I tried them so you do not have to guess

4 plus-size fall basics I actually wear

I do not want to build a complicated outfit just to feel put together. These are the fall pieces I keep reaching for: an easy layer, a fitted long-sleeve tee, and two pairs of flowy pants with very different fits.

Pick 01

Eytino Asymmetrical Open Cardigan

Why it made the list

The open front makes this my easy throw-on layer. It is lightweight, the asymmetrical hem gives it some shape, and it comes in sizes 1X through 5X.

Pick 02

Pumiey Scoop Neck Long Sleeve Top

Why it made the list

This is fitted and double layered without being a bodysuit. I am normally a 2X and wear the 2X; it lands around my hip and layers well.

Pick 03

TARSE Camo Wide Leg Pants

Why it made the list

I wear these in an XL or 2X at size 18/20. The waistband is soft with a functional drawstring, and you can size down for a more fitted look.

Pick 04

Judy Blue Draw Me In Palazzo Jeans

Why it made the list

These are lighter and flowier than my usual Judy Blue denim. I wear a size 20, and they run long on my 5 foot 8 frame, so check the measurements.
