1. A chic monochromatic sweater and pencil skirt set I have had on my wishlist for so long — I'm pretty sure it's the definition of an easy outfit. No need to spend any extra time figuring out if your skirt matches your sweater when you know this look will stand out.
Promising review: "I love this set. The quality is good. The skirt is a bit thinner than the sweater, so I wore Spanx underneath. It’s soft, warm, and cozy. The material isn’t itchy. I will have these pieces on repeat. It’s also Pantone’s color of the year. Buy it!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $59.90 (available in sizes XS–XXL and in five colors).
2. A broken-in baseball cap capable of turning any bad hair day into a chic outfit day because as soon as you put it on with your favorite lounge set, you'll feel like a celeb hiding from the paparazzi as you head into the grocery store.
Promising review: "This cap is so perfect, and you can throw it on with any outfit! I got beige colored one, and my sister got the white baseball cap. Both are such staples in our wardrobe now! And the fit is perfect. I love the little brown leather adjustable strap in the back, very luxe and high quality." —SAM97
Get it from Madewell for $29.50 (available in three colors).
3. A pair of Levi's straight-leg jeans here to make you feel so on trend without compromising on the comfort you love from your favorite skinny jeans (RIP). And the best part about these jeans? They'll instantly elevate any top you already have in your closet.
Promising review: "I love these! I have been looking for a nice straight leg with a super high waist, and this is it! Great fit. They're snug but not too tight, super comfortable. They have a little give and stretch out slightly after wearing but not too much." —Amazon Customer
Get them from Amazon for $69.50 (available in sizes 22–44 and in 10 colors).
4. A trench coat giving me such Parisian chic vibes no matter if you wear it over jeans and a white tee or a nice dress. And you don't want to be known as the person who didn't get the classic trench, do you? (Yes, that was a Hills reference. I am STILL upset LC didn't choose Paris. Ugh.)
Beginning Boutique is a woman-owned small business based in Brisbane, Australia that has a variety of more affordable fashion pieces.
Get it from Beginning Boutique for $99.99 (available in sizes 2–10).
5. A mockneck bodysuit you can wear either as a stylish top on its own *or* as a base layer when you've got your heart set on a cute outfit that isn't appropriate for the cold weather outside.
Promising review: "It fits AMAZINGLY, and I cannot emphasize that enough. The material feels very high quality, and it has a bit of a stretch to where the shirt is form-fitting and super comfortable. I have very long arms and was afraid that the sleeves might be a bit short, but no! Also, the clasp at the bottom is not stressed at all, and I can't actually feel that it is there, like it should be. I'm very happy and satisfied with this purchase. :D" —Madison Beard
Get it from Amazon for $19.98+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and 28 colors).
6. A ribbed sweater set you can wear with your favorite jeans for a simple yet fashion-forward look all your friends will be swooning over at brunch.
Janet Gwen is an Asian woman-owned small business founded by Janet Hoang in Charlotte, North Carolina in 2014 when she was just 19. The company now creates elevated essentials including apparel, tech accessories, home goods, and more.
Get it from Janet Gwen for $78 (available in sizes S–L and in beige, black, and sage).
7. A pair of wide leg stripe pants for an elegant take on sweatpants you can totally wear to work (or out to dinner with friends). You'll basically feel like a spy with a secret because nobody will know how ridiculously comfortable you are the whole time.
Promising review: "I’ve been waiting my entire life for these pants. They’re comfy but also very stylish. Perfect for work or a weekend out. Then length is amazing (even for a tall 5’10” woman). I plan on wearing them every day!" —Amy K.
Get it from Universal Standard for $145 (available in sizes 00-40 and in four color combinations).
8. A faux-shearling moto jacket here to solve the dilemma of what to wear when you wanna feel stylish but it's frigid outside. Reviewers confirm this jacket is surprisingly warm — so much so that one person felt comfortable in -5 degree weather in it.
Promising review: "This jacket is amazing. It looks expensive. It is extremely comfortable and warm, yet not too hot. Seriously, I wore it in 60-degree weather and was not too hot. I wore it in -5-degree weather, yes that’s right, and I was comfortable. I wore it in my house, and I didn’t overheat. There’s something about the material. The lining does not shed or flatten. It’s thick and spongey like real shearling. It doesn’t really attract lint or hair or anything either. I just can’t say enough about this." —Huesitos
Get it from Amazon for $65.99 (available in sizes S–XL and eight colors).
9. A striped turtleneck with a super cute button detailing on the shoulders for an added detail that really makes this sweater shine. Wear this with jeans for a casual yet chic look every minimalist (and maximalist, alike) will approve of.
Promising review: "This sweater is very comfortable and easy to pair with different options. It has four buttons on the left shoulder that add to a dressy look. It can be worn with jeans and a pair of boots or with dress pants. It is warm on a cold day and still light enough so that it isn't too bulky. Then it is either as expected or slightly big. The sweater is easy to care for and still looks great after a couple of washings! I would buy this sweater in other colors." —Suzan Hornbeck
Get it from Amazon for $41.99 (available in sizes S–XL and in 13 colors).
10. Sam Edelman loafers you can ~slide~ right on no matter whether you're wearing dress pants, jeans, or even a dress.
Promising review: These shoes are a favorite! I ordered the black after having a beet red color for about a year and a half. They were comfortable right out of the box, the leather is supple, and they look high quality. I am very happy with my purchase. These are often compared to the Brixton loafer from a high-end fashion brand." —Christine
Get them from Amazon for $150 (available in sizes 4–13, wide, and 20+ colors).
11. A button-up tie-waist chiffon dress to *add a little bit of spice* to your wardrobe and give you a standout style you can wear through every season (as long as you add tights and boots once it gets colder).
