1. A glamorous 100% silk shirt that, if interviewing for a job, would be hired on the *spot*. Some résumé highlights: longevity in a role (it's a timeless classic), versatility (pairs well with all bottoms), and the ability to perform well under pressure (there's no last-minute plan that this wouldn't work for).
Promising review: "Perfect to style for a business look. Love the softness and shine of this top! I played around with it, and I am still going to style a few more summer looks around it. It is incredibly soft. I got a lot of compliments on this top. It is beautiful! Silk doesn't stretch, I am a small, and it's TTS, but I have a large chest and ordered a M because I did not want a very fitted look or sleeves not being long enough. If I was using it for work, I would probably get a small because it is long. Perfect silk top! Try it out. :)" —Yerazed
Get it from Amazon for $95+ (available in sizes XS–XL and 10 colors).
2. A neutral-toned ribbed bodysuit we all need at least one of in the rotation. This elevated basic comes in either a brief or thong fit so you can choose how much coverage you want, *and* you never have to worry about tucking or re-tucking, since this gives you one gloriously seamless look.
And this has adjustable straps with a built-in bra for added support!
Promising review: "It is SO hard to find bodysuits that a) fit and b) don't have those stupid snaps in the crotch. This bodysuit is a dream. Super stretchy, soft, and fits like a glove. I will say that it seems to run slightly large overall. I plan on sizing down when I inevitably buy another one. For reference, I am a size 22 and a 42D. The built-in bra is a godsend, and the straps are really stretchy and accommodating!" —Haley
Get it from Girlfriend Collective for $58 (available in sizes XXS–6XL, thong or brief cut, and seven colors).
3. A cutesy heart-shaped Kate Spade bag that has gained acclaim on TikTok and is something you should probably consider gifting your BFF...aka you. Because no one loves you like YOU.
4. A knit romper set complete with a cozy cardigan you can adorn with other loungewear accessories, i.e., slippers and socks, OR toss on over a bathing suit for a day-to-night beach day.
Promising review: "Love this outfit! It’s very comfortable, easy to throw on, and can dress up or down. It fits perfectly. I like the parchment neutral color for spring and summer." —Free People Customer
Get it from Free People for $108 (available in sizes XS–XL and seven colors).
5. A trusty pair of 2976 Dr. Martens you can stomp around in come rain or shine because they literally go with every single outfit you own. *Plus* they're super practical for longgg days on your feet, as they're supportive and can be slid on and off easily — no laces as far as the eye can see!
Promising review: "Fits true to size, and breaking in period was better than I expected. The tops of my feet hurt for a maybe a week, but it was worth it because they are the most comfortable and reliable work shoes I’ve owned thus far. No lower back/heel pain anymore through my 10–12 hour shifts on that dreaded hard kitchen tile. They still look almost new months later. Worth the money if you work in a restaurant instead of buying cheap non-slips every three months." —Alyssa Bellows
Get them from Amazon for $172.86+ (available in sizes 5–10 and five colors).
6. A Reformation linen two-piece that'll give you so much bang for your buck you'll want to give yourself a hug every time you wear it. Super versatile — you can match the top, skirt, or *both* with anything you already own for SO many 'fit options that I'm making myself dizzy just thinking about it.
Get it from Reformation for $248 (available in sizes 0–12 and three colors).
7. Illesteva tortoiseshell sunglasses since it's officially spring, baby, and you're gonna want something new and flashy to wear to soak up the rays. Buy these for vacays and wear 'em beyond, because they'll up the ante on any sea or land outfit instantly.
Promising review: "Loved these sunglasses! They are exactly what I was hoping for! They are amazing." —Maggie Lees
Get them from Amazon for $240 (available in two colors).
8. Rectrek zip-off pants reviewers are going wild over since they do the job of three pants in one. Wear 'em full length for a day on the slopes, crop 'em for a hike, or zip 'em off for a sunny jog. Perfectly colorblocked, these puppies are *the* definition of fashion meets function, AND they even have bungee cords so you can slip them off over your shoes! *Drool*
Promising review: "BEST. PANTS. EVER. I have always struggled to find pants that fit me properly. I have long and strong legs. I cried of joy when I finally tried on these pants! Now I own six pairs, and I sold all of my other hiking pants. The built-in belt allows for cinching at the waist for the perfect fit. The pockets are functional. The material is top notch. This company actually listens to its customers and have only added more improvements. The color ways are ~chef’s kiss~. I cannot recommend these enough!" —Outdoor Voices Customer
Get it from Outdoor Voices for $118 (available in sizes XXS–XL and in four color combinations).
