Madewell The Perfect Vintage Wide-Leg Jean

Madewell


I’ve been on the hunt for a new pair of wide-leg jeans that won’t cost a fortune, and these fit the bill. The high-rise jeans have a “tailored” silhouette that gives them a “polished” appearance, according to reviewers. One person also noted that they fit similar to trousers. The pants come in three washes (black, medium, and light) and in petite, tall, and plus sizes to accommodate most body types. They’re made of a cotton-elastane blend fabric that has just enough give to keep you comfy, and it retains its shape as you wear it rather than stretching out. One customer called the jeans their “most-complimented” pants.



Lululemon Ribbed Nulu Asymmetrical Yoga Tank Top

I’m obsessed with the one-shoulder asymmetrical design of this tank. Lululemon shoppers love it, too, calling it “stylish” and “flattering.” The ribbed top provides light support thanks to the built-in shelf bra with removable cups. Not only is the fabric extra soft, but it’s also sweat-wicking and quick-drying, making it functional in addition to being cute. 



J.Crew Cotton-Blend Cropped V-Neck Cardigan Sweater

J.Crew


I’m trying to find more basics for my wardrobe to add versatility, and this V-neck cardigan is perfect. The ribbed sweater is made of cotton and cashmere and has large buttons down the front, and though it contains cashmere, it’s machine washable. According to one reviewer, the material is “plush and soft without being overly warm.” The cardigan has a slightly cropped length that shoppers say doesn’t look “frumpy.” 



Mangopop Crew Neck Long-Sleeve Bodysuit

Amazon


Instead of tucking a regular shirt into bottoms and ending up with a lumpy, wrinkled look, I’ve been trying out bodysuits lately. This long-sleeve crew neck style has a snap closure, but it’s also long enough to wear unbuttoned and simply tucked in. It’s made of a cotton and spandex blend fabric that reviewers say is thick and not see-through. 



Love By Design Mandy Pleated Skirt 

Nordstrom Rack


I’ve been into skirts recently, and I’ve been looking for the perfect pleated style. This skirt has a high-rise waistband with a back zipper, and it contains spandex for stretch. The mini length would look adorable with tights and an oversized sweater for fall and winter, and you can easily transition it to warmer weather with a T-shirt and sneakers. 



Abercrombie & Fitch Vegan Leather Blazer

Abercrombie & Fitch


I like wearing blazers as an effortless way to elevate jeans and a tee, and the vegan leather material of this option adds a touch of edginess. Customers say that the polyester fabric is soft and doesn’t have the “overly shiny look” that some faux leathers can have. The single-breasted blazer has a button closure and two front pockets, and it features button details on the cuffs. One person raved, “This blazer feels like butter and is so classy!”



Everlane The Silky Cotton Way-Short Shirt

Everlane


Button-down shirts are one of my go-to styles, and I love the cropped length of this style to wear with high-waisted pants. The top is available in seven colors, including white, chambray blue, black, and light green, as well as striped variations. You can wear the cotton twill shirt on its own or layer it under a sweater for chillier days.



Wolford Merino Tights

Amazon


If you’re like me and shy away from wearing skirts when the temperatures really drop, you need these tights. Unlike typical styles, this pair is lined with Merino wool to keep your legs toasty all winter. We even named them our “Best Splurge” option in our roundup of warm tights. 



Steve Madden Jeanne Plaid Pleated Mini Skirt

Nordstrom


Along with pleated skirts, I’ve been on the lookout for a fun plaid style, too. Though it’s printed, the gray and brown shades of this skirt are neutral enough to wear with a wide variety of colors. The asymmetrical front gives it a unique look, and it allows the smaller plaid pattern underneath to peek out. 



Alo Airbrush High-Waist 7/8 Bootcut Leggings

Alo


I always wear comfy pants when working from home, so I can never have too many pairs. This style comes in black, white, ivory, espresso, and pink in sizes ranging from 00 to 14. The moisture-wicking, medium-compression fabric is intended for a bunch of different activities, including yoga, running, and walking. And of course, the four-way stretch material is great for lounging, too. The bootcut pants are a 7/8 length that will show off your shoes. One reviewer said that they look equally as cute with platform Uggs as they do with workout sneakers.



Abercrombie & Fitch Wool-Blend Tailored Topcoat

Abercrombie & Fitch


Reviewers call this long coat “absolutely timeless,” and it’s just what I need to look polished on cold winter days. The wool-blend style has a button closure, a slit in the back, and side pockets that shoppers say are “huge.” There are five colors to choose from (black, cream, brown, dark gray, and light gray) and a gray plaid print, and it’s available in regular, petite, and tall, so you can get the perfect length.
