Stock up on blazers, skinny or straight-leg jeans, chino shorts, cardigans, crew-neck sweaters, button-downs, polos, t-shirts, and tank tops. Stripes add flavor to an otherwise solid-color outfit. Small polka dots are okay as well, in moderation.^{[1]XResearch source}
Wear button-downs under sweaters or blazers and cuff the sleeves. Put a blazer or cardigan over a t-shirt or tank-top. Experiment with layering and see what works for you.^{[2]XResearch source}

Belts can come in handy when tying an outfit together. Make sure to own at least one brown and one black leather (or faux leather) belt.
Wear sports bras on a regular basis, unless you prefer regular bras or a regular bra is absolutely necessary. Sports bras are comfortable and make your chest appear a little smaller.^{[3]XResearch source}
Also, invest in a good pair of sunglasses (Ray Bans, aviators, etc.).
They can be easily hidden from sight, or you can roll up your pant legs to show them off.^{[4]XResearch source}
Buy a wallet which you can slip into your back pocket when you leave your bag behind.

Tips

J.Crew factory is your new best friend. Not only does the factory store sell items at lower prices than regular J.Crew, but it also carries a wide array of clothing that suits this look. Places like Madewell and Banana Republic sell some of these items as well.

Jewelry is fine as long as it isn't excessive. Some bracelets and earrings will do.

Be sure to iron everything so that it appears fresh and crisp. This will also help you look more put-together.