9. A compliment-worthy Lilly Pulitzer jacquard romper that looks like a regular (albeit chic) shift dress...but surprise! This cutie is constructed with concealed shorts that make it ideal for windy spring days.
Promising review: "Bought this romper a few weeks ago and love it! It is super comfortable. The material isn't stretchy but has some give. I usually wear a medium but got a small." —Lilly Pulitzer Customer
Get it from Lilly Pulitzer for $218 (available in sizes 00–16).
10. A beaded maxi dress encrusted in sequins that you're sure to dazzle in for black-tie events. Complete with sheer sleeves and a low draping hemline, it's a super chic option for outdoor day-to-night soirées.
Promising review: "I wore this the to my stepson's wedding, and I have never received more compliments with any other dress that I've worn other than this one! It truly is SO beautiful! I only wish I had another occasion to wear it again! I felt so beautiful in this dress! It is very heavy dress, but it's the heaviness that makes it hang so nicely!" —JGlow
Get it from Amazon for $178 (available in sizes 16–44 and three colors).
11. A staple pair of Nike basketball sneakers in case your casual collection could use an upgrade. These babies come in so many fab colors, in either platform or regular soles, and will have you bouncing around the town in so much comfort that you'll think you're walking on clouds.
Promising review: "This is my number-one shoe! I love them so much, and they're very comfortable. They also match with literally everything, and if they're dirty just get some wipes and wipe them clean. I would so recommend getting these shoes. #stunning." —Best Product Ever
Get them from Amazon for $114+ (available in sizes 5–12 and in 41 colors).
12. The Madewell leather transport tote, a signature accessory that's trusted by thousands of shoppers (including our own editors) for being a stylish and practical carryall that will last you for years...years, I tell you!
BuzzFeeder Rachel Dunkel has this and says: "Random canvas totes may come and go, but nothing beats having a permanent, go-to bag. I've had this since college when I used it to carry my heavy load of books, my laptop, and other English major paraphernalia, but it's transitioned flawlessly into my adult life where — OK — I still use it to carry books and my computer. The leather is getting a lovely patina, and the structure of the bag is as strong as the day I got it. It has one zippered interior pocket, which is perfect for keys, cards, or any other tiny necessities. I received this as a gift, so I can confirm that it makes a good one! My bag is even monogrammed, which made the gift all the more special. (You can add monogramming to almost any Madewell leather or denim item for $10 or for free if you're a Madewell Insider!) If you can't spring for this wondrous tote now, I absolutely recommend putting it on your wishlist."
Get it from Madewell for $178 (available in three colors).
13. A totally adorable high-neck eyelet dress, which can only be described by the following two words: closet staple. That means boots, heels, and flats will look utterly divine with this Victorian-inspired style.
Promising review: "I have many purchases from Eloquii, but this dress is beautiful; the eyelet material looks very expensive. I usually wear 18/20, did size up to 20; had read the reviews about the lining not having much give, and it is true. So glad I did size up!!! I purchased the dress in black; it is gorgeous! The length is perfect! You won’t be disappointed with this one; the quality is as expected. I definitely would recommended." —Eloquii Customer
Get them from Eloquii for $149.95 (available in sizes 14–28).
14. Birkenstock Boston shearling-lined clogs, otherwise known as what your feet consider *heaven*. These are a game changer for chilly morns spent both inside and outside your home. TL;DR: These give you all the comfort of classic Birkenstocks made a little more delicious with the toasty, buttery-soft lining.
Promising review: "My favorite shoe for dashing out the door. Love these, as my toes don't get cold, and I don't have to wear socks. Slippers to these and out the door." —Nordstrom Customer
Get them from Nordstrom for $165+ (available in sizes 5–9.5).
15. A leopard print maxi slip dress destined to serve as your fashionable date to every cocktail hour or girls' night out planned for the foreseeable future.

16. A colorful, 18K gold over sterling silver checkered ring perfect to cheer up your accessories collection — and your naked nails if you haven't made it to your mani specialist in a hot minute.
