9. A Levi's denim jacket I won't even waste your time explaining. You and I both KNOW there's nothing more versatile.
Promising review: "I absolutely love this jacket!!! It goes with just about everything, and is comfortable. I went up a size after reading some of the reviews, and that worked out well for me. The length of the jacket is also a nice feature, it hits right about the hip, and is not a midriff. I'm really glad I ordered this jacket, it's so cute, and I know it will last a lifetime, Levi's makes the best denim wear as far as I'm concerned." —Jo Packer

14. A classic London Fog trench you can throw on over anything and immediately look like an incognito celeb — especially if you throw sunglasses into the mix.
Promising review: "This trench coat is well constructed and very high quality. It looks great over formal attire but can also elevate a casual look. It has a slightly loose fit, as expected with this style, but can be cinched with the belt. It’s lightweight, making it ideal for spring or fall. Just enough to cut the chill and keep you dry in the rain, but not overly warm. This is my second LF trench, the first had a plaid flannel lining which — while very soft and pretty — always made me sweat. This one is perfect!!" —Ash
Get it from Amazon for $98.01+ (available in two colors and sizes XS–3X).
FYI, if you have Amazon Prime, you can give this a spin before you buy it!
15. A pair of high-rise tapered pants that are office-appropriate, but feel *just* like your favorite sweats. My colleague who "avoids pants like the plague" (her words!) is even a big fan.

22. An oversized linen button down prepared to make you look boardroom ready even if you only meet over Zoom now and are definitely wearing plaid pajama pants on bottom...
Promising review: "Great staple shirt. I ordered white in an L which is my true size. I love the stretch! So comfortable. And the fabric is really soft. Yes, it's subtly see-through (I mean, this isn't like a Brooks Brothers shirt), but a nude bra should cover you up fine. And it looks great open and layered as well. I actually love that this isn't a baggy, oversize fit. It looks polished. And upscale. Also purchased the blue with contrast cuffs and collar — very nice as well." —H&M Reviewer
Get it from H&M for $24.99 (available in sizes XS–XXL and in three colors).
23. A cheery cropped cardigan that — if you're asking yourself WWHSD? (That's what would Harry Styles do? ofc) — would look great with a set of pearls.
Promising review: "I love this cardigan! Wore it out on my trip to LA and got tons of compliments from my friends and strangers! It comes in one size, and the fit was a little oversized, which is what I wanted. I washed it once and it did shrink a little bit to fit me a lot better. The material does not feel cheap at all, I was actually surprised at how thick it was. The color was what I was expecting. Overall this sweater did not disappoint! It took maybe two weeks to arrive, but the wait was worth it!" —khanghy nguyen
Get it from Amazon for $28.99+ (available in one size and in five colors).
24. A high-waisted midi skirt with a leg slit you can pop your thigh out of — Angelina Jolie style — for a lil' air.
Promising review: "I was a bit worried this skirt might be see-through or made cheaply, but it’s amazing! The fabric is lightweight fabric but perfect. Great length. Beautiful colors! I’ve worn it twice now. Dressed it up one night for an upscale get together at a high end restaurant one night...wore it another day with a tank and flip-flops for a super casual look...I got nonstop compliments both times. Waiting to see how it washes up, but love it! Holds its shape, too, no wrinkling or bunching at the waist as the day goes on." —Jennifer Ulrich

28. A faux suede moto jacket that you can *literally* wear with anything. There was a time when my mom told me to stop using the word literally 'cause I said it every two seconds, but mom, I swear it's justified in this case!
Promising review: "I could've gone one size smaller if I wanted it more fitted but I like a loose feel. I love the buttery soft material and feel like a runway model in this jacket... I get so many compliments every time I wear it! I now have brown, burgundy, rose pink and can't wait to get the dark spotted one too!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "This is a beautiful blazer! I ordered the pink and it's such a fun color. I'm really impressed with the quality of the fabric. It came out of the package in great shape but I do think it would wrinkle a bit if I packed it in a suitcase. I love the length and how it covers my butt. The sleeves weren't too tight in my upper arms which always seems to be an issue for me with blazers. I definitely want this piece in more colors!" —Ketoinchi
Get it from Amazon for $74.90 (available in sizes XXS–5X and 11 colors).
Psst — if you have Amazon Prime Wardrobe, you can try this piece out before you buy it!

Get it from Beginning Boutique for $49.99 (available in sizes 2–12).
31. An a pair of top-rated Everlane utility pants with accent stitching, patch pockets, and a cool cropped silhouette that reads like you put serious effort into your look even if all you did was slip on a white tee, slide on some Converse, and call it a day.
Promising reviews: "SO COMFY. Love, love, love these pants. They are extremely comfortable and are easily dressed up or dressed as casual as you want them" —kattt
"I love these pants. I’ve got a bit of a booty, and I’ve found that this style of pant works well for us bigger-bottomed gals. I’m also so pleased at how perfectly they fit. Usually, pants that fit in the rear, they’re too big in the waist. However, these are the Goldilocks of pants. I’m ordering more immediately." —Emily Lucille
