1. A crewneck that'll help you express your entire mood — a skeleton sippin' on some coffee. It's just as relatable as it is comfortable!
Promising review: "I bought this shirt oversized. But I was surprised at how soft this crew neck was! Graphic has held up after many washes." —Jillydukez
Get it from Amazon for $31.99 (available in unisex sizes S–2XL and five colors).
2. A cropped black tank with an open back you can totally wear to the horror film trivia night your friends have all been *begging* you to come to (because your knowledge of all-things-scary will be the key to winning).
Get it from American Eagle for $14.96 (available in sizes 2XS–2XL and two colors).
3. A knit dress with a subtle Peter Pan collar for anyone who's always wanted to try out the token style but has been too shy to fully embrace contrasting colors — this beauty is calling your name.
Get it from our Goodful shop for $123.50 (available in sizes XS–XL).
4. A versatile oversized sweater vest that'll become your go-to layering piece — it works all on its own, over a collared long sleeve top, or even over a dress. It's fabulous with a capital F.
Promising review: "Gorgeous. Very good quality material feels like a much more expensive sweater. It is longer but I bought it to tuck with trousers for work...The sides do not show your bra; the neckline is work-appropriate. " —Shelly Kuntz
Get it from Amazon for $31.99 (available in sizes S–2XL and in 12 colors/patterns).
5. Over-the-knee boots made with a stretchy fabric you'll adore because of how non-constricting they are. They're also both sexy and comfortable — these boots are what dreams are made of!
Promising review: “Freaking love these! Purchased for a Vegas trip. And didn’t wear them in before I went. Risky, right? Like never bring a new pair of shoes for a night out. But oh my gosh. They fit amazing in the shoe! And were legit comfortable until 4 a.m. when I got back to my hotel room. Only con: they do slide down a little bit, but nothing terrible, just to the top of my knee if walking. Standing and just moving they stayed up all the way. Just buy the boots!” —Danielle
Get them from Amazon for $37.72+ (available in sizes 5–11 and four colors).
6. A trendy strapless mesh bustier you can wear any time — even if you're *not* part of the Bridgerton cast. It comes in *tons* of colors, but you and I both know you're going to like it best in black.
Promising review: "I purchased this corset after watching a TikTok video of another mid-sized girl talking about how great it is. It did not disappoint! It fits nicely. I got lots of compliments on it! Someone else pointed out to me that the fabric looks expensive and just like another bustier listed on PrettyLittleThings for over twice the price." —Elizabeth
Get it from Amazon for $31.99+ (available in sizes 00–20 and 20 colors).
7. A black pleated skirt that will absolutely become a fast favorite of your wardrobe. Reviewers love it for its high waist and perfect length, but also because it *stays* true to its color even after being washed.
Promising review: "This skirt is a perfect wardrobe staple! The waist has a nice stretch to it. The length hits at just below the knee. I get a million compliments on this skirt any time I wear it. I’ve had it for a year and a half — the color is still nice and black. I wash and dry it like normal, and it’s always looked great!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $27.99 (available in sizes XS–2XL and 44 colors and lengths).
8. A lace layering turtleneck covered in gorgeous florals you can count on to add some pizzazz to your spookiest fall outings.
Promising review: "Bought this to go with a faux white leather skirt. It’s perfect and lightweight. The neck isn’t too tight and the lace pattern is so pretty and not scratchy which can be a problem with some lace. Can’t wait to wear with boots this fall." —SaintCharlesgirl
Get it from Anthropologie for $68 (available in sizes 2XS–2XL, 1X–3X, standard, petite, and plus, and three colors).
9. Sparkly Betsey Johnson ankle boots to add some ~razzle dazzle~ to your wardrobe and ensure when you head to a friend's and you all remove your shoes that yours definitely won't get lost in a sea of black booties.
Promising review: “I bought these for an Elton John concert and received so many compliments on them throughout the evening! The rhinestones are absolutely stunning and even though I don't wear heels often I was able to comfortably wear these for several hours. However, I would highly recommend going up a half size! I read several other reviews recommending this and am glad I did or else they probably would not have fit. I'd recommend going a half size up from your regular shoe size, but otherwise these boots are perfection!” —Amazon Customer
Get them from Amazon for $114.45+ (available in sizes 5–11 and 15 colors)
10. A black organza dress that'll leave everyone thinking "Wednesday Addams, who?!" once they see you strutting your stuff in it. Don't forget to snag a plain black slip to wear underneath!
Promising review: "I use this with a simple silk undergarment of the same color...From being a beach coverup for a casual and refreshing dress for the hotter days. Size up if you have bigger arms or large breasts as it doesn’t have any stretch to it at all." —Joan Espinoza-Gonzalez
Get it from Amazon for $25.99 (available in sizes XS–3XL and three styles).
11. A cropped tank you absolutely need in black — no ifs, ands, or buts, about it! It's a style basic everyone should have on hand, but *better* because it won't require you to wear a bra (the biggest of wins).
I wore this in Deep Blue to see Taylor Swift's Eras Tour, and anyone who is *in the know* will understand just how much thought goes into choosing an outfit for that occasion. The material felt almost bathing suit–like and was super stretchy (excellent for anyone who, like myself, is rather busty). I liked that I was able to wear a bralette with it (but didn't have to if I didn't want to) and that it wasn't see through at all.
Promising reviews: "This top is perfect for a lot of outfits and occasions. The material is butter soft, double lined, stretchy, and fits just right. I don’t wear a bra with it but you can’t see through it at all. It is so comfortable as well. It comes just right above my belly button in terms of length...Definitely recommend for everyday wear or comfy times." —Katherine
Get it from Amazon for $23.99 (available in sizes S–2XL and 23 colors).