Rellery is a Rhode Island-based, crafted-in-the-USA, female-founded jewelry brand.
Promising review: "So I actually bought THREE of this style, in three different sizes so I could wear it on different fingers. I love it SO MUCH. The quality is amazing, and it’s so unique! It’s extremely comfortable too! Buttery smooth." — Rellery Customer
Get it from Rellery for $145.
17. A glorious feather trim robe you'd be remiss if you didn't at least "favorite." Reviewers are saying that this is worthy of every pretty penny purely because of ~the drama~.
Promising review: "I’m a little obsessed with this robe TBH. It is just as dramatic as I had hoped! Perfect for wearing around the house and posing on balconies, couches, staircases, etc. Or for re-enacting your favorite melodrama where you have to answer the door and gasp demurely as the police tell you about the suspicious death of your rich husband. They will also customize the measurements for you, which is really nice! I was a little overly generous with my measurements because I was worried it would be too small. But it worked out because I quite like having a bit of a train, and since it’s a robe you can always overlap the sides and tie the belt tighter. I do occasionally knock stuff over with the sleeves, so give yourself room to turn. It does shed a little bit, but it hasn't been too much of an issue." —Kathleen Bush
Get it from Amazon for $109.99 (available in sizes S–4XL and 39 colors).
18. A sporty zip-up dress made from recycled cashmere that'll feel touchably soft and cozy as you run errands. Throw this over leggings with high tops or opt for naked legs and boots for a perfectly weatherproof 'fit.
Promising review: "This dress is so cozy and fashionable. I wear it with leggings. It’s too cute!!" —Nadaam Customer
Get it from Naadam for $125 (originally $250; available in sizes XXS–1X and three colors).
19. Pleated nude satin heels so stunning, they'll make every step feel like a fairy tale. Something even more special about these beauts? They're customizable *and* made from deadstock material (aka fabric that was saved from getting tossed by another brand) — which means they're great for your closet *and* the environment.
Alterre designs versatile, ethically made shoes that offer comfort without sacrificing style. Incorporating customizable elements to their footwear, like removable and interchangeable straps, they're made with sustainable materials that are built to last, such as deadstock fabrics, recycled plastic and denim, and traceable, chrome-free leather.

Get them from Alterre for $270 (available in sizes 6–10).
20. Lululemon high-rise leggings in a ~groovy~ print that'll level up your athleisure look and then some. Treat yourself to buttery-soft goodness that brand loyalists mention are well worth the investment.
Promising review: "I love Lululemon’s products. Lululemon Align style is my favorite. These leggings fit beautifully, hold their shape, and make my body look amazing. The style can be worn in many settings. I still have my first pair from four years ago that I wore very frequently. The quality is incredible and look the same and showed no wear. My dog jumped up and snagged them, but I still wear them. It is the only reason I purchased another of the same style and color. You will love these leggings.I always get many compliments when I wear them." —Lululemon Customer
Get it from Lululemon for $98+ (available in sizes 0–20, lengths 25"–31", and 30 colors).
21. Hoka Bondi 7 running sneakers built to go the ~distance~ especially for wide-footed folk. You'll be thanking the shoe gods for these, since they have a roomy toe box, an oh-so-cushy sole, and breathable mesh that cradles the foot just right.
Promising review: "I walk 5 miles a day, 5 days a week. The Bondi 7 is like walking on air. Walking more than 100 miles a month requires the comfort I get from wearing this shoe. There's nothing like it!" —Hoka Customer
Get them from Amazon for $160+ (available in sizes 6.5–11 and seven colors), and get the wide sizes from Hoka for $160 (available in sizes 5–12 and seven colors).
22. A multiway strapless bra that'll feel so glorious, you might even forget that you're wearing one. Babes with small chests will feel supported without the gaps, and this is guaranteed to stay in place without slipping. Plus, it has convertible straps that'll work for any look.
Promising review: "This has got to be the best strapless bra I’ve ever owned. Fits like a glove, no gaps, no having to adjust it from sliding down.
I can finally wear shirts and dresses I’ve been avoiding because I finally have a strapless bra that fits properly." —Pepper Customer
Get it from Pepper for $60 (available in band sizes 30–40, cup sizes AA–B, and four colors).
