Truly timeless buys that suit from NYC to LA and everywhere in between.

Stylish dressing that will take you anywhere need not be complex. Stick to sumptuous fabrics, classic lines, flattering silhouettes, and touches of unique style that lend a true point of view, and you quite literally cannot go wrong.
Polo Ralph Lauren embodies all those qualities, and then some. The brand is known for heritage style that transcends generations with quality pieces that are set to become modern-day heirlooms. It only tracks, then, that leaning into pieces from the brand's latest collection, no matter where your yearly travels take you, is a natural fit. From elegant cardigans to a perennially wearable black bag and a blouse that's suitable for any gathering, there's a pick for every purpose and every destination (or home base).
Here, we've rounded up seven of our most coveted selections, the ones that are on every one of our wish lists this year, that will keep you warm when it's chilly and sizzling when you need to be. Shop online or head to one of the company's flagship stores, where the experience is truly as joyful as the pieces themselves.
There's something about a cream cardigan—whether worn open, draped over the shoulders, or buttoned all the way with a simple white tee peeking out—that oozes class. This iconically Ralph sweater will stand the test of time and quickly become a go-to for all occasions in New York and beyond.
It's hard for a puffer to be flattering, but the right neckline, an on-point shade of navy, and a cut that hits just at the hips make it possible. This down option features a standing neck that makes it as stylish as can be for cooler (fine, frigid) climates like Chicago.
Not quite a wide leg nor a formal trouser, the Beaton pant is a little of both with a lot of style. Wear it to dinner with the girls or to a brunch with gran—they naturally appeal in both—and the silhouette will give you that legs-for-days look all Angelinos covet. Plus, thanks to the midweight fabric, the style a year-round wear on the slopes or in the city. Plus, thanks to the midweight fabric, it's a year-round wear even in the LA heat.
This Georgette blouse is a feminine-fab, elegantly-sexy must. The delicate neck tie adds a bit of interest, and the flared sleeves prove style really is all about the details. Pair it with black sequined hot pants for a vibe that's quintessentially Miami.
Fashion needn't be—nor should it be—serious all the time. This adorable tuxedo sweater will bring a smile to any New Yorker's face, and it pairs perfectly with jeans, khakis, and beyond.
We can never get enough suede, from nose to toes. Hang on to (!) the magic of the perfectly sized versatile handbag with the crossbody any city gal dreams of. Bonus for the tiny, blink-and-you'll-miss-it Polo logo, lest you forget how legendary this bag is.
A cozy corduroy button-down shirt is all but required for cities with the word "wind" in their nickname. The flattering slim fit will actually give you a waist (rather than blur it, as so many button-downs do) and the rich shade of navy plays nicely with nearly any hue. Layer under a cropped sweater for a timeless, preppy-girl aesthetic that knows no geographical limits.
