Buy a simple pair of khaki pants that flatter your figure. Opt for a fit with a flat front, as pleats can add pounds, and a straight leg to elongate a silhouette. Wear khaki pants in any season by pairing them with a lightweight blouse or knitted sweater.

Stock your closet with a few white, button-down shirts in various sleeve lengths and fabric blends. Wear a white shirt over a sun dress and tie it at the waist, or layer it under a cardigan for those cool autumn evenings.

Invest in a pantsuit that performs double duty. Choose a quality suit that is tailored to your body, and wear it to work as well as evenings out. Extend the life of your suit by wearing a vibrant blouse underneath during warmer months and dark colors, paired with boots, during cooler months.

Choose the right accessories to compliment your clothes. Jewelry, shoes and handbags all should be purchased with quality and longevity in mind. Try to pick accessories that can be worn during many seasons.
