Three basics that I could seriously not live without.
First let's begin with my personal favorite: the J.Crew Pixie Pants. These sturdy pants that strongly resemble leggings make it okay to wear leggings as pants. (Personally I think it's always okay to wear leggings as pants as long as they are not transparent…but ya know that's all personal preference.) I actually wear these twice a week and would wear them everyday if it was socially acceptable. 100% worth the money.
Next let's move on to another fan fave: the Madewell Perfect Chambray. Honestly so perfect with any set of cords, leggings, no matter the color or print. Layer it under sweaters in the winter or toss it over a swimsuit in the summer. Love.
Ahh the trench coat. This is that piece of your wardrobe that will take you from average to fabulous in two seconds flat. With a belt that takes your waist right it, it flatters your entire body. Also, most of these coats (you'd have to check on yours!) are water-resistant. I bought mine from Target by the brand Merona roughly three, maybe four years ago on sale for $25. Sadly they no longer have it on the website but I found a similar-looking Calvin Klein (hello, upgrade) one. This is the type of piece that you can honestly find on ANY budget. I mean, if we could all own a Burberry one we already would right?
