A KHAKI TRENCH
With a pencil skirt and pumps during the week and boyfriend jeans and sneaks over the weekend, it’ll work around the clock.
We’re all about fun new trends, but don’t you always feel better about splurging a little more on things that will have a place in your closet for years?
Here are 11 classics you can count on to stay chic.

A BLACK TURTLENECK
And then there’s autumn’s best friend.

A SOLID SHIRTDRESS
Easy, breezy and effortlessly chic. It’s spring’s best friend.

A STRIPED SHIRT OF ANY KIND
The French look sticks around.

A DENIM JACKET
You don’t have to pair it with an entirely blue look, but it’s not a bad idea.

A LITTLE BLACK DRESS
A closet MVP of sorts.

A NEUTRAL PENCIL SKIRT
Blazers, blouses, sweaters--this thing will go with everything.

A BLACK OR NAVY BLAZER
Professional without being as stuffy as a full-blown suit.

A WHITE BUTTON-DOWN
Borrowed from the boys and oh so versatile.

A WRAP DRESS
There’s a reason DVF is obsessed with these--they’re pretty much universally flattering.

SLIGHTLY CROPPED BLACK PANTS
Show just a hint of ankle for full, elegant effect.