Promising review: "I purchased this dress to wear for my birthday and love it so much I purchased another pattern! I love that you have the option to cinch the waist as much as you’d like. It is longer in the front and back and does come a little shorter on the sides, but I don’t mind that. The chest area buttons up, so it allows you to wear as high or low as you like. I'm so happy with my purchase!!" —GlamGirl
Get it from Amazon for $37.99 (available in sizes XS–XXL and in 15 patterns).
12. A vegan leather blazer giving me big "I am CEO of this company" energy, even if you aren't quite CEO...yet. When you slip this double-breasted long blazer on, you'll feel confident enough to take on whatever the day throws at you.
Wildfang is a woman-owned-and-run brand founded in 2013 on the belief that people could (and should) wear whatever they want and be whoever they want. In 2018 alone, the company raised over $400K for reproductive, immigrant, and women's/human rights charities.
Promising review: "This blazer is everything! I haven't felt as comfortable in my skin in years (maybe ever?) as I did when I wore this for the first time. Best purchase I've ever made." —Caro B.
Get it from Wildfang for $188 (available in sizes XS–XXL and in five colors).
13. A cinched-waist button-down blouse dress that effortlessly says, "Oh this old thing? I just threw this on as I left my $4 million mansion this morning."
Promising review: "I find it very difficult to order clothing on Amazon, they are usually way off on sizing. Material is great, soft, and the fit is perfect to wear with a nice pair of boots, etc. I sized up and it was a good fit." —Donna Jarock
Get it from Amazon for $32.99 (available in sizes S–XXL and in 15 colors and styles).
14. A vintage-inspired midi silk skirt with cinching at the waist you can wear with a white t-shirt for a more casual style. Then you can simply swap the top for a nice blouse for fancy occasions. We love a skirt that can do both.
Get it from Lilysilk for $165 (available in sizes 2-16 and in two colors).
15. A double-breasted blazer designed with gold buttons for a ~pop~ of elegance that can turn any outfit fancier — even a white tee and cutoff shorts.
Reviewers do say that it runs a bit small!
Promising review: "This jacket is very cute and different. I wore it with jeans and tennis shoes and a white T-shirt. You can also dress it up though. The gold buttons are my favorite!" —JonS
Get it from Amazon for $88 (available in sizes XS–3XL and in two colors).
16. A wow-worthy flocked organza-sleeve top sure to get you compliment after compliment, so it's worth stepping out of your comfort zone for, as one reviewer did.
Promising review: "If you’re on the fence about this top, do yourself a favor and put it in your cart and buy it! Compliments will be headed your way for sure! I work at a bridal salon and pair this top with the crop faux leather pants and get so many compliments. It was out of my comfort zone, but I’m glad I took the risk!" —Sara T.
Get it from Eloquii for $69.95 (available in sizes 14-28).
17. Polarized vintage-inspired sunglasses here to be the finishing touch to any outfit because you'll look (and feel) about 10 times cooler as soon as you put them on.
Promising review: "OBSESSED!!!! They’re sooo cute ! They look super high end and expensive. They’re very light weight and fashionable. I love everything about them. They came in the cutest box, came with a drawstring bag to hold them in and a lens cloth! Love love love!" —Tianna
Get it from Amazon for $25 (available in five colors and two sets).
18. A pair of wavy-print straight leg trousers guaranteed to be the star of your outfit. Plus, it will be so simple to get dressed because all you'll need to do is grab these pants, any white top, your funkiest shoes — and you'll be G2G.
Get them from Cider for $32 (available in sizes XS–2XL).
19. A silky V-neck slip dress you'll be reaching for all the time because it's the perfect fancy base layer to add your favorite accessories to. Faux-leather jacket? Yep! Chic fedora? Double check!
Promising review: "This dress looks silky and high quality and can pair well with any jacket. It still looks great after machine wash and machine dry." —Kaiyuan Yang
Get it from Amazon for $49.90 (available in sizes XXS–5X and in 18 colors and patterns).
20. A shoulder bag about to become your new it-bag because it's in a nice neutral color that will pull your outfit together, yet the style is so unique that it truly makes a statement.
JW Pei is an Asian family–owned brand with minimalist accessory designs that are made with sustainable vegan materials.
And I would know because this has been my go-to bag for the last month. When I saw this style showing up everywhere on Instagram (and in my fellow BuzzFeed Shopping team posts), I knew I wanted to get my hands on it. The style really is unique and fun, yet still feels like it's a classic. I wasn't sure about the size, but it's big enough to fit my phone, small wallet, hand sanitizer, lipstick, and a mask. (which is about everything I need to carry around right now). The shoulder strap is a little small if I put it all the way up on my shoulder, but I actually prefer to hold it by my hand or the crook of my arm. And did I mention that this is amazing for the price?!? I mean can you believe that it's less than $100??? Because I truly cannot. It's such good quality, and I know I'll be using it for a long long time.
Get it from JW Pei for $89 (also available in 21 other colors).
21. A stretchy mid-length pencil skirt reviewers confirm is as comfortable as wearing leggings but looks so much nicer. And with a nice selection of colors to choose from, you may want to grab a couple so you can wear them at least twice a week.
Promising review: "Love, love, love this skirt!! I would normally wear a medium, but after reading some reviews about how small it ran, I ordered one size up. When I took it out of the bag today and looked at the waist, it looked so small I thought, NO WAY! But, the fabric is so soft and has so much give that it was fine. In minutes, I felt like I was walking around in my PJs! Yes, it’s THAT comfortable! From the side the fit is very close; it looks like I’m wearing leggings. If you think this would feel or look too tight for you, I would try two sizes up rather than one, although the thigh and leg area is the part of the skirt that fits the closest. But, I’m fine with it, and my husband said I look 'great' in it — sleek and well-dressed but not too sexy which was what I was going for since I’ll be wearing it to church! Came back online just now to order more in different colors but decided to write this review first!" —Lisa S.
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and in 22 colors).
22. Cut-out mules designed to be a more sophisticated take on a flat that doesn't let the comfort ~slide~.

