside, but around town, a playful bucket hat keeps us looking stylish and protects our faces from the California sun." — Gunn

On Gunn: Elaine Kim set. "Tie-dye continues to be a hot trend, but it’s definitely evolving. As we start to venture out more, you’ll find us wearing our favorite tie-dye as silks instead of sweats." — Gunn
