Default Basics defined

What categorizes fabric as a 'basic'? I have no clue. When looking at the online stores basics-section, I don't see what they are using to define a fabric as a basic.

I'm hoping to get some help with this. So far I've just been picking material that follows what's on the pattern-picture as close as I'm able. But I'd like to be able to pick my own. However, when I get to a quilt shop or look online, I become very confused.

My local quilt-shop lady said to 'just pick it like you would when you're picking your clothes'. That didn't seem to help me at all.

Hoping you can help,