12. An oversized corduroy button-down shirt that screams "fall is here and it's fabulous!"
13. Doc Martens, because you can't go wrong with a tried-and-true classic.
Promising review: "These boots are BEAUTIFUL. Exactly as I remembered from my pair I owned in high school. They fit tight on first wear, especially where the tongue meets the boot (the seam). I wore wet wool socks for three hours in them to soften 'em up and form them to my feet. I wore them with regular socks last night for five hours and they fit AWESOME already. No discomfort at all. Super fast and easy to break in when it comes to a leather boot. My Fryes took months to break in and quite honestly, they still aren't nearly as comfortable at these. I'd feel confident wearing these all day or to walk around in a lot. LOVE LOVE THEM." —Sjeasley
Get them from Amazon for $64.99+ (available in sizes 6–11 and 23 styles).

14. A witty crewneck sweatshirt that'll guarantee you'll have a ~ghoul~ time whenever you wear it.
My colleague Mallory Mower and I both took one look at this sweatshirt and knew we had to have it. It's super soft and cozy. It might just become your go-to cold weather accessory.
Femfetti is a small business run by a squad of incredibly creative women in Columbus, Ohio. They've been making apparel since 2013 — every design features hand-drawn illustrations and lettering!
Get it from Femfetti on Etsy for $30+ (available in unisex sizes S–5XL).
15. A fuzzy V-neck popcorn sweater you'll find yourself as infatuated with as the smell of the freshly popped snack.
Promising review: "This is my favorite new sweater! The quality is amazing! It's super soft and the color is a pretty taupe that goes well with everything. It's definitely oversized, so order your normal size. I love the detail on the sleeves and the length is great. I'm tempted to buy the other colors now!" —Laura Chaffee
Get it from Amazon for $40.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and 15 colors).
16. A puffer vest that'll make you feel like you're receiving the biggest, coziest hug while leaving you looking like a fashionista at the same time.
Reviewers are saying to size down for a cropped look.
Promising review: "I am absolutely OBSESSED with this puffer vest. It is lightweight and not overbearing, but at the same time, it keeps me warm and feels so comfy. I took the advice of other reviewers and ordered an extra small even though I'm usually a small, and I'm so glad that I did. I love the cropped look that the smaller size gives me. I will certainly be buying this in other colors." —Lydia Spencer
Get it from Amazon for $36.97 (available in sizes XS–2X and 20 colors).
17. Soda platform sneakers that'll take your athleisure look to new heights — literally. They feature cushioning and a rubber sole that'll support you throughout all of the errands on your weekend to-do list.
Promising review: "I've never been much of a sneaker person except for when working out, but I've seen this style all over social media and I really liked them. I waited months before finally ordering these and now I'm kicking myself for doing so! They are not gym shoes, but rather trendy athleisure shoes, and I'm all about comfy and cute." —Kerbear74
Get them from Amazon for $39.95+ (available in sizes 5.5–11 and in 15 colors).

