The Basic B*tch Gift Guide by Memphis Workshop gives you gift ideas for you mainstream best friend. The artistic endeavor gives a tongue-in-cheek perspective of what to buy your Louis Vuitton-wearing, Starbucks-drinking, and atomizer-inhaling friend. A 'basic b*tch' is often defined as a girl who enjoys and partakes in over-exhausted fads and crazes. From gel manicures to UGGs, these items are all enjoyed by mainstream society.
What makes this gift guide so unique is the photography and art direction created by Memphis Workshop. Although the gift guide is fake in nature, the artistic creation is something to marvel at. Making mainstream items look less "basic," the Basic B*tch Gift Guide is a humorous way to laugh at the things we all indulge in.
