Unless otherwise specified, all sizes in this post are listed in women's.
1. Posh wide-leg pants ready to take crop tops and pretty much every top you'd usually tuck into jeans to new, Parisian-chic heights.
Some reviewers recommend sizing up!
Promising review: "New wardrobe staple! Awesome pants! The quality would make me think they cost more like $60–90. I bought the tan ones and after wearing them a couple times went back a week later and bought them in black. Now, I’m 5’6”, and normally when I buy this kind of pants they end up being wayyy too long, but these are the perfect height with 1–3” heels! They do drag a tiny bit with flats, but I prefer small heels anyway, and it’s not a major tripping hazard or anything. Also I wear a size 10–12 normally, but ordered these in 12–14 both times. I probably could’ve gotten away with ordering a 10, but I’m glad I ordered a size up, because it is loose and has some extra room at the waist. Highly recommend! Buy different colors!" —Stephanie
Get them from Amazon for $33.99+ (available in sizes XS–2X, with the off-white pair also available in short lengths, and in 27 colors and prints).
2. A set of straw statement earrings so your spring and summer outfits will never be lacking a fashionable finishing touch. These are sure to become ~woven~ into your regular rotation.
3. A regal metallic pleated maxi skirt with an elastic waist, because who says glam and comfy can't mix? This will give new, sparkly life to any — and I mean any — top in your closet.
For example, I am living for the way the reviewer above styled it with a casual hoodie!!!!
Promising review: "The pictures do not do this skirt justice. I received over 20 compliments at our company Christmas party. The silver is both a light silver and dark silver at the same time and it picks up and mimics whatever color you put with it. It’s the perfect complement to any top!!" —Teri M
Get it from Amazon for $22.96+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and in eight colors and knee- or ankle-length).
4. Gorgeous and Gucci-esque mules here to give you serious bang for you buck(le) and make everything you slide 'em on with look luxe.
Promising review: "Wow, what a steal. These look great. Good value and quality, true to size, and comfortable. Highly recommend a good slip-on shoe; perfect for summertime in the workplace or to tie your outfit together at brunch. I want them in black now, too." —LC
Get them from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in sizes 6–11 and in nine colors and prints).
5. A plaid Peter Pan collar dress giving maximum Lexi Howard vibes — I've never even seen Euphoria and I know that much. This cutie can be super sweet or cool and edgy depending on how you style it; personally, I'd rock it with combat boots!
Promising review: "I recently bought a whole bunch of dresses on Amazon, and I gotta say, this one was my favorite of all of them! :) I just love plaid, and this dress with the Peter Pan collar actually looks very similar to an expensive designer dress I had been eyeing! Now I have a budget-friendly look. This dress is very lightweight (I do wish it was a little thicker, but no worries!). I added a petticoat under mine for some extra flare (but it looks good without one, too!). I also added a black bow at the neck for a school uniform feel. Adore it!!" —libbyfranc
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in sizes XS–XL and in five colors).
6. An edgy denim utility jumpsuit complete with stretch, pockets, and a cool exposed zipper, not to mention the magical ability to make you feel super confident the second you put it on. Go ahead — strike a pose.
7. Absolutely epic sequined lace-up booties that are essentially badass energy in shoe form, and make it physically impossible to have a boring outfit.
Promising reviews: "Hey all my size 10 divas! Listen, you want this bootie! The fit is super comfy and it really is a size 10! You know the struggle, we purchase a 10 only to see that it fits like every bit of a 9! Lol! I originally purchased a size 11 because I thought it might run small but I was pleasantly surprised that the fit is true to size! So I returned it for a 10. They are GORGEOUS! The heel is high, maybe about 4.5 to 5 inches, but with the platform they are easy to walk in. Trust me, you'll love them! So like I said, no buts, just buy them and thank me later! Size 10 diva out! 😉" —Lady G
"Flyness. These boots gave me my whole life." —SanTigsha Pickett
Get them from Amazon for $42.98+ (available in sizes 6–12 and in three styles).
8. A regal one-shoulder bodysuit you can easily tuck in to pretty much any skirt or pair of pants to create a red-carpet-worthy outfit. Just watch out for paparazzi.
Some reviewers suggest sizing down!
Promising review: "Stunning. I love this top!! I got a small in the red. It is exactly as pictured. Beautiful color! It was a little baggy but also very comfy. I’m ordering another color! So many compliments! Might try an XS this time." —CM
Get it from Amazon for $26.99+ (available in sizes XS–3XL and in 12 colors).