18. An oversized knit cardigan — ideal if you're someone who *waffles* between being too hot and too cold, and loves nothing more than a go-to layering option.
Promising review: "I have these cardigans in three different colors, need I say more? They are thick and heavy, which I like because I bought them for winter, but since it’s cotton, I feel like they will be comfortable in spring and fall too. They keep their shape and quality after washing. For sizing comparison, I have them in S, and I usually wear US S in tops." —Anonimous
Get it from Amazon for $42.99+ (available in sizes S–3XL and 27 colors).
19. An oversize linen jumpsuit you'll absolutely treasure — wear it to the farmers market, to scrub your floors, or grab coffee with a friend. We love a versatile optionnnnn!
Promising review: "These are too perfect for words. I'll be buying the other colors as soon as possible! They are super comfortable and extremely versatile. They're great for yard work, casual events, cute swimsuit coverup, and more. These are going to get so much wear!" —Cara
Get it from Amazon for $26.99+ (available in sizes S–4X and in nine colors).
20. Spanx faux-leather leggings you can wear on days you want to appear more ~edgy~ but still feel like you're lounging in comfy clothes.
I splurged on these two years ago. I don't know why I waited so long! They're super soft on the inside, edgy on the outside, and just freakin' fabulous. If I venture to any family gatherings this holiday season you better believe you'll find me in these bad boys. I love pairing them with an oversized sweater for a look that's stylish but still cozy.
Get them from Nordstrom, Spanx, or Amazon for $98+ (available in sizes XS–3X).
21. Lace-up ankle booties your squad will be begging you to tell them where you picked 'em up from when you wear them.
Promising review: "These shoes are good quality for a very cheap price. I get lots of compliments on them. They're great for someone like me who never wears heels because these are easy to walk and balance in, and it will be a long time before your feet start to hurt. I would definitely buy again if I needed to." —Joy
Get them from Amazon for $32.94+ (available in sizes 5–10 and 14 styles).
22. A lightweight maxi skirt starring a perfectly stretchy waistband you won't be able to stop yourself from ordering — it'll look SO cute paired with your spookiest graphic tee this fall.
After putting this skirt in tons of posts, I finally caved and ordered one for myself. Reviewers love this skirt and for a reason — it really does live up to the hype! I paired it with a high-neck tank, a denim jacket, and sneakers and felt super cute when wearing it to my best friend's baby shower. I love that there aren't any buttons or drawstrings, you just pull this baby on and feel like royalty. The pleats are adorable, the ruched waist is fun, AND it has pockets!!! I'm literally going to place an order for another one as soon as I can decide between the green and the pink. Screw it, maybe I'll just get both.
Get it from Amazon for $33.89+ (available in sizes S–2XL and 19 colors).
23. A splurge-worthy leather jacket you can absolutely consider an investment since you'll be layering it over all of your fall favorites for years to come.
Promising review: "Literally the most expensive thing I own. If my house catches on fire, I'm grabbing this jacket and then my boyfriend. I searched for several months for the perfect moto jacket, and honestly, even the ones in the $200–$300 range just didn't fit right (and I thought THAT was too pricey!) but this one is perfect. I agonized over this purchase. ultimately convinced myself to buy it because it's a forever piece." —GirlinAustin
Get it from Madewell for $525 (available in sizes 2XS–2XL and four styles).
24. Converse Chuck Taylor All Stars that'll look lovely with your daily uniform of leggings and a band T-shirt. What? That can't possibly be just me? You won't regret buying a fresh pair of these timeless shoes.
I mean, they're Converse! I've had quite a few of these over the years and they remain some of my favorite sneakers. I covered my original black pair in Taylor Swift lyrics ("Picture to Burn" was an ANTHEM for me in 2009, OK!) and have worn in many other pairs since. They're comfortable, look cute with jeans and dresses alike, and IMO are the perfect casual sneaker.
Promising review: "I LOVE Chucks. I have about 8 or 9 pairs. They are my go-to shoe. I wear them with everything., skirts, dresses, jeans...... I like them because they hold up well and are comfy right out of the box. I also have so knock offs and the are so uncomfortable with thin soles or they are HOT and not in a good way (Sweaty feet). Chucks have those little air holes in the side and believe me it makes a big difference. On my feet all day and when I wear my Chucks...no sore feet (or smelly feet)!" —Whovian
Get them from Amazon for $57+ (available in men's sizes 4–11, women's sizes 5.5–13, and 24 styles).

