Unless otherwise specified, all sizes in this post are listed in women's.
1. Chic, somehow-only-$15 sunglasses that some folks say are comparable to a certain brand that rhymes with Shmay-Span.
Promising review: "I am still in shock that these sunglasses were so nice. I bought them for the style and look (trendy yet comfortable) and figured the polarized label was a gimmick (polarized sunnies I’ve bought in the past have been well over $200). I was going on a trip and needed some sunglasses I wouldn’t cry over if I didn’t return with them (always lose mine). These sunglasses were packaged beautifully. They came with a polarized tester! They passed the test as well as my Ray-Bans I knew were polarized, but when I kept switching back and forth between these and my Ray-Bans I’m pretty sure the lenses on these are even CLEARER. Maybe because they were brand new, but I was so impressed!! They are so cute and stylish while also so comfortable with an amazing lens. BUY THESE!! Super-good deal, you won’t be disappointed! They also seem so sturdy, so I’m hoping they will last me a while. Update: I still have these sunglasses and I’m still obsessed!!! ONLY issue I have had with them is the lens glue is kinda melting down but I think it’s because I left them out alone in Arizona 110-degree weather, just boiling them out there. Still look amazing, still so strong. I’ve sat on them 8,574,927 times and they are still alive. Amazing. I’ll never buy expensive sunnies again." —liz

2. Soft, high-waisted leggings, which are ridiculously comfy — take it from the over 17,000 5-star reviews!!! They're sure to become your new go-to pair, and with a price tag under 20 bucks, their cost-per-wear will be close to $0.
Still in the market for the perfect basic? See our post on the best black leggings.
Promising review: "Holy crap, these leggings are amazing. Without exaggeration, they are the most comfortable item of clothing I've ever put on my body. I'm 5'10" and I often find 'one size' to be too short, but these fit down to my ankle. The best part is, the top doesn't roll and they don't slide down. Keeping in mind I'm wearing them during winter, they also didn't make me sweat. I didn't want to take them off. I need to order a billion pairs, including a few to wear to bed." —Avery T
Get them from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in one size fits most for straight and plus sizes and in three styles, including one with pockets, and 25 colors and prints).
3. A tropical print cover-up scarf worthy of the Love Island villa and/or your most Instagrammable vacation. This'll take that solid color bikini you've been wearing since college to new heights.
Promising reviews: "So cute. I used this for a little shawl when I was cold on the plane, then as a wrap on the beach! So pretty, definitely recommend." —Jennifer B.
"Perfection. This was such a fun cover-up! Love it! Lots of compliments." —Rebecca S.
Get it from Lulus for $22.
4. Totally ~clawsome~ and trendy colorful nonslip hair claw clips with over 24,000 5-star ratings from folks who know they can up(do) the heavy lifting when you're in need of a cute way to toss your hair into a messy bun.
Promising review: "I have worn these every day since I got them! They have a soft matte feel. The colors match the product photos perfectly. They have a good grip in my hair (I have collarbone-length, medium thickness hair, but a lot of it). I think these would work well for almost any length or thickness of hair, though. They are strong; you can tell because they take a bit of effort to open them at first. Bottom line, if you’re unsure if you should buy them, you should." —Samantha
Get a set of four from Amazon for $7.64+ (available in nine color combinations).

6. A soft and effortless short-sleeve tie-dye maxi dress with pockets, which has left over 9,000 people ~feeling groovy~.
Reviewers say it runs large!
Promising review: "This is the easy, breezy, simple dress I’ve been looking for! It’s super soft with some stretch and has pockets!!! And the tie-dye accent gives it some pizzazz so it’s not so plain. You can throw this on for anything. Dress it up with some boots or heels, keep it casual with flip flops or slides. Accessorize with a jean jacket, jewelry, or hats. Want more colors! I normally wear a large in most of my clothes and got the same here; fits loose and flowy as expected." —Ann D.
Get it from Amazon for $28.99 (available in sizes XS–XXL and in 38 prints).
