Tie One On

You're never going to want to take this scarf off—and luckily, you won't have to. Made of 100 percent cashmere, the plush wrap is long enough for several loops around your neck on a chilly day and wide enough to double as a shawl in an over-air-conditioned office.

Underthings That Do Not Suffocate You

1. Wearing too-tight undergarments is no way to live! For those who feel like a sausage in shapewear, Spanx's lightweight Trust Your Thinstincts Short has strategically placed paneling that smooths without cutting off circulation.

$58; Spanx.com

2. If you have a bigger chest, we suggest Cacicque for Lane Bryant's T-shirt bra. Its three-clasp closure and extra-wide straps mean you won't have underwir squeezing your rib cage.
$43 to $56; LaneBryant.com

3. There's only one thing to say about these tights: The fleece lining is a luxurious surprise. You'll thank us on wind-whipping days.
$35; Plush-Apparel.com

4. A recent poll of 10,000 women found that 64 percent wear the wrong bra size. Reclaim a little support with Soma's seamless bra.

Underwear For All

Cosabella's lace panties feel as good as they look, whether you're a thong wearer or need more coverage. Because they're cut to lie flat against your body, there's no awkward bunching.

Clockwise from top left:
Thong: So lightweight, you'll forget you're wearing it.

Cheeky: The scalloped lace edges won't dig into your seat.

Hipster: Hits right at the hip bone, giving extra tummy support.

High Waisted: Total coverage without panty lines.

Denim Delight

Recently, a 35-year-old woman in Australia had to be cut out of her skinny jeans—they were so tight, her feet went numb. You can get slimming denim without a trip to the ER. This pair is stretchy and soft enough to feel like jeggings (without, thankfully, being jeggings).
