Unless otherwise specified, all sizes in this post are listed in women's.
1. A soft mini skirt that's basically fashion cordu-royalty — it rules no matter if you rock it with a graphic tee and sneakers or a sleek top and booties.
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Heather Braga has and loves this cutie! Here's what she has to say about it: "This skirt was there for me in my time of need! I had a broken foot, so when last-minute plans came up and I was in need of a cute outfit (that didn’t require trying to pull pants on over my cast) I took a chance on this lil’ number. And I’m so glad I did! It’s stretchy, soft, and made my butt look fabulous. Def ordering in another color.”
Get it from Amazon for $22.91+ (available in sizes S–XL and three colors).
2. The perfect sleeveless crop top you'll rock on its own come summer but as an essential layering piece year-round.
Beginning Boutique is a woman-owned Australian shop with a huge selection of trendy clothes!
Promising review: "I love this cute crop. It’s so comfortable to wear braless and still feels really supportive and teams well with a skirt or boyfriend jeans." —Karrie Ann F.
Get it from Beginning Boutique for $34.95 (available in sizes 0–12 and in more colors here).
3. Glam faux-leather leggings that could easily pass for a pricey pair and will make everything — from sweaters to tees to going-out tops — look about a zillion times more posh.
Some reviewers recommend sizing up! You can also check out our full roundup of the best faux leather leggings for more recs like this.
Promising review: "IN LOVE!!! They aren't cheap looking at all!!! I originally bought them for a cosplay, but ended up wearing them for fashion purposes and they're a hit!!!!!! Super comfy and stretchy around the waist!!!" —Rebecca J
Get them from Amazon for $20.99 (available in sizes S–XXL and four colors).
4. An effortlessly cool shirt jacket (aka a shacket), which, as the name suggests, can be styled like a shirt or a jacket. It's basically the spork of the fashion world. Versatility, people!
Promising review: "I originally bought a large because I wanted it to fit with a little room. I ended up replacing it with a medium because it is already a loose design. I absolutely love this jacket and I have already worn it a dozen times. That's rare because as a clothing-a-holic, I have so many others to choose from." —Renee
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and in 11 colors).
5. An absolutely iconic "Harvard — what, like it's hard?" sweatshirt that'll become your new favorite weekend wear and make everyone do a double-take in a sea of other people in college merch and leggings. The quote gives it ~a little something extra, dontcha think~?
It's from an Amarillo, Texas-based small biz that makes adorable tees and sweatshirts, with many of them focusing on '00s girl- and millennial-fave shows and movies!
Promising review: "Absolutely love this crewneck!!!! Quality is amazing!" —ZAMARA PARKER
Get it from Letters & Lucy on Etsy for $31.99+ (available in unisex sizes S–3X and in two colors). Also available on a tee here.
6. A comfy three-quarter-sleeve dress, which is way more than three-quarters awesome. You'll give it a 4/4, 10/10, or whatever you want to call it for versatility, style, and POCKETS!
7. A sleeveless, lightweight fleece jumpsuit that's perfect workout or Netflix binge attire, sure, but would also be darn cute with a moto jacket and sneakers or booties. In other words, not only will you never *want* to take it off, but you'll also never *have* to.
Reviewers recommend getting your usual size or sizing down if you're between sizes and/or want it more fitted.
Promising review: "I’m not so much into dresses except for around the house like pajamas, and sometimes I want an option that feels like a dress but allows me freer movement, and heck! Give me some pockets, too! This is absolutely perfect. You can spread your legs as much as you want, enjoy the roomy pockets, and the relaxed waist makes it feel like there’s nothing restricting you at all. This is the height of casual comfort, and it can be used around the house or for going out, and it doesn’t even look half bad when you wear the right accessories. I love it!" —Hedera Femme
Get it from Amazon for $15.41+ (available in sizes XS–6X and in 20 colors and prints).
8. A trendy oversized teddy bear coat because it's as cuddly and cute as its namesake, so you'll pop it over literally every outfit from now until the (real, not just one misleading weekend) arrival of warm weather.
Some reviewers recommend sizing up for a slouchy fit and more room to layer.
Promising review: "I was a little hesitant before purchasing as this was my first time ordering clothing from any retailer on Amazon but let me tell you I am sooooo happy that I did. This jacket is not only cute and trendy but it’s very warm and so soft! I kid you not — I wore this to a concert tonight in 30 degree weather and I feel so cozy. Would definitely buy again. I’m usually a small, I ordered a medium for a loose fit. Glad I did. Feels and looks great!" —A. Hunter
Get it from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in women's sizes S–3XL and 35 styles).
