Ponte leggings were the closest thing to pants I owned for a long time and you can totally get away with making people think these are trousers. Their thicker, more durable knit makes them a good basic to have, and they're sort of a dressier step up from a legging that’s perfect with tunics.

These versatile staples are must-haves for any wardrobe, but especially function as cornerstones during transitional seasons.

This draping, lightweight tunic is perfect for layering over or under and would look killer with shorts, leggings, denim, or under a blazer for work.

Short Sleeve Crepe Tunic, $104, heygorgeous.com

Add a perfect, subtle layer with a collared shirt when you need just a little something else without throwing on a huge coat or a thick sweater. Go short or long-sleeved, go tunic or cropped length, and choose from pretty much every imaginable color for a look that works with what you have and your own style.

Top bodycon dresses with a breezy, long button-down or slip one underneath a sleeveless dress to give it a jumper-like look. Tuck one in and throw a light crepe sweater over top for a sophisticated look. If it gets warm, you can always knot a button-down over your sun dress or crop top.

Classic Plaid Shirt, $23, forever21.com

Light and breezy, but still office appropriate, this scallop collared blouse is the perfect feminine work wear piece that you can rock with a pencil skirt for a meeting or to brunch on the weekend.

Classy Collector Top, $35, modcloth.com

A pencil skirt is one of those essentials that likely finds its way into most babe’s wardrobes over time and it’s so understandable why: It’s a surprisingly versatile piece of clothing. I shied away from owning one for years because of my size and because I didn’t fancy my style to be the type that worked warranted buttoned-up, classic office-ready basics or that gave off pinup-eque vintagey vibes.A jersey or cotton pencil skirt is perfect with oversized athleisure pieces, though, like a unisex crew neck sweatshirt or windbreaker in the evening, or with a draping tank top tucked in during the day. Come fall, you can pair them with turtlenecks or chunky sweaters for practical warmth and layers.

Plus, you can pretend you’re Kim K.

Long duster sweaters and their more sophisticated, grown up cousins are the perfect transitional season items. I don’t think there’s any fall outfit that I love more than a longer coat, shorts, tights, and a perfectly fitted sweater. Pile on the layers or just add one over an otherwise summery ensemble to add warmth, texture, and cover those thighs on chillier mornings. A belted duster sweater over a romper is also a perfect weekend outfit that’s cozy and chic at the same time.

Kimono Sleeve Coat, $154, asos.com

This woven duster is simple, but stylish. With its wrap style waist tie and cinched waist, it’s easy to wear open or to tie it closed for extra warmth and waist definition (if that’s your thing). Throw it on over a romper with sneakers for a cute errands look or wear it over pants and a tank with heels for a casual dinner out.
