If your solotop lane is against someone you know isn't a threat to Kayle (Lee Sin = bad news) then starting with a Doran's blade + 1mana pot = great damage and with Doran's new passive + Kayle's heal you can easily sustain (assuming you got Wealth) and this is devastating for lvls 1-3 and can earn you First Blood very quickly if you know your Kayle.

If your going mid Kayle then an Amplyfing Tome (early start on a Kage's Lucky Pick) +2mana pots is great for mana sustain and early pushing power.

So starting items can be shaken up a bit. As for later buys, AS is very important on Kayle- but its not like she's useless without it or anything like that. I usually prioritize getting one damageing item first (either a Pickaxe, a Vamp Scepter, or an Amplyfing Tome for Hextech Revolver- item buy depending on how the lane's going) and then I go for Berserker's Greaves for that sweet AS. I find that the AS from Berserker's Greaves is enough to make Kayle a boss until around mid game.

Ex: Solotop Hybrid Kayle. Store buys = Boots +2hp +1mana --> Vamp Scepter --> Berserker Greaves --> finish Hextech Revolver --> B.F. Sword --> Zeal or Stinger. Thats what I mean, you should be able to finish your first major item, and start building into your next major item before you need to buy more AS.