25. A spooktacular graphic tee for anyone who is soothed by true crime podcasts — y'all are one of a kind. This specific shirt will also let you happily pay tribute to that inevitable moment when you can't help but shout "the husband did it!"
I have this tee and love it despite being a big ol' scaredy cat. I love *~spooky season~* and, admittedly, teasing my husband, so this shirt was a no-brainer. I have an array of other cool items from this Murder Apparel, a small business that sells, obviously, all kinds of fun true crime/spooky–inspired clothing.
Promising review: "I've worn it once and got several compliments. I love this shirt!!" —Arielle Ringeisen
Get it from Amazon for $30 or Murder Apparel for $27.99 (available in sizes S–3XL).
26. A chic sweater starring an asymmetrical hem, long enough to cover your booty so you can wear your leggings without hearing "those are NOT pants, I can see your whole butt!"
Promising review: "Ordered a small in the white version of this sweater and holy cow! I intend to buy this in black as well, so impressed. This sweater is incredibly soft and stretchy and comfortable. It does run slightly large in my opinion, however, I wouldn't order a size down. This has been washed several times since I ordered it and I am impressed with how it's held up. 10/10 would recommend to a friend! Great value for the money spent." —Elizabeth

27. A faux shearling moto jacket with a look that'll stand the test of time — throw it on over a tee and jeans you've already got in your closet and *boom* you've got a new go-to outfit!
Promising review: "Really an excellent steal! Just like the one from Zara but more comfortable, half the price and warmer. Wore it a few times and already got a dozen compliments." —Aleksandra Teichman
Get it from Amazon for $69.99 (available in sizes S–XL and 10 colors).
28. Slip-on Chelsea boots for anyone whose pair of the classic shoes could use an upgrade after trudging around in them last winter — go on, treat yourself.
Promising review: "I have this in black already, so I knew what I was expecting when I ordered the brown. The quality is as expected for the price. Still a good boot quality, very durable, and breaks in nice. May be stiff at first, but after a couple of wears, you'll adjust to it quickly." —Xinh Nguyen
Get it from Amazon for $75.61+ (available in sizes 5–11 and six styles).

P.S. reviewers suggest sizing up!
Promising review: "These pants as so comfortable and flowy! I stepped outside of my usual skinny-jean outfit to try this style — and I never want to take them off! They are great casual pants for work, and can be dressed up for the evening with a fancy shirt and heels. They are as comfortable as pajamas, without looking like it." —Nash
Get it from Amazon for $33.99+ (available in sizes XS–2XL, 1X–2X and 32 styles).
30. A pair of splurge-worthy UGG's fluffy "Oh Yeah" slippers because you might as well treat your feet to a life of luxury.
My sister's best friend treated herself to these babies and she loves 'em! She said, "I came home for what I thought was a long weekend, but it quickly turned into six weeks. I had to basically buy a whole new wardrobe and these were definitely the best purchase." She convinced me...I snagged them in an Elle Woods–approved pink style and LOVE them. They're just as soft and fluffy as you'd imagine. I've been wearing them as my WFH shoes :).
Promising review: "They are so fluffy and cute. They provide a lot more support than they look. They're as squishy as typical bed slippers, they have some support and firmness, so you could probably wear these with an actual outfit if you wanted to. They don't seem to run bigger or smaller for me - I get the same size I always get." —X
Get them from Amazon for $49.97 (available in sizes 5–11 and 28 styles).
31. A polka dot organza-sleeve body suit that'll elevate your standard go-to style of a black tank tucked into jeans.
Promising review: "I was surprised at how great this looks and feels! The lace isn’t itchy at all, the bodysuit is super soft and I love that it has three snaps across, it makes it so I don’t end up with a wedgie! Love it! Getting white next. 😍" —Colleen
Get it from Amazon for $28.99 (available in sizes XS–3XL and 39 colors/styles).
32. A pair of TikTok-viral cargo pants featuring a stylish oversized fit and tons of pockets for you to store Halloween candy in...priorities, amiright?
Check out a TikTok of the cargo pants.
Promising review: "I saw these on TikTok, and I LOVE them. They fit so well. I'm 5'4" and 130 pounds, and I got a size 29, and they fit perfect. Loose, but not too loose, and extremely comfy. They come down just below the ankle, so they'd pair perfect with a pair of Jordans or Dunks. Also comes with an adjustable tie on the waist to fit as you need, same around the ankle." —annabella Gambone
Get them from Amazon for $39.99 (available in men's sizes 27–44 and 44 colors).
33. A pretty puff-sleeve mini dress that'll make you feel like a goth princess at any given time. Imagine how dazzling it'll look paired with your favorite cowgirl boots? Chef's kiss 💋.
Promising review: "It’s super cute, comfortable, and I received a ton of compliments on it. I ordered a medium but could have gone with a small. Ordering another color, because I liked it so much." —Amber Nelson