23. Californians shearling slippers made with premium materials, like a fancy leather-welted footbed and indoor/outdoor traction rubber outsole so you can run out to grab your mail and still feel snug and supported.
Californians is a woman-owned footwear company that designs and crafts their shoes under one roof in sunny Los Angeles, California. Their '60s-inspired designs have a modern twist and are consciously made by the hands of a few skilled artisans. Plus, their shoe boxes are 100% recyclable and are constructed from 100% recycled cardboard and water-based inks, which are less harsh on the environment.
I had the pleasure of trying these out, and I have been wearing these fluffy things every day since I received them. My feet are perpetually cold (even during the summer months), so these feel like they would be wonderful year round since they're warm but have an open toe and back. They're oh-so cozy, feel super sturdy and well made, and mold to your foot — it's just a bonus that they also make every home outfit I wear look trés chic.
Get them from Californians for $209 (available in sizes 5–12 and three colors).
24. A show-stopping silk dress you'll quickly call your "favorite" because its length makes it perfect for cooler days, and the pretty tie-up shoulders give it a certain je ne sais quoi that might just make you the best-dressed wedding guest.
Perrin and Co. is a Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam-based Etsy shop specializing in made-to-order pieces.
Promising review: "I’m so excited I finally got to wear this dress and post my review! To describe this dress in one word — WOW! The material is such high quality, and the stitching is beautiful!!! I got so many compliments and have recommended this shop to quite a few people! The seller was also incredibly helpful and timely in her responses to my questions! I went the custom sizing route, and it fit perfectly! I did wind up altering the length by about 4 inches in the front, but note the dress is supposed to be longer, and I didn’t specify that with her, so I’m sure she could adjust if you’re on the shorter side like me. I’m so incredibly happy with my purchase! I will 100% be ordering again!!!" —Etsy Customer
Get it from Perrin and Co. on Etsy for $160+ (available in sizes XS–4X and in 30 colors).
25. A leopard loungewear set so soft and lightweight, you can wear it to bed without feeling like you're going to overheat. And they may be called "pajamas," but honestly, they're so cute you could definitely wear them outside to make your trip to the deli the most fashionable one your neighbors have ever seen.
I have this glorious set, and I am in love. They feel so soft and cooling yet are very cozy. Typically I'm a big band T-shirt wearer in bed, but these have definitely upgraded my sleep- and loungewear. They're also incredibly versatile! You could certainly get away with pairing the top with your favorite pair of skinny jeans, and no one would question it. The embroidery is also super cute and does not feel itchy on my skin whatsoever. If you're looking for something fancy yet comfortable for your next sleepover, I highly suggest trying these out.

Get it from Sani for $130 (available in sizes XS–XXL and multiple other colors).
26. Maison Miru nap earrings you'll live in as soon as you plop them in. These are designed for everyday wear and for any activity (specifically napping). An added perk? You can wear 'em with over-the-ear headphones without getting poked in the head.
I can confirm that these earrings are in fact poke-free and are the perfect way to add a little sparkle to an everyday look. Their push pin flat backs take a little getting used to, but since they're designed to be worn 24/7, I don't take them out unless I want to swap them for a different style. And lucky for us, the brand provides a helpful guide for inserting this piercing jewelry!
Get them from Maison Miru with styles ranging from $75 to $420.
27. A fluffy, investment-worthy Equihua Cobija jacket — "cobija" translates as blanket in Spanish — which also means it'll feel like you're wearing your softest, most favorite throw blanket that can also be zipped up and worn on a chilly spring day spent at the park.
Equihua is an LA-based fashion brand creating standout designer pieces.
Promising review: "Cobija couture! Ever since Equihua popped on my Instagram feed, I’ve been dying to have a cobija jacket!! I finally treated myself to a birthday gift in the pandemic and got myself one — it was the best decision ever. They are so soft and cozy, I could sleep in it but it’s a work of art so let me not. Living in South Texas I don’t have the luxury of cold weather to wear it as often as I like but let me tell you, once it hits the 60s and below, I’m busting out my Virgencita for anything, literally! I was excited to bring the trash can in at work just so I could wear her and show her off. Get yourself an Equihua." —Itzel Camacho
Get it from Equihua for $510 (available in men's and women's sizes XS–XL).
