Unless otherwise specified, all sizes in this post are listed in women's.
1. A beige trench you can throw on over anything and immediately look like an incognito celeb — especially if you throw sunglasses into the mix.
2. A casual shift dress that really gives you a blank slate to build off of. Pair it with your chunkiest lug-sole boots, wide-brim felt hat, croc-embossed faux-leather cross-body — you name it.
3. A tie-front cargo jumpsuit so stunning, you *will* be stopped by a streetwear Instagrammer on your otherwise boring run to Whole Foods.
4. A slouchy buckle sweater if your go-to fall fashion is oversized knits but you're looking for something with a twist.
5. Or a criss-cross backless sweater that's all business in the front but party in the back because you're never one to be boring.
6. A pair of ankle-length Uniqlo trousers with two-way stretch fabric (hello, rayon and spandex) that glides over curves just like your favorite pair of sweatpants.
7. And some extra-wide-leg darted palazzo pants that allow for ample airflow. It's basically like wearing a dress, but you don't have to worry about accidentally flashing anyone if a gust of wind catches you by surprise.
8. A faux-suede blazer sure to make you feel like an absolute boss even if the only reason you're wearing it outside is because your favorite hoodie is in the wash and you *need* a BEC stat.
Promising review: "Great jacket for the fall! Can dress it up or looks good with more casual shirts and jeans, too." —Maurice's Reviewer
Get it from Maurices for $44.90+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and 0X–4X).
9. A tie-waist, lantern-sleeve dress with a simple silhouette made more exciting by an adjustable tie. Slip on some platform sneakers or thigh-high suede boots and you're all done, bb!
10. A color-blocked cardigan dress (you can style alone or throw on over jeans) for those looking to exude serious main character energy with little added effort.
11. A pair of high-waisted super distressed jeans that go *perfectly* with crop tops, slinky tanks, open-front cardigans, and whatever else you're wearing in those two weird weeks when it's, like, hot but also cold?
12. Or a pair of corduroy pants with an elastic waist that gives you an excellent range of motion. You never know when you're gonna want to show off how well you can do the worm, after all.
13. A faux-leather jumper you can layer over your vast (and I mean vastttttttt) turtleneck collection.
14. An oversized plaid shacket that my family back in New Hampshire would really get a kick out of cause they've been wearing them for function, not fashion (and since before I was born), but here we are!
15. A delightful little puff-sleeved midi dress if you haven't worn denim in ohhhh — nearly three years?? — and you fully intend to keep it that way.
16. An embroidered windbreaker that says "I'm an adult who understands practical outerwear but I also don't take myself too seriously 🐸. "
17. A simple V-neck blouse with a rounded hemline and chic, crinkled fabric reviewers say does not wrinkle because if all my fave tops have one thing in common, it's definitely that.
18. A solid faux-leather skirt that basically pairs with any old top in your closet. A chunky knit? ✔️ A sheer blouse? ✔️ A crisp white tee? ✔️ ✔️ That way, you can compensate up top if the temperatures soar or fall.
Get it from Forever 21 for $9.99 (originally $19.99; available in sizes 0X–3X and in three colors).
19. And a pair of fleece-lined faux leather leggings so incredibly soft and warm, you just won't believe it. If you've been eyeing a pair from Spanx but don't have $100 to shell out, they're a great dupe!
Promising review: "I purchased these faux-leather leggings during a late-night Amazon shopping spree. They don't look faux at all, are well-made, and I receive compliments on them every time I wear them. They are also extremely comfortable and fit like a second skin. They are super warm so I probably would not wear in warmer weather but are perfect for the fall and winter. They shape well and stay put! There is no rolling or slipping down with these babies. Put them on and they are going to stay where you put them. I love them!" —Kelly C. Albanese
Get them from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in sizes XS–4X Regular and Tall and in four styles).
FYI, if you have Amazon Prime, you can give this a spin before you buy it!
20. A silky satin midi skirt with a silhouette that says "chic" and an elastic waistband that says "I'll give your most comfortable sweats a go."
21. Or a rib-knit skirt you can wear at your natural waist or hike up for a shorter silhouette. It's like getting two skirts in one!
22. A high-neck chiffon blouse that comes in such a variety of vibrant prints, no one will even be able to detect you own more than one because if you're anything like me, you buy your fave pieces in every color/design available.
23. A casual blazer with a classic collar and lapel you can layer over a button up for an interview or over a band tee for the photo shoot you scheduled with your BFF, 'cause you need new pics for LinkedIn and your dating profile.
24. A midi smock dress in a trusty floral print that won't soon go out of style — which is fantastic, considering the piece will last you many fall seasons to come.
25. A casual raglan top finished with lace sleeves that allow for ample airflow if that's something your pits could use no matter what the weather is doing.
26. A smocked flare dress with a tiered skirt that'll have you twirling in three...two...one...yup, there ya go!
27. A ruffled chiffon blouse that works a high neck, dramatic lantern sleeves, and a bit of see-through action. Wear it with a nude bra if you're all about the peek-a-boo effect and if not, just slip a cami on underneath!
28. A pair of wide-leg Universal Standard ponte pants with an elastic waist and a two-tone side stripe that elevates them to boardroom-ready bottoms.
29. A pullover puff-sleeve sweater you can pair with jeans, wide-leg pants, or a midi skirt depending on the temperature and your mood.
30. A textured bodysuit ready to play supporting actor to any particularly daring bottoms you've got in mind.
J Lux Label is a woman-owned small business based in LA.
Get it from J Lux Label for $39.60 (originally $66; available in sizes S–L and in two colors (you can sign up to be notified when black is back in stock)).
31. A long-sleeve boho design outfitted with balloon sleeves and a faux-wrap design that gives you the look you're after without having to babysit your boobs all night.
32. A tie-front jumper that comes in 11 different colors so you can wear one every day of the week and no one will be the wiser.
33. A high-waisted midi skirt with a leg slit you can pop your thigh out of for a lil' sun (or tuck it away under tights when it's chilly).
34. 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
Get it from Amazon for $34.97+ (available in sizes XS–XL and 1X–3X and in 11 washes).
FYI, if you have Amazon Prime, you can give this a spin before you buy it!
35. And a pair of two-tone cropped pants for days when you can't decide what color you want to wear. The important thing is you're set on an elastic waist and these babies deliver.
When the weather app says high of 80 and low of 60 so you throw on some random layers and hope for the best:
