1. A slouchy sweater perfect for the utter confusion that is fall weather. Will it be hot by mid-day? Who knows, who cares! This piece of clothing is made from a lightweight yarn that won't make you feel sweaty a mere three minutes into your commute.

2. A shawl-collar jacket you can layer over a wrinkled white tee and presto! You'll suddenly look as if you exude sophistication and professionalism, even if the reality is that you snoozed through your alarm and were almost late for a meeting. Again.

3. A collared dress for the DIY Halloween connoisseur. Not only can you add this dress to your everyday wardrobe rotation, but Wednesday Addams? Madeline? Eleven from Stranger Things? All in the realm of costume possibility.

4. A ribbed bardot mini with a price tag guaranteed to make your heart skip a beat. Slip this LBD on before a night out, knowing full well that the vodka soda you've just ordered probably costs more than your dress.

5. An oversized cowl neck pullover so buttery soft and cozy, you'll probably be wearing it from now until next spring (when overbearing humidity will force you to finally give it a break).

6. Ankle leggings that are basically the perfect wardrobe essential: not see-through, stay secure around your waist, won't get ruined in the wash, don't cost one million dollars, and are super comfortable.

7. A high-waisted satin midi available in the only pattern my eyes have had the pleasure of seeing this past month: LEOPARD. I truly don't care if everyone and their mother owns something similar to the below. I love it.

8. A fleece knit sweatshirt that any Hocus Pocus fanatic needs to own. This super soft garment is as lit as the black flame candle and can basically act as a substitute for the Halloween costume you forgot to purchase.

9. A Scoop chevron maxi dress that looks like it could be plucked off the shelves of some very cool vintage shop — alas, it was not! It's yours for the taking, and you won't have to comb through racks and racks of clothing to find it.

10. High-waisted skinny jeans because the time has come to stow away your denim shorts until next summer. Prepare to wear this denim staple every single day, as it's basically destined to become your new wardrobe go-to.

11. A faux leather jacket for whenever you're running late, which is pretty much always. Just slip this on over any boring outfit, throw your hair into a chic messy bun (emphasis on the messy), and that's it! You're ready. No one will notice that you were ahem 45 minutes late.

12. A sleeved pocket tee because (and I cannot stress this enough) EVERYONE NEEDS A BASIC TEE. They're timeless, you can wear them anywhere, and you can pair them with any bottom. Truly a dream.

13. A fishtail bandage dress you'll want to re-wear twice in one month. Facebook pictures be damned, because you'll be wearing this to every single party you have coming up in the foreseeable future.

14. A plaid flannel because nothing — nothing, I tell ya! — screams "autumn" quite like a lumberjack-inspired button-up.

15. An oversized jersey jumpsuit you can easily dress up with a pair of pumps and then (breathes sigh of relief) you can run home, take off said pumps, and go straight to sleep. This versatile piece is that cozy.

16. A slit jersey skirt practically begging to be featured in your latest Instagram story. Let's get a runway twirl captured by a Boomerang, shall we?

17. A V-neck tunic top you can wear with any bottom, whether a pair of high-waisted jeans or a trendy set of culottes that you're not entirely sure you like, but they were on clearance so bought 'em anyway.

18. A faux shearling jacket because fall is here, apples are waiting to be plucked off of branches, and what does that call for? A photo shoot featuring what is, IMO, the perfect autumnal outerwear.

19. Liverpool ankle jeans made from a fabric so soft and stretchy, even your leggings will begin to feel uncomfortable in comparison.

20. A crushed velvet blazer available in a sour cherry red hue that basically oozes with regality. Oh, and it's also available in toasted marshmallow, midnight blue, and black if red isn't really your color.

21. A sheer sleeve tunic dress here to save the day. And by save the day, I mean it's the kind of outfit that's perfect for any occasion — whether work (boring) or happy hour drinks (not boring).

22. A cropped hoodie made from an unbelievably soft sherpa fleece material, the kind that's on par with your most beloved blanket.

23. A snake print wrap dress you'll find yourself wearing at least eight days a week (😉) because of how versatile it is. You'll be able to easily dress this up or down depending on the social function you sigh have to attend.

24. Durable compression leggings that will mold to every curve of your body, which means they're guaranteed to fit like a colorful glove. Plus, they're squat-proof and use a moisture-wicking material that won't make you feel as if you're stewing in your own sweat.

25. A relaxed-fit denim jacket made from the touch, the feel, the fabric of our lives — 100% cotton. If you take a page from the JoBros book and travel to the Year 3000, you'll see that people are still sporting this classic.

26. Mid-rise sweater-knit joggers designed with a fitted ankle that look more polished than your old high school gym pants, but are blissfully just as comfortable.

27. A ridiculously soft hooded pullover that will make you feel as if you're lounging at home in your pajamas when you are not, in fact, lounging at home in your pajamas.

28. A cozy chenille cardigan available in three gorgeous, fall-approved hues: gold, dark blue, and burgundy. Good luck trying to pick out/purchase your favorite.

29. A high-waisted vegan leather pencil skirt so trendy, it's practically a requirement to have a photo shoot whilst wearing it. proceeds to post #ootd on the 'gram immediately gets 50k new followers

30. A cotton turtleneck that I sincerely feel bad for because I know that you will wear it every single day. The poor thing will never get a break or some well-earned PTO.

31. A hooded faux leather jacket because summer is over, overwhelming humidity is gone, and what is fall without the perfect piece of outerwear? Non-existent, that's what it is.

32. A cowl neck tunic top capable of being both dressed up or down. Pair it with leggings and sneakers for coffee runs, throw on some jeans and heels for nights in which you sigh already agreed to a dinner and it's probably too late to cancel.

33. A velvet wrap dress that will leave you drooling upon first glance. This is undeniable proof that love at first sight EXISTS, and suddenly I find myself being empathetic to the case of Romeo and Juliet. Fall wedding? Here is your uniform.

34. A crewneck dress with pockets (!!!!) that will basically feel like an extension of your coziest, most beloved blanket. Just pair this with some over-the-knee boots and BAM, consider yourself ready for that dinner date.

35. A crewneck jumpsuit designed with POCKETS, which is all you really need to know. Forget your purse at home, folks, because you've now got a new place to store wrinkled receipts and lip balm tubes.

36. A ribbed turtleneck sweater that I can already envision my sister asking to borrow and I can also already envision myself saying no.

37. Mid-rise ankle jeans featuring a snazzy python print for anyone who's sick of the sea of light blues and dark blues overpowering their denim collection.

38. A cropped and oversized trucker jacket featuring a delightful sherpa collar, here to keep your neck feeling toasty and warm (no scarf required).

39. A knit top with sheer sleeves and a floral design I'll just go ahead and add to my cart right now. Date night, give a warm welcome to your new partner in crime! It's likely that this will be worn to every single movie and dinner outing for the foreseeable future.

40. A houndstooth midi skirt that is the dictionary definition of put-together. Like, who took the time to eat breakfast, clean their apartment, do their whole skincare routine, and take the time to pick out an A+ outfit before work this morning? You!

41. A t-shirt dress so ridiculously soft, your body will feel as if it's being enveloped by a fluffy cloud made of kittens and other ridiculously cute baby animals. Plus, this cozy maxi is the perfect thing to dress up or down.

42. A knit cardigan you'll want to keep in your freezing cold office, where the AC seems to consider Antarctica to be weather paradise.

43. A ribbed knit turtleneck because the only thing more versatile than a little black dress is a little black sweater, and the one below is true p-e-r-f-e-c-t-i-o-n.

44. A BLANKNYC faux suede drape front jacket best accessorized with good denim, combat boots, and the sugar remnants of that apple cider donut you just ate.

45. High-rise kick flare jeans for anyone ready to retire their usual uniform of skinny denim. These are even designed with a cropped silhouette, meaning you'll be able to show off your new shoes with ease.

46. A cropped tie-front blouse I hereby dub the quintessential ~going out~ top. Long gone will be the days of turning your closet inside out to find something, anything to wear with your favorite high-waisted denim.

47. A wide leg jumpsuit for that mandatory work cocktail party that you are unfortunately not being paid to attend. Your spirits may be down, but at least Karen from accounting will be jealous of your outfit.

48. A ribbed knit skater dress you can pair with tights, your favorite booties, and a leather motto jacket for an outfit that is equal parts trendy and effortless.

49. A jersey knit long tunic you can layer under a cozy sweater or a fitted blazer. TLDR; this elevated basic is a staple that belongs in every single closet.

50. Drawstring wide leg pants best accessorized with a great book, a freshly-brewed cup of coffee, and your phone on "Do Not Disturb" mode. The best part about fall = not feeling as if you need to be out and about soaking up the sun all day.

51. A belted jacket you'll be wearing from now until the cows come home, until HECK freezes over, until pigs sprout wings and fly, etc.. This hunk of denim is the dictionary definition of ~classic~.

52. A waffle knit open back tee bound to be on constant rotation this fall. While this piece of clothing may not wear Uggs or guzzle down pumpkin spice, it still remains the perfect basic.

53. A cowl neck tunic for the perfect blend of comfort and versatility. This may feel like a cozy pajama top, but you'll also be able to confidently leave your house while wearing it.

54. A ruffled one-shoulder dress featuring a thigh-high slit for legs that feel like playing a subtle game of peek-a-boo. Bonus points for the fact that this is the perfect shade of lipstick red, which is the only color I want to see in my fall wardrobe from now on (...other than black).
