For top lane you begin with a Doran's Ring.

Then you have to see how the game goes and who you are facing: against an AP champion, I would go Spectre's Cowl and then finish the Spirit Visage if you have troubles. If not, you can choose to directly go Abysall Scepter or Rod of Ages. Against an AD champion I usually go with a full tank build (Sunfire Cap, Deadman's Plate...) that you can upgrade with an Abyssal Scepter and than with Rod of Ages if you are doing good.

For boots you have to see. Avoid mobility boots and choose either Armor or Magic Resist boots.

If you are really destroying, which is quite uncommon, you could even go with a full AP build with some tanky items like Deadman's Plate and Spirit Visage; this will be fun but I it's difficult that you will be able to go like that.