7. An adjustable, opalescent ring that's delicate enough to rock every day, but eye-catching enough to stand out and score comments from many an admirer.
Promising review: "This is the perfect ring, and it’s so cheap! Normally, I do not enjoy wearing rings because I subconsciously feel them on my finger, but this ring is so lightweight. I really love it!" —Ansley Snodgrass
Get it from Amazon for $13.95 (available in five styles).
8. A dramatic, lace-trimmed long open cardi to top off any casual look with a little extra boho flair.
Promising review: "I must say, I'm really surprised at how cute this cardigan is! I ordered the mustard color and it looks exactly as pictured. I style it as shown in the picture and it looks just like that on. The crochet trim is really nice and the fabric is great quality as well. I thought this was going to look really cheap, but it doesn't at all. It's actually the perfect weight to transition between seasons. Length is great, color is pretty, and the quality surpassed my expectations. I liked it so much, I just ordered another in the charcoal color." —Ashley S.
Get it from Amazon for $28.99 (available in sizes S–3X and in five colors).
9. Totally sweet gummy bear earrings that'll serve as perfect ear candy, even if your orthodonture prevents you from enjoying the real thing (big mood).
They're from a Black- and queer-owned, LA-based shop that specializes in fun and quirky earrings!
Promising review: "This seller can have all my money! The package was absolutely flawless. I ordered several pairs of earrings, and they were all wrapped up beautifully in little bags with stickers. I will definitely buy more from this seller. They even included a sweet card with my order. 10/10!!!" —Dani Langston
Get them from InsomniaCraftShop on Etsy for $6 (available in 10 colors).
10. A glam graphic tee so you can technically "put on" makeup even for a lazy day at home. And this tee dressed up with a skirt? *Chef's kiss from a pink-lipsticked mouth*.
Reviewers recommend sizing up if you want a slouchy fit — and clearly, they love pairing it with leopard (I wholeheartedly approve).
Promising review: "I own this tee in a couple of colors and always get compliments when I wear them. If you want it to fit like in the product photos, go up one or two sizes. I'm usually a medium, and I ordered an XL so I could tuck it into pencil skirts/skinnies and still get that classic T-shirt look. The material is quite soft, and it holds up well to washing." —ChicLininAZ
Get it from Amazon for $13.99 (available in sizes S–XXL and in five colors).
11. A hot hot hot embroidered lace bodysuit that comes with a cute matching choker for an outfit that'll turn heads even if you never leave your bedroom (whether you're wearing it for ~sexy times~ or just taking some fabulous mirror selfies for the 'gram). And of course, you could also put pants or a skirt on over it if you *must* leave the house.
It's got adjustable straps in the back!
Promising review: "Honestly I don’t often leave reviews for things, but I am so satisfied with this purchase. It’s such a great price for a good lacy bodysuit and a great style. You can wear it in the bedroom but probably also out — I plan to wear it with a black skirt or jeans! The roses cover up the nipple area, but if you’re looking for a little more support, wear a black bra(lette) underneath for a good look as well." —Sara
Get it from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in sizes S–XXL and in 11 colors).
12. A classic plaid miniskirt because...wait, can you hear that? I think it's the sound of this cutie calling out to be paired with over-the-knee boots and then be posted on your feed.
13. Glam druzy and tassel statement earrings that'll add extra pizzazz to everything from jeans to an LBD to that tank top you wear to WFH every week.
Check out BuzzFeed's full write-up on these gorgeous earrings.
Promising review: "These are super cute and great quality. I like that it’s a stone-like effect on the top — I didn’t realize that from the pictures. I want more! I ordered a few other similar earrings at the same time that were cheaper. You could definitely tell the difference in the quality. The tassels on the cheaper ones were frayed and not as smooth as these. It was also nice that they sent multiple backs." —Kindle Customer
Get them from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in 44 colors).
14. A fan-fave basic cami with over 3,000 5-star reviews — folks are layering on the praise just like you'll layer your fave sweaters and jackets on this bb (tho it looks darn cute on its own, too!).
