Tech moguls Steve Jobs and Mark Zuckerberg wore the same basic outfits every day because it helped them make fewer decisions. “A minute more a day using [Steve Jobs’] brainpower to decide which t-shirt to wear is less brainpower he would have to think about his company,” said Medium.
Take it from the greats. For stress-free mornings, it’s always a good idea to go back to the basics. The best part about wearing basic neutral-colored tees is that they go well with everything that’s already in your wardrobe – jeans, slacks, joggers, and even all styles of jackets. Basic outfits aren’t just about style; they help you make life decisions swift and easy. Check out these online stores where you can cop the freshest basic tees.