9. Ridiculously cute and surprisingly lightweight polymer clay cactus earrings that'll never ~desert~ you when you wanna add a little whimsy to a look. Honestly, with these on your lobes, who cares what else you're wearing?!?
This small biz specializes in zero-waste clay earrings that are basically wearable joy — it's hard to pick just one pair!
Promising review: "Love these cute little cacti! The mismatch color is super cute and wearable with basically everything!" —Synthia Lou
Get them from Sun Sprinkles Shop on Etsy for $35 (available in two colors or as a mismatched pair).
10. A super cool denim shacket with leopard print panels to give even the plainest tanks and leggings that ~fierce~ factor. Oh, and a Tan-France-level half-tuck is a must.
Promising review: "It’s amazing! It’s a lot less bulky than I expected it to be, which is so nice! I absolutely love it and will buy it in different colors too!!" —Lexi Roberts
Get it from Amazon for $33.88+ (available in sizes S–XXL and in 10 colors).
11. A super cute cutout swimdress to turn the path from your room to the pool into your own personal catwalk on your next vacay.
Some reviewers recommend sizing up!
Promising review: "Stop looking and BUY this! This is the best bathing suit I've ever had. I wanted something sexy but cute! I took a chance on this swimsuit and OH. MY. GOD. It makes me look and feel like a bombshell! I bought a size up from my normal size and the fit is perfect! The material is fantastic. High quality and makes you feel supported. The chest area is so nice and the padding is beautiful. I'm definitely gonna buy another! I've already had so many compliments and friends asking where I found this gem! Buy. This. Bathing suit." —Asia Pasmat
Get it from Amazon for $30.99 (available in sizes XL–5XL and in 20 prints).
12. ~Check~tacular printed pants equally perfect for elevating a plain white tee or serving as part of a mixed-print ensemble — I dare you to try 'em with a floral accessory.
Beginning Boutique is a woman-owned Australian shop with a huge selection of trendy clothes!
Promising review: "They’re a perfect fit and looked amazing with my outfit. They’re slightly stretchy so they are super comfortable too." —Rubie C.
Get them from Beginning Boutique for $59.99 (available in sizes S–L and in more colors here).
13. A super on-trend cutout knit top to swap in for simple sweaters and tees when you're going for a look that would catch the eye of a street style photographer (or just score you compliments at dinner).
You may want to size up if you're between sizes or don't want it to be super body-hugging!
Promising review: "Wasn’t sure what the opening would look like and how revealing this would be, and am so pleasantly surprised! It’s revealing enough that it’s good for a night out but could easily be dressed down for day to day. Material is soo soft. Getting this in every color." —MB
Get it from Amazon for $23.99 (available in sizes S–XL and in eight colors).
14. An iconic Levi's faux leather moto jacket in the bright color of your dreams. It comes in so many hues and textures, from basic to bold, you're sure to find one that'll make you swoon (I certainly did).
I own too many jackets; it's just a fact. I don't wear fur or leather for ethical reasons, so I specifically own a lot of faux leather jackets. Purple is my favorite color, so yes, I own a few purple jackets. But let me tell you, I ordered this baby right after I saw it anyway, closet space be damned. It's such a rich, pigmented, unusual shade of purple (not eggplant, not lilac, but IN-YOUR-FACE-BRIGHT purple) that I couldn't pass it up. These are definitely thicker moto jackets, which means they're not like lighter faux leather jackets I have that I can almost toss on like a sweatshirt. No, these are definitely made to be part of a more put-together look, but they are great for it. The length is excellent, because it's cropped enough I could see it working with skirts or dresses, but not so cropped that it looks awkward with jeans. I've only worn it once so far, but I have plenty of other outfit ideas. I rocked it as part of a super layered look, and both for that reason and for comfort I would recommend going up a size if you're between sizes!
Get it from Amazon for $79.50+ (available in women's sizes XS–4X and in 38 colors and prints).
15. A double-layer, 18-karat gold-plated chain link necklace that'll do all the layering work for ya and is ready to become you new signature piece — it'll lend a badass touch to pretty much every ensemble.
The length is adjustable so you can get it perfect for each look!
Promising review: "Quality chain necklace. I've been wanting this necklace for a while and finally treated myself! It is a great weight; you can tell it's quality by the thicker chains and the weight it has to it. The package was beautifully wrapped." —Emily J.
Get it from Ettika for $50.
16. An effortlessly on-trend shirt jacket (aka a shacket), which, as the name suggests, can be styled like a shirt or a jacket. It's basically the spork of the fashion world. Versatility, people!
