Basic Fall Must-Haves by Rachel Zoe

With a new season just around the corner, its time to stock up the closet with transitional wardrobe basics. What pieces are Rachel Zoe loving right now?

Transitioning to a new season always requires some fresh threads, but you can totally update your wardrobe by adding just a few key pieces! It's important to choose basics in patterns and colors that can be paired with almost anything in your closet. Here I compiled an assortment of classic apparel picks, like a denim jacket, neutral dress and slouchy tee, as well as some more trendy ones, such as a leopard blouse and striped shirt —all destined to make you feel fall fashion-ready. Of course, denim is another definite for every season; never settle for just one style of jeans, but switch up your look by simply alternating from a wide-leg to skinny to cropped style. Shop my full list of finds below, and don't forget, the trick to shutting it down with your basics is to pair them with killer accessories!