Promising reviews: "Everyday staple. I wear these almost every day. I usually purchase a few when I catch a sale. They hold up really well in the wash." —Misha84
"I recently tried one of these because it was on sale and I've been curious for a while — YESSSSS. These are amazing. The length is where it's at. I'm a layer girl and this covers and stays put. I'm currently buying four more to match all colors in my wardrobe. Wish I had gotten these (and the tunic camis) earlier. Good material as well. Seriously, I'm so impressed." —CCINMKE
Get it from Torrid for $12.67+ (originally $19.50; available in sizes M–6X and in eight colors).
15. Minimalist ear cuffs to add a little edge to your OOTD that you're sure to fall in ~lobe~ with. IDK about you, but I'm definitely ear for a way to upgrade your jewelry game without a new piercing.
They're handmade in Israel, and the two available styles look very cool worn together, like above!
Promising review: "Love these ear cuffs. I am 62-years-old and do not want to get another piercing at the top of my ear, so this works out great. I don't even feel the earring there." —Shelly
Get one for $7.92 (available in two styles and two metals) or the set of two for $14.24 (available in two metals), both from Benittamoko on Etsy.
16. Seriously stylish faux-leather shorts that are even more of a bargain when you consider you can wear them for all seasons — they look sooooo cute with tights!
17. An influencerworthy felt fedora available in neutral hues and bold statement colors and with over 31,000 (!!!) 5-star ratings, because it's the perfect way to (literally) top off any transitional-weather ensemble.
I have this hat and it's so cute! I am not a huge hat person, but I *am* a huge purple person, so the rich royal hue sent this affordable style statement to the top of my wish list. I've only worn it once so far (with the outfit above), but it was an absolute compliment magnet that day and it made me feel like a rockstar — not at all silly like I feared it might. I already have several ideas for more ways to wear this outfit-maker, and I 10/10 recommend for a style upgrade.
Promising review: "This hat is EVERYTHING. You will feel like a new person when you go out with this thing. It completes your look. It hides your sweaty greasy roots after being out all day. It doubles great as a fan. Fits a normal head and your big head friends with ease. Need to be basic? Gonna be Crocodile Dundee for Halloween? You already know. I’m about to order three more in different colors because it is so versatile and a whole MOOD. Buy the hat. Enjoy your brunch." —brettenie saldana
Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in 28 colors).
18. A practically perfect pullover sweatshirt that'll make you forget the concept of "boyfriend sweatshirt" — you'll be ready to make a more serious commitment and full-on marry this baby.
Promising review: "Perfect! This is so comfy I don’t ever want to take it off! It is very oversized, but after I washed it, it’s actually so perfect and I’m glad I got the large. The color and quality are amazing. It feels like it’s already been broken in. If I had a boyfriend to steal sweatshirts from, I feel like this would be it. 😂" —beautypot ✨
Get it from Amazon for $17.99 (available in unisex sizes S–3XL and in eight colors).
19. Stunning, hand-painted, and hypoallergenic rain cloud ear jackets you should only buy if you're prepared to be caught in a torrential downpour of compliments.
You can also rock 'em as just the cloud stud, without the fringed back (and they come with extra backs for that very purpose)!
Kellan & Keira is a small business based in Seattle that makes lots of truly inventive ear jackets — I love their horoscope line, too!
Promising reviews: "I am so glad I finally bought these. I saw them months ago and fell in love but wasn’t ready to commit just yet. They came well-packaged and are beautiful quality. My ears are very sensitive as well and these earrings did not irritate them at all. If you’re thinking about getting these, just do it!" —Jacque Verdoorn
Get them from KellanKeira on Etsy for $28 (available in four colors).
20. Rubber Chelsea rain boots reviewers love so much, they're rocking them even when it's not raining! Remember when rain boots used to ruin your outfit? Now they make it.
Promising review: "Is it weird I wear rain boots everywhere now? I have two small kids I’m constantly chasing around. I wear these boots everywhere — grocery store, park, and on walks with the fam. These are perfect! T-shirt, jeans, and these boots are all you need." —Txtaf
Get them from Target for $24.99 (available in sizes 5–11 and in three colors).