Promising review: "I originally bought a large because I wanted it to fit with a little room. I ended up replacing it with a medium because it is already a loose design. I absolutely love this jacket and I have already worn it a dozen times. That's rare because as a clothing-a-holic, I have so many others to choose from." —Renee
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and in 11 colors).
17. An influencerworthy felt fedora available in neutral hues and bold statement colors and with over 29,000 (!!!) 5-star ratings, because it's the perfect way to (literally) top off any chilly-weather ensemble.
I got the purple one for Christmas and have yet to wear it, but am super excited to do so this spring. I love to accessorize and have very bold style, but hats are something I haven't experimented with since my 9th grade trilby-wearing days (I will not apologize!!!). This looks cute on and I'm looking forward to using it to make blazer-and-jeans combos and casual dresses feel totally fresh.
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 $17.25+ (available in 24 colors).
18. A minty fresh faux leather blazer that may become a permanent part of your body, you'll wear it so often. There's no outfit you won't wanna throw it over this spring, and I can't think of a single outfit you shouldn't.
19. Or for even more drama, a blue faux leather trench I don't think would look out of place at Fashion Week.
Get it from Asos for $69.90 (available in sizes XS–XL).
20. A surprisingly chic knit lounge set that's a heck of a lot cuter than plain old sweats, but still snuggly. Plus, you can break up the top and shorts for tons of WFH outfit combinations.
Promising review: "It’s safe to say that I am OBSESSED with this lounge set! The color is just like the pictures and it fits true to size. The quality is much better than anticipated, which was a pleasant surprise! It’s super comfy and cozy for lounging around, but you can also throw on a pair of jeans to dress it up and wear it out! I also think the shorts would be acceptable to wear out with a graphic tee. :)" —Julia N
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and in 20 styles, including short sleeve versions).
21. Scene-stealing funky-framed sunglasses, which — warning — might get you mistaken for a celebrity.
Promising review: "I absolutely adore these shades. They have such a rich, sophisticated, and classy look. They have an extremely sturdy construction, with a good weight to them, and are trendy. The packaging was great; the magnetic case, insert, and dust cloth make you think you paid $100+, but I only paid $15. 😊 Well worth it and I would buy again." —Msjayyb
Get them from Amazon for $12.98 (available in 15 colors).
22. High-waisted linen shorts if you're looking to nail the whole "effortless chic" thing this spring and summer. Your jean shorts and mini skirts are gonna be jealous.
Get them from Boden for $85 (available in sizes 2–20/22 and in three lengths and four colors).
23. A tropical print wide-leg jumpsuit absolutely guaranteed to be the star of you vacation wardrobe — just add wedges and hoops.
Rebdolls is a Latinx- and woman-owned small business based in Harlem, NY!
Get it from Rebdolls for $59.99 (available in sizes M–5X).
24. A high-fashion-looking quilted bag with four components you can mix and match to give you serious bang for your buck: the bag itself, a smaller quilted pouch, a fabric strap, and a chain strap. Rock them all together, wear the bag with just one of the straps, or use the chain strap to turn the pouch into a wristlet.
Promising review: "The bag came just as pictured! It also comes with a dust bag (huge plus for storing). I love that the chain, coin bag, and shoulder strap are all removable. This bag is really chic and classy for on-the-go errands while looking effortlessly fashionable. It’s nice that there are no logos on it too, so that it has a clean look overall. I love this bag so much, definitely worth purchasing!" —Samantha Vo
Get it from Amazon for $35.98 (available in six colors).
25. An on-trend boxy houndstooth sweater-vest for a fashion-influecer-y look that still feels quirky and fresh. It's also versatile enough to layer or rock on its own, depending on your mood and/or the season!
Back in the good old days/fashion pocket universe that was 2009, I had some favorite Forever 21 sweater-vests that I adored (YES, sometimes I wore them with the aforementioned trilby, okay?!?), and I was definitely in the market for one once they started to come back in style. I love the black-and-white versions that are everywhere, but I absolutely cannot resist anything purple. The lavender hue feels so fresh and different, and pairs great with all washes of denim. I'm usually between a medium and a large, and I ordered a large so it was extra cozy and there would be room to layer. It's the ideal 2022 wardrobe item because it's comfy enough to work from/chill out at home in, but also can be dressed up all sorts of ways when you do go out. So far, I've worn it by itself with shorts, over a white tee with jeans, and over a button-down/under a moto jacket. The layering possibilities are endless!
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in women's sizes S–L and in 15 colors).
26. A polo midi dress to make rocking the colorblock trend a breeze — and possibly also make you crave a glass of pink lemonade.
