There’s absolutely a negative stigma associated with the term “basic b*tch.” But alas, there are perks to being “basic…”

1. You have the perfect Mean Girls quote for every situation.

 

2. Your complicated Starbucks order is quite impressive to the cute barista.

I’m not picky, I just know what I want.

 

3. Autumn is your thing.

Apple picking, pumpkin spiced lattes, and comfy sweaters–yes, please!

 

4. You know the perfect Insta filter for every type of picture.

Obviously “Valencia” is perfect for your hiking picture.

 

5. Eyebrows on fleek. Always on fleek.

 

 

6. You can jam out to any Taylor Swift song under the sun.

Her first, self-titled album is still gold.

 

7. You’re awesome at gift giving.

With the holiday season rolling around, this skill will come in clutch.

 

8. Your Snapchat streaks are unreal.

You and your BFF recently hit the 200 milestone.

 

9. Rain doesn’t phase you.

Rainy days? Great! Perfect time to wear my cute rain jacket and Hunter boots.

 

10. You know who you are and you own it.

Yes I am basic, and I love it.