Get it from Coco De Chom for $74.95 (available in one-size).
35. Faux-leather shorts so when a spontaneously too-hot fall day arrives, you'll be ready. But when a beloved spooky chill returns to the air, pair 'em with tights to keep the party going.
BuzzFeed editor Jenae Sitzes has these babies, "Hi, I have these and can't recommend them more!! That's me on the right above — as you can see, I wore them as part of my Reputation-inspired outfit for the Taylor Swift Eras Tour, but I've worn them several other times, with and without tights, and absolutely love them. As a pear-shaped individual, I love that they comfortably cover my bottom while still hugging me at the waist thanks to the stretchy elastic there, aka no awful gapping. As other reviewers mention, these have a thickness to them that makes them feel high quality. In the summer, I do sweat in these a little at the waist, which is to be expected, but the wide-leg design helps keep everything else breezy. I can't wait to wear these in the fall and winter with thicker tights! Oh, and the pockets are nice and deep!"
Promising review: "I was so surprised when I received these shorts. They are such good quality. They have weight to them, making them feel expensive. I feel like I would buy these from Zara. Super cute and exactly what I was looking for!" —Jaimelee Calvello
Get it from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in sizes XS–XL and six colors).
36. Nisolo's Emma d'Orsay Oxfords — they were inspired by Emma Watson, so you know you'll just feel like magic while you're wearing them.
Promising review: "These shipped very quickly, and look so amazing! The quality is so good and they’re made well. My feet are wider than most, so ordering shoes online can be nerve-wracking. However, these fit perfectly and look very slim and professional. Can’t wait for the weather to cool down so I can wear them more often!" —Alexa S.
Get them from Nisolo for $170 (available in women's sizes 5–11 and four styles).
37. A silky satin midi skirt that'll make every day feel a bit more glamorous, even if the only thing you have planned is to head to the dentist to get a cavity filled.
Promising review: "Wow I honestly had low expectations, but love this skirt! It became a staple in my closet and I’m not one to wear colors or many prints. So silky and smooth, so comfy. Got so many compliments. The band doesn’t dig in and doesn’t look awkward. I can’t wait to get it in different colors." —Daria Z.
Get it from Amazon for $49.99+ (available in sizes 2XS—2XL, 1X–5X and 24 styles).

Promising review: "Honestly my jaw genuinely dropped when I put it on, it looks so beautiful (and I look beautiful in it???) and the seller was really helpful in answering questions. Shipping took a bit of time which is more than understandable. Very happy and will be ordering again very soon :)" —Keri Eileen Charlton

Get them from Madewell for $98+ (available in sizes 5–12 and seven styles).
41. And, of course, a skater dress with a Peter Pan collar to make you feel as devious as Wednesday Addams herself while looking equally as fabulous.
Promising review: "I have been wanting one of these dresses for YEARS. Whenever I saw them in malls or stores they’d be $$$ and never had my size, or be really form fitting. After reading about every single review on here as well as examining every review picture I decided to get the XL. It fits wonderfully! It’s a little loose still which is great because I’m not crazy on form fitting. I highly recommend for any spooky girls out there like me who are always in search of a cute dress to wear during fall and Halloween!" —Maureen
