1. A flowy pair of palazzo pants for anyone looking to transition from wearing sweats 24/7/365 without going straight to "hard" pants. Yes, these do come in black, but with such dreamy color options, why not taste the rainbow?
2. A vintage-inspired floral sweatshirt you'll be tempted to sniff because the vibrant bouquet looks so lifelike! 💐
3. A flashy button-down that, yes, technically has a black background, but unapologetically celebrates bold color. It's essentially a party in clothing form, and I dare you to feel anything short of jubilant while wearing this fabulous top.
4. A seriously darling bow embroidered crewneck you will fawn over every time you slip it on — it's just too precious 😭 And that beautiful rust color is basically a neutral, so you won't be straying too far from your natural aesthetic.
5. A faux leather jacket to throw over *literally* any outfit (and it comes in a shocking amount of colors!). Why get it in black when you can get it in red?
6. Some comfy crossover leggings that come in such lovely prints, you'll want to wear them as "real life" pants (I don't blame you!).
7. An ultra-chic leopard-print dress you'd expect to find at a fancy boutique, but shockingly costs less than $50 (!). If you're hesitant about straying from your mostly-black wardrobe, remember that leopard print is considered by many to be a neutral, so think of this as the perfect transitional piece before delving into full-on color.
8. A handknit crop top that's equally as comfy as it is cute. It's stellar for lounging, but would also look great with a high-waisted skirt or pants. And for anyone easing into the idea of colorful clothing, these shades pop just enough without being too in-your-face.
9. A dreamy peasant-style V-neck with billowy sleeves and pleated shoulders for any hopeless romantic who feels nostalgic for a bygone era they never actually experienced. This top also comes in black and white, but those green and blue hues are too pretty to pass up.
10. A pretty pair of pastel high-rise joggers to infuse some cheery color into your casual wear. Good luck not skipping down the street while you wear them!
11. A versatile blazer that'll instantly class up your wardrobe, even if you pair it with your most ripped up jeans and a basic T-shirt. And since it comes in so many fab colors, you may want to take this opportunity to stock up.
12. A silky slip dress you'll buy for the ~dreamy~ color and keep for the fact that it helps brighten your day whenever you put it on. And so versatile! I mean, what else can you wear to a wedding one day and pair with sneaks and a baseball cap the next?
13. A sporty crewneck sweatshirt, because even your most casual basics deserve a colorful overhaul.
14. Everlane's bestselling way-high jean, which now comes in dreamy pastels and jewel tones to liven up your denim collection.
15. A vivid oversized cat pullover any feline fan will find endlessly amusing. Just so, so fun.
16. A preppy collared merino wool sweater you'll want in every sorbet-like shade once you see how lightweight and soft it is.
17. A plaid pencil-style dress that'll make you nostalgic for the days when you actually had a reason to buy back-to-school supplies.
18. Some sleek high-rise bike shorts, because I know I can't be the only one who enjoys working out SO much more when I'm doing it in cute athletic wear. These beauties come in several gorgeous jewel tones, so you can (and should!) feel free to wear them even when you're not engaged in rigorous physical activity.
19. A vibrant one-piece tracksuit that won't only make you smile, it'll brighten up everyone's day who sees you in it. Many reviewers said they bought this to wear to '80s and '90s throwback parties, but life is short, so throw it on whenever your mood could use a boost!
20. A striking red embroidered blouse with mesh detailing and the prettiest flowy sleeves for a look that's flirty without being too over the top. Also: File those back buttons under "Things I'm Obsessed With."
21. A colorful striped pullover that's so fun, even people who "don't do" stripes will have a hard time resisting its charms (can we also talk about that A+ slouch factor?).
22. A dainty puff-sleeve pullover you should have in your closet if you appreciate all things delightful. And with a whopping 44 (!) colors to choose from, the world is your kaleidoscope.
23. A cow and mushroom crewneck that's "udder-ly" endearing (had to!). Cheesy jokes aside, this design is pure happiness.
24. A jaw-dropping floor-length dress you'll want to wear if turning heads the entire night appeals to you. That print! 😍
25. A breezy linen jumpsuit that's perfect for warmer days when your skin needs some room to breathe. And since the lovely dusty colors are more muted, you won't feel like you're drawing too much attention.
26. An asymmetric-hem turtleneck you can wear loose or half-tucked, depending on your mood (it has over 13,000 5-star reviews!). There are an impressive 26 colors and patterns to choose from, just sayin'...
27. A whimsical floral maxi dress that's just begging to be twirled in on top of a mountain a la Julie Andrews. But even if you live in a city that's many miles from that level of nature, you'll love the punchy prints and relaxed silhouette.
28. A pair of ridiculously cute high-waisted pants with not only a bow at the waist, but at the tapered ends as well 🥺 I think bottoms often get overlooked when it comes to color, but lucky for us, these come in 40 hues!
29. And on that note, some bright jogger-style Champion sweatpants that'll have you singing their praises once you realize how comfortable they are — you'll seriously want a pair in every gorgeous shade.
30. A twist-front tee you'll be reaching for pretty much every day during the warmer months, thanks to its versatility (cute under a jacket, cute on its own) and the fact that it comes in a plethora of fun colors and prints. At these prices, stock up on a few!
31. An organic cotton hoodie dress that pretty much defines effortless-cool. Just a warning that it comes in lots of gorgeous colors, so good luck choosing just one!
32. And, a waffle-knit Henley warm enough for layering but lightweight enough to wear pretty much year-round. All-season staples, we love to see 'em (esp when they come in 20+ colors) 👏