9. A simple, breathable white blouse that's a slightly elevated version of a plain tee. It's so comfy, you'll be looking for excuses to dress this lil' number up and down throughout the week.
BTW, we gave Torrid a shoutout in our picks for the best places to buy plus-size clothing!
Promising review: "I love all of Torrid’s tops like this, but the cap sleeve makes this one take the cake! The cap sleeve is just enough to make me comfortable and remain stylish and fun. Already ordered the green one! Please make this exact top in more colors, Torrid!" –olybg85
Get it from Torrid for $55.50 (available in sizes 10–30 three colors).
10. A slouchy pullover, because you know what they say about striped sweaters...the best time to wear 'em is allllllll the tiiiiiimeeee.
Promising review: "Best sweater I own. I get so many compliments on this sweater! I was super surprised when I opened the package to find that it’s extremely soft and not made of cheap material! This pairs great with leggings, jeans, colored jeans, seriously anything! I would definitely consider purchasing another color in the future!" —Aimee Echelberger
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in sizes S–XXL and in 30 designs).
11. A workout-friendly dress made from recycled plastic bottles (!!!) and complete with sports-bra-like compression and bike shorts with pockets underneath. Forget the gym — you'll be wearing this on every errand run from now till forever.

Promising review: "I absolutely love this dress. This is certainly going to be a staple piece in my wardrobe when it warms up. I love the cut of the dress as well, it’s not too short, but just short enough. The built in one-piece is great! The shorts are just long enough that I feel super comfortable." —Pilar B.
Get it from Girlfriend Collective for $88 (available in sizes XXS–6XL and four essential colors; limited edition colors vary).
12. A practically perfect pullover sweatshirt that'll make you forget the concept of "boyfriend sweatshirt" — you'll be ready to make a more serious commitment and full-on marry this baby.
Promising review: "Perfect! This is so comfy I don’t ever want to take it off! It is very oversized, but after I washed it, it’s actually so perfect and I’m glad I got the large. The color and quality are amazing. It feels like it’s already been broken in. If I had a boyfriend to steal sweatshirts from, I feel like this would be it. 😂" —beautypot ✨
Get it from Amazon for $16.40+ (available in unisex sizes S–3XL and in eight colors).

If you're looking for a pair to deem "the best black leggings," look no further!
Promising review: "Holy crap, these leggings are amazing. Without exaggeration, they are the most comfortable item of clothing I've ever put on my body. I'm 5'10" and I often find 'one size' to be too short, but these fit down to my ankle. The best part is, the top doesn't roll and they don't slide down. Keeping in mind I'm wearing them during winter, they also didn't make me sweat. I didn't want to take them off. I need to order a billion pairs, including a few to wear to bed." —Avery T
Get them from Amazon for $10.49+ (available in one size fits most for straight and plus-sizes and in three styles, including one with pockets, and 22 colors).
14. A super soft athleisure-inspired top that's a cute and casual basic, but that also has stitched details and a longer hemline that make it more interesting than a typical tee.
Reviewers say it fits true to size!
Promising review: "I absolutely love the way this fits me, and how soft the material is. I can easily dress this up or down and be comfy wearing it all day. The color is also stunning and there are a bunch of choices. This is going to be a go-to piece in my wardrobe." —Mandi S
Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in sizes 14-28 and in 24 colors).
15. A pair of high-rise dress pants with a tie waist versatile enough to be worn to work, date night, and anything in between, all while being majorly comfy.
Promising review: "These pants are amazing! I wear them to work and get a lot of compliments. It pairs well with a body suit. For reference, I am 5’5” and 133 lbs - medium fit me perfectly." –Amazon Customer
Get them from Amazon for $30.99+ (available in sizes S–XXL, 37 styles, and in multipacks).
16. Or some cool and loose jogger pants that are an upgrade from usual sweats but just as effortless. They'll make you wonder why you ever wasted time with jeans.
Not to worry - we've got you covered with more recommendations for comfy pants that *aren't* sweats!
Promising review: "I didn’t have super high expectations for these but I love them! The material is so soft and comfortable and the fit is true to size. Thin enough material that they’re not super hot, but also not see-through. The print looks just like the picture and I think they are nice enough to be worn out, not just around the house. Could be dressed up cute with a jean jacket and some heels. Definitely recommend for the price!" —Amazon Customer
Get them from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in sizes S–4XL and in 15 styles).
