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).

Promising review: "I love this poncho. Quality of material is good. Love the colors. I purchased this for a trip. I wanted something lightweight, not bulky but would keep me warm on cool nights. It also doubles as a blanket when I am watching TV. I machine wash it, put in the dryer, and it still looks good." —Damian Perez

I have this shirt in gray and green and it's fantastic! It's lightweight so you won't find yourself overheating if you're running around in it, but cozy enough that you'll also feel snug as a bug! I lived it in all last winter and can't wait to break it out for the fall. Definitely a piece worth adding into your loungewear wardrobe.

Promising review: "Honestly saw this on TikTok and contemplated getting it for a long time. I’m so glad I committed! It’s extremely comfortable. The padding is amazing so you don’t have to worry about a bra underneath at all. You can wear it with sweats or leggings to the gym or even dress it up for a night out. Considering more colors for sure!" —Kristyn Long

10. A flowy midi dress starring puff sleeves, a ruffled hemline, and a bow at the back that'll make you feel like running through a field of dandelions while singing "I want adventure in the greaaaaat wide somewheeeeeeere!" a la Belle from Beauty and the Beast.
Promising review: "This dress appears way more expensive than the listing. It reminded me of something you’d find in a boutique. I wore this dress for my bridal shower and it was so comfortable!

Get it from Amazon for $26.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and in 12 colors).
14. 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

Promising review: "I never write reviews, but these are easily the best jeans I have ever owned in my life and I had to share!!! They fit perfectly in every way to the point where I can't believe these aren't custom-made for me. They are incredibly comfortable without sacrificing the look of real jeans and the tummy panel is FANTASTIC. On top of all of that, these are more comfortable than my leggings. I'm in love with these pants and will be purchasing the rest of the colors to replace every other pair of jeans I own." —Anonymous

16. A chiffon blouse, because this elegant lil' number is likely as close as you're going to get to being a Bridgerton this fall. I respect the attempt and think you're gonna look divine in this top!
Promising review: "This is a really great item. It’s a very nice material, and the print is vibrant. It’s not very long so if you’re tall, make sure you’ll want to tuck it into something high waisted. The sleeves are just the tiiiiiniest bit short on me, but as I said, I’m super tall so I’m used to it. I definitely recommend this top!" —Jessica
Get it from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in sizes XS–2XL and 20 colors).

Get it from Amazon for $35.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and 15 colors).
18. High-waisted leggings, because structured pants are *not* welcome to join in on your lazy day plans. Sorry, not sorry.
Promising review: "If you’re on the fence about buying these leggings, DO IT. I bought a black pair (plus size) to see how they’d fit and let me tell you! I have wide hips, big thighs, and a large behind, and these leggings fit perfectly! Even better, THEY ARE NOT SEE-THROUGH when I bend over!! I’ve *never* found leggings that weren’t sheer when I bent over before! I bought eight more in different colors and they all are the same quality! I love them so much that over a year later I bought two more black pairs!! I recommend these leggings to everyone I hear talking about the difficulties of finding good leggings. I swear I wear these to work three times a week, at least. I love them!!" —hali howard

Promising reviews: "I get so many compliments whenever I wear this coat. It always ties my outfits together and makes me feel spruced up. The weight is really versatile, too! It was a godsend when I went to a convention in San Diego. I could wear it over my sleeveless dress in the air conditioning or outside walking by the water and feel very comfortable. I wore it over long sleeved shirts and sweaters with boots in the fall and winter and felt super cute. It's held up well and I couldn't be happier!" —Noneya
Get it from Amazon for $62.99 (available in sizes XS–XL and six styles).
21. A lightweight maxi skirt starring a perfectly stretchy waistband (s'cute) you won't be able to stop yourself from ordering in a variety of colors (take it from someone who actually owns it).
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).
22. Levi's overalls for anyone who wants to channel their inner Donna from Mamma Mia but make it *~autumn~*. This classic style is both practical and cute!
Promising review: "OK, I wore Levi's overalls in the late 1970s. I still have a pair I saved for the embroidering I did on them. These are just the same! Fabric is stonewashed denim, light blue, soft without feeling worn. Nice hardware. They are perfect!" —J. Sierra

24. A striped pullover to throw on when you're late but don't want your friends to tease you about it for the umpteenth time.
Promising review: "This sweater looks and feels great and is so soft and comfy! Quality is so good! I sized up for an oversized fit. This style runs true to size. I machine washed on the delicate cycle, tossed in the dryer for a few minutes, then hung to finish drying, and the sweater still looks and feels exactly the same. Win! And the colors are so perfect for fall." —annamaynard
Get it from Amazon for $23.98 (available in sizes S–XL and five styles).
25. 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).
26. An oversized knitted sweater vest to wear on its own or pair with a turtleneck for the ultimate addition to your fall wardrobe. Keep giving us fashionable-bookshop-owner-in-a-romance-novel viiiibes!
Promising review: "Love this! Well worth the price! I ordered a medium so that it wouldn’t be too oversized and look awkward. And it fits perfect!! I paired it with a white turtleneck underneath, but the options are limitless here. Was surprised at the quality of this item...it’s very soft and thick. Which wasn’t what I expected at all. My only real complaint is the price of the item. However, this item is very trendy, so I understand. Would definitely, and might, buy again very soon!" —Amazon Customer

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).

Shopping Editor Elizabeth Lilly owns this in green and here's what she has to say about it:
"I get compliments on this dress every time I wear it and people are always surprised when I tell them I snagged it from Amazon. I was mulling over a pricier, shorter, fluffier, i.e. less practical dress that's been haunting me on Instagram. But this helped satisfy that shopping craving."
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

These babies have been designed to feel like you're wearing nothing — does it get more comfortable than that?
Promising review: "These are so comfortable! So light and such good quality. They are extremely soft and stretchy and basically feels like I’m not wearing anything! The seam at the waist is a little tighter than I was expecting but it’s not uncomfortable. Not tight like compressive but I can still do a CrossFit workout in them and they stay on. I also just traveled 30 hours by plane in them and was so comfy the whole time! Love the FLOAT collection." —Antonia C.
Get it from Girlfriend Collective for $78 (available in sizes 2XS–6XL, two inseams, and three colors).

I have the Ellie Nap Dress in two styles (Navy Poplin and Botanical Garden Crepe) and absolutely adore them. I feel super comfortable in them and, honestly, like a princess! I get tons of compliments whenever I wear them (a little flattery never hurt anybody) and might just order another one for this summer.
Promising review: "The Ellie Nap Dress is perfection! After about a year of Instagram telling me I needed a Nap Dress, I finally took the leap after having an emergency appendectomy. The dress was so comfy for recovery... and just about everything else! I own about a dozen of them now (and counting...). I've worn my Ellies for napping (duh), to work basically every day, out for girls' night, around the town in NYC, on airplanes, on the beach in Aruba, etc. It's perfect for just about any occasion, and SO, SO comfortable!" —Michelle
Get it from Hill House Home for $150 (available in sizes 2XS–2XL and 15 styles).
