The Pencil Skirt
Sure, it’s your ever-faithful work go-to, but the pencil skirt is also one of the female bod’s BFFs. It traces the hips, hugs the booty and creates an hourglass waist—need we say more? Go knee-length for a classic feeling or shorter if you’re really feeling va-va-voom.Photo: Bauer-Griffin.com
Red Stilettos
Especially in their highest heel form, they’re total man magnets thanks to their hot scarlet hue (seriously, everything called scarlet is hot—think Johansson and the sexiest color known to woman and man). Red heels take confidence to pull off, but there’s payoff in all the compliments you’ll get. One catch: Mix them with a non-red something unless you’re prepared to take on the monochromatic trend.Photo: Jim Spellman/WireImage.com


Oversize Sunglasses
Were big sunnies actually invented to keep out the UV rays or to help celebs be a little more incognito? Either way, they lend a major dose of Hollywood star power to any gal who gets behind a pair—the bigger the better. And, yes, it’s OK even if your personal paparazzi and entourage consist of one best friend, combined. It’s quality not quantity, right?Photo: Bauer-Griffin.com
The LBD
To each her own little black dress! Whether your little black dress is sleek and minimal or has tons of detailing everywhere, there’s no denying it’s a key object in every woman’s closet. Dress it up with your strappy sandals, or dress it down with a cozy cardi. No matter where you’re going, you’ve got a fail-proof recipe for 365-days-a-year-chic.Photo: Bauer-Griffin.com
