I'd take a guess for the toplane, there's the biggest chance to get a good matchup. Start Dorans or Flask, then go for tear, Rylais, Archangel. Then propably Abyssal Scepter, GA, Locket, Rabadons or Zhonyas. Masteries will be kind of weird, as you propably want to take both AD and CDR from the aggressive tree and a lot of defensive masteries.

Everything else would just contradict her kit:

In early you need to harass a lot with Autoattacks, as you got no passive, no W, your E is on a long CD and has to be saved and you got no mobility. It also helps you at farming under tower and improves your waveclear in general. The points in the defensive tree make you less prone to all-ins and harass. Later on she'll most likely simply push and farm up.

The Seraph's is mostly so you can stay below 40% HP and still stay relativly safe, so you can wait as long as possible till having to activate your ultimate. Rylais opens up awesome engages with Equinox if your team got just one ranged follow-up CC. You need to find the mix of items keeping you alive while purchasing as few as possible HP and as much AP as possible, so there aren't that many items left, and GA or Zhonyas both become are really interesting choices.