21. The perfect, go-everywhere crossbody bag you've been searching for your entire purse-carrying life. Adjustable strap? Check. Room for all your crap? Check. Inside and outside pockets? Check. Cute design that's not too bulky? You guessed it, check. No wonder it's got over 5,000 5-star reviews!
Check out BuzzFeed's full write-up on this bag.
Promising review: "This is an unbelievable bargain. I've looked everywhere for the perfect crossbody bag, and this is it. The inside liner is soft and my giant iPhone 7 Plus fits perfectly in the front zipper!!! I'm about to order it in another color. The strap is longer than on most bags, which is what I was looking for." —S. Ducote
Get it from Amazon for $17.95 (available in 35 colors).
22. A sleeveless, lightweight fleece jumpsuit that's perfect workout or Netflix binge attire, sure, but would also be darn cute with a faux-leather jacket and sneakers or booties. In other words, not only will you never *want* to take it off, but you'll also never *have* to.
Reviewers recommend getting your usual size or sizing down if you're between sizes and/or want it more fitted.
Promising review: "I’m not so much into dresses except for around the house like pajamas, and sometimes I want an option that feels like a dress but allows me freer movement, and heck! Give me some pockets, too! This is absolutely perfect. You can spread your legs as much as you want, enjoy the roomy pockets, and the relaxed waist makes it feel like there’s nothing restricting you at all. This is the height of casual comfort, and it can be used around the house or for going out, and it doesn’t even look half bad when you wear the right accessories. I love it!" —Hedera Femme
Get it from Amazon for $29.60+ (available in sizes XS–6X and in 20 colors and prints).
23. A designer-inspired faux leather double-circle belt you (and your fave denim) will love so much you'll wanna put a ring on it.
It's got over 10,000 5-star ratings!
Promising review: "This is my favorite belt! It's perfect with jeans and I get so many compliments on it. I love that the double-ring is sort of designer-inspired, but not a complete knockoff of the Gucci belt. I highly recommend! I am typically a medium and the medium was perfect." —Everyday Teacher Style
Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in sizes XS–XL and in 10 styles).
24. A pretty shell effect pendant necklace that'll look fab on its own or layered with other necklaces. Whatever your style, this can def become your new signature piece.
25. A cute and comfy henley top with more style than a basic tee, but that's just as easy. Go ahead and stock up on a few — you won't be the only one.
Promising reviews: "The perfect summer top. I love this top so much that I've purchased four of them. I get compliments from strangers, especially when I wear the one with lemons. Fun shirts!" —Aline
"These tops are unbelievably comfortable! I am a short person (5'3"), so usually tunics are way too long for me. These tops are absolutely perfect!" —SGMitch
Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in sizes 1X–4X and in 19 colors and prints).

Get it from Cloth and Cord on Amazon Handmade for $21.60.
27. A high-neck, racerback cutie labeled a bralette, but that's essentially just a super versatile crop top you might not need another bra under. A trendy, comfy, and practical staple — we love to see it.
Promising review: "This top is SO GOOD! I’m a 34DDD and ordered a medium. It is so soft and stretchy and comfy. Provides enough support for my preference! I want it in every color." —SDAVIDSON12
"I have three different colors of this top/bralette! And I LOVE IT!! It has amazing support and it’s so cute!! And it goes with everything 😍!" —Brianna
Get it from Aerie for $17.47 (originally $34.95; available in sizes XXS–XXL and in seven colors).
28. Fringed hoop earrings that'll finish off a boho chic look *chef's kiss* perfectly. They're giving me "music festival headliner" vibes in the best way, and at under $10 a pop, you may as well get a few colors. 😉
Promising reviews: "A very good earring!! Very pretty and you don't even feel them when you're wearing them!! A lot of earrings are too heavy for me but these are perfect!!" —Kittykay
"I'm in love with these earrings. I will be back again to order more earrings in every color." —Vashti Kilimo

Promising review: "These are lifesavers. The charcoal pair is cotton and soooooo comfy for summertime. But I have multiple pairs of each color and swear by them. They are great for the gym and just wearing under dresses and skirts." —MissLee
Get them from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in sizes XS–3XL and in 33 colors and styles, including different lengths).