Get it from Solid & Striped for $248 (available in sizes XS–XL and two colors).
27. A tartan-talizingly cute double-breasted blazer, which could easily pass for triple the price and will make even distressed denim look super polished. It's also serving some very cool Clueless vibes, so I just had to ~Cher~ it with ya.
Promising review: "The fit of the blazer is a little big but I like mine to fit that way. Great quality and I get a ton of compliments when I wear it." —Vida Fashionista
Get it from Amazon for $48.99+ (available in sizes XS–XL and in eight prints).
28. A glam faux-leather wrap midi skirt radiating corner office energy and sure to make you strut into work like you mean it.
29. A Lele Sadoughi x LoveShackFancy metallic floral headband for anyone interested in repping two It labels at once for under $100. That + channelling your inner Blair Waldorf = irresistable.
Get it from Shopbop for $85.
30. A sleek plaid bodycon dress sure to have everyone at work or on the weekends ~checking~ you out. Your plain pencil skirt simply won't be able to compete.
Promising review: "This is one of my absolute favorite work dresses of all time! I feel like Joan from Mad Men every time I wear it. I get compliments every time. This dress looks even better with a skinny belt, and the mock-turtleneck collar is a classy detail that pulls it all together. The fabric is stretchy enough to hug your curves, but not cheap looking. It's thin enough to be comfortable, lightweight and breathable, while still being opaque and good quality. Oh, and it doesn't wrinkle!! I'm usually a size US 14/16, and the 2XL fits me like a glove." —Rebecca
Get it from Amazon for $26.99+ (available in sizes XS–5XL and in 15 colors and prints).
31. A bright square-handle clutch, because every look could use a pop of color, and this cutie's size and handle make it way more practical than a typical clutch.
Promising review: "The cutest bag for spring and summer! I got the neon berry color. Great size." —Brittany86
Get it from Express for $68 (available in three colors).
32. Stunning and strappy butterfly-embellished heels to have your feet looking literally fly and that are way more fun than plain neutral pumps. That party dress you've already worn 10 times is about to undergo a ~metamorphosis~.
And yes, now I have the Hilary Duff song stuck in my head. Anyway, these cuties are from a Black woman-owned, Houston-based small business!
Promising review: "These heels are so cute! They look just like the picture and I was a little worried about them being too high, but they’re not as high as it seems. The color is like exactly as pictured and the straps are long enough if your legs are a little wider." —Brittany W.
Get them from Lilly's Kloset for $48 (available in sizes 6–10 or in green and sizes up to 11 here).
33. Stretchy and iconic bell-bottom jeans reviewers think have all the right ~bells and whistles~ to be a bold style statement that's actually wearable. They come in lots of cool colors, too!
Promising review: "At first, I thought they were too tight, but they stretched nicely throughout the day! I’m extremely pleased. They look so good, and I’ve gotten many compliments! The fit is great, they’re gorgeous ESPECIALLY with heels, and I couldn’t be any happier" —Kate Sweets
Get them from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in sizes S–XXL and in 12 colors).
34. A posh yellow tweed blazer that's exactly the shot of sunshine your professional wardrobe needs. It'd be totally dreamworthy with denim, too.
I got an Instagram ad for this the other day and it's not an exaggeration to say I've thought about it almost every day since....
Get it from Ann Taylor for $169 (available in sizes 00–14 regular and 00–16 petite).
35. Super pretty and spring-ready floral sweatpants you'll actually want to wear — *gasp* — outside of the house.
36. Stylish and slouchy faux-suede heeled boots boasting a soft lining and hardcore Serena van der Woodsen energy. You wouldn't even mind Gossip Girl spotting you in 'em.
Promising review: "Mind blown at the quality and comfort 👍🏼. I usually wear a 5.5 but sometimes order a 6 in boots to accommodate for my athletic calves. The 6 is a little too big, however, these are the absolute most comfortable boots I’ve ever ordered. I’ll use a sole insert to help with the fit. The quality of these boots is outstanding — close comparison to my $800 designer boots! I’m absolutely shocked and pleasantly surprised! There is also a super soft interior finish that makes these great for wearing barefoot. The blue in the photos is a bit brighter than what they look like in person. I will be ordering additional colors! Outstanding!" —Amanda S. Battistoni
Get them from Amazon for $69.88+ (available in sizes 5–11 and in 14 colors).
37. A knockout brocade duster (complete with roomy pockets!!) that you can wear as a coat for a dressy event, as a jacket open over jeans, or cinched into an oh-so-fabulous dress. Hey now, hey now, this is what high fashion dreams are made of.