24. A faux suede trench coat made with a detachable faux fur collar meaning you can switch up your look and take it to the next level when you want to look (and feel) your most bougie.
Promising review: "I work in a professional environment and wear dresses and skirts every day. I got the long black fur jacket, and it's STUNNING! This was a treat to myself, and I am going to order two more in different colors! It's super warm and elegant. I am very happy." —Cole
Get it from Amazon for $75.99 (available in sizes S–XXL and six colors).
25. A pair of beautiful pearl brass earrings ready to add some dimension and glamour to any outfit without ever overpowering it. Reviewers confirm that these earrings are not super heavy and look even better in person.

Get them from Aleishla Lopez on Etsy for $65+ (available in three materials).
26. A fuzzy three-piece loungewear set for the days when the only option is to be comfortable but you don't want to put on your ratty old sweatshirt again. You'll basically be lounging like a Kardashian in this set.
Promising review: "I love this outfit. This has become my go to when I don’t feel like getting 'dressed' when laying around the house, but still want to feel somewhat put together and not look frumpy. It’s super soft, warm, but not too warm. It’s really cute." —Danielle Weiss
Get the three-piece set from Amazon for $33.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and in 22 colors and styles).
27. A V-neck button-down swing dress with the power to make you feel like you run the world, because not only is it super cute and comfortable, but it also has pockets (!!!), which makes this dress a true 10/10.
Promising review: "I took a chance on ordering this dress. I am so glad I did because I absolutely love it. The fabric is soft but not see-through and has some stretch to it. The pockets are fantastic! I wore it with some leggings and sneakers. It's a great comfortable dress I’ll wear again and again." —Ashley Gilbert
Get it from Amazon for $26.95+ (available in sizes 14-26 and in 25 colors, prints, and sleeve-lengths)

Get it from Grey Bandit for $72 (available in sizes S–L).

Joey Baby NYC is an AAPI woman-owned small business hand-making trendy jewelry from New York.
BuzzFeed Shopping writer Ali Faccenda says: "I have several pieces from the brand and love every single one. They are all such amazing quality and add something fresh to a ton of my basic tops.

Get it from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in sizes XS–3XL and in 31 colors).
31. Greats sneakers you really can't go wrong with, because they'll go with everything in your closet and live up to their name at the same time.
I should know because the first time I wore these shoes, I walked 16,000 steps in them. Yep, you read that correctly, 16,000 steps and not a single blister and no foot pain at the end of the day. Soon after that day, these shoes became my new go-tos. They have a classic look to them and really do go with everything. I even took them on vacation to Paris in January, and I wore them almost every day. They didn't look like tourist shoes at all, and I never had any pain while wearing them. The price point is a bit steep on them, but for the quality, I really do think they are worth it.
Promising review: "This is my second pair of Greats and like the first pair, I get compliments them all the time, great quality, comfortable. I love that they take a few days to 'break in' the leather, and even the break-in days aren't painful, the leather is just stiffer. Plus, they're fresh white kicks, so they go with everything!" —Claudia D.
Get them from Greats for $179 (available in sizes 6–10 and in two colors).
32. A one-shoulder cut-out long-sleeved shirt to make your style a ~cut~ above the rest as the shoulder detailing really takes this top up a ~notch~. The simple yet eye-catching style will make you feel so posh no matter what pants you throw on with it.