30. A chic and classic Madewell bandana that's a truly MVP (most versatile player) accessory. It can be a scarf, headband, hair tie, accent on your purse, or even a pawsh accessory for your pooch. Also it comes in so many cute prints, I want to remind you that nobody says you have to pick just one.
Promising review: "I have many expensive designer scarves and I always reach for these little Madewell scarves. They aren’t thick and the price is amazing. I bought a couple of others. They are lightweight and you could wear it on your wrist or in your hair. It’s also great to tie to a backpack or tote! Highly recommend." —MarieF
Get it from Nordstrom for $14.50 (available in 23 designs).
31. A racerback romper with adjustable straps available in tons of fun prints from flamingos to dinos to palm trees. Wear it around the house now and then absolutely everywhere this summer.
Promising review: "I like this because it is easy to pack on a weekend getaway. I wore it around the condo, and the hotel during my summer stays. I used it for pajamas on one of my trips since I forgot to pack for sleep time. So comfy and cute. I wore it out to the beach, and just sitting on the balcony. I plan on buying another." —Pam Smith
Get it from Amazon for $26.99 (available in sizes S–3XL and in 36 styles).
32. A mini crossbody bag that looks high fashion enough that you'll have to convince people you're not lying about getting it at Target for $25. I mean, you could always tell 'em you picked it up at Paris Fashion Week. This with a tailored coat and oversized sunglasses? Oui, s'il vous plait.
The strap is adjustable!
Promising reviews: "I'm obsessed. I’m very tempted to buy all of the colors of this bag! The strap is a bit short for a crossbody on me, but I am busty and 5’8”. If you usually have trouble with finding a crossbody bag to fit, this probably isn’t going to be the one to work. It definitely looks cute carried by the handles tho." —Chloe
"Love it! This bag is GORGEOUS!!! It’s bigger than I thought it was and the quality is great. So glad I added it to my collection." —Gina
Get it from Target for $25 (available in seven colors).
33. A cozy blanket scarf you can rock a bunch of different ways, from around your neck to over your shoulders as a shawl. However you wear it, it's sure to have people checking out your great style.
Promising review: "I've been shopping on Amazon for as long as I can remember and this scarf is the best purchase I have ever made. THE BEST. I love plaid. My attire is basically a constant state of autumn aesthetic no matter what the season actually is. This scarf is so soft. It feels like I'm petting a bunch of tiny kittens. It's thin, but not too thin. It doesn't feel cheap. I like this because it's not super bulky around my neck. This thing is gigantic. I was freezing in my office yesterday and unwrapped my scarf and made myself a fun little blanket to enjoy during my 9–5. I felt so cozy and warm. It was wonderful. I freaking love this scarf." —Sarah
Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in 13 patterns).
34. A special scrunchie made by fan-fave brand Bread, which specializes in products for 3a–4c hair — so you can really trust it'll work on your gorgeous strands (and look super cute whether it's around your wrist or your bun!).
It's from a Black woman-owned business!
Promising review: "I absolutely did not expect this scrunchie to come through like it has. It's gentle enough to wear it when I pineapple my hair at night but stays secure. I also wear it around my wrist almost every day as an accessory! Also, I accidentally ran it through the washer and dryer and the quality held up." —amelia a.
Get it from Bread Beauty Supply for $16.
35. A super soft athleisure-inspired top that's a cute and casual basic, but that also has stitched details and a longer hemline that make it more interesting than a typical tee.
Reviewers say it fits true to size!
Promising review: "I absolutely love the way this fits me, and how soft the material is. I can easily dress this up or down and be comfy wearing it all day. The color is also stunning and there are a bunch of choices. This is going to be a go-to piece in my wardrobe." —Mandi S
Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in sizes 14–28 and in 19 colors).
