Promising review: "I have so many thoughts about this! This headband is so darling and is just what I’ve been looking for. I’ve been searching high and low for a trendy 'hatband' a la Duchess Kate, and this was perfect. The quality is better than expected and such a great price point! Looking forward to styling it for an upcoming wedding. But mostly, I definitely recommend!" —Rachael Mutschler

Promising review: "I don't give a lot of 5-star reviews, but I cannot rave enough about these scarves! I've purchased a total of three now and will absolutely continue to purchase. I'm a big believer that a scarf like this can turn a so-so outfit into something that pops, and a casual outfit into something a bit classier. I work in a business casual setting, and find that when I pair one of these with a basic tee and a blazer, I get a LOT of compliments on my outfit. The texture/feel of the scarf is quite smooth and does have a very silky feel. As far as I've seen, these do not come with care instructions, but so far I've only needed to use my fabric steamer to take out the creases (they come folded in a clear plastic sleeve). Because this seems to be a poly blend, as opposed to real silk, I think I'd be safe to hand wash these with delicate detergent (like Woolite or Ecover) and dry flat." —Katie W.
Size up if you want an oversized look!
Get it from Amazon for $34.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and two washes).
Promising review: "SO CUTE! Looks and fits just like the photo. The denim is super soft and worn-in which is perfect for the oversized fit because it prevents it from looking bulky. Reminds me of something you'd find at Free People but for a fraction of the cost. Very happy with my purchase." —Olivia Saccameno
Get it from Amazon for $20.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and seven colors, both polkadot and solid).

Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and nine colors and styles).
Promising review: "Love it! It's super cute and fits perfectly, even though I normally wear a size small top and medium or large bottoms. I ordered the medium and it's perfect. Love the colors and it's really comfortable." —devilangel
It has an internal drawstring at the waist so you can cinch it to fit you perfectly!
Get it from Amazon for $11.87+ (available in sizes XS–XL and nine colors)
Promising review: "When I got the skirt out of the bag, I can’t believe how soft it feels. It feels soft and a nice mix of velvety and suede feel. The fabric is smooth and has a slight luster. The skirt has the row of buttons that are all useable, they’re not sewn shut so you can undo the buttons. It also has a drawstring that you can tighten from the inside and tie it if the waist is loose. The quality of this skirt is much more that I expected from the price, I’d likely purchase more different colors in the future." —Maggie

Promising review: "This is THE MOST COMFORTABLE DRESS!!! I love the brightness of the color and the V-neck is cut so perfectly. The dress is pretty versatile because I can dress it up with boots and a collared blouse or dress it down with a comfortable t-shirt and tennis shoes. I love the cute pockets in the front of the dress. All in all it is a win for style and comfort." —Jessica

Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and nine colors and patterns).
Promising review: "I am always skeptical buying body suits like this because usually the torso isn’t long enough or the buttons are cheap and snap open when you sit down, but that isn’t the case for this one. I absolutely LOVE this item. Wore it with a jean skirt to a Christmas party and it fit wonderfully all night. Not cheaply made or anything! Seriously such a good buy." —Sydney Henn
Get it from Express for $15.
Promising review: "Super basic mask but the pattern makes it fun! Covers everything and is useful." —Gigiknowsbest
Get it from Amazon for $17.90+ (available in 12 colors).
Promising review: "The purse came folded flat (which I was initially concerned about but it opens up beautifully thanks to faux leather), so now I know it can be stored the same way without damaging the bag. I need another purse like I need a hole in the head, so the bonus of said purse taking up almost no space in the closet is an unexpected win and will probably result in me purchasing additional in other colors because the quality is great for the price point and I love the unfussy style." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "These tops are lovely and look great either under a sweater or jacket or alone with shorts, slacks or skirt. Feminine and sexy. Great fit, not too tight or loose. I got one in black and one in animal print!" —bjmq
Get a set of six pairs from Amazon for $7.99.
Promising review: "These fancy socks were made of a fabric that left me pleasantly surprised. I expected some thin, flimsy stuff that snagged as soon as I took it out of the package, kind of like cheap knee-high stockings. That was not what these were made of. They are made of a sheer, slightly shimmery mesh that is supremely durable and very comfortable! They looked great on and stayed up, didn't slip down. Also there was a reinforced toe and heel, which added comfort and strength. I wore the dotted pair to a wedding and I was a trend setter! A good deal, too, there were seven pairs in the pack." —southtexasgal

Get it from Amazon for $20.99 (available in sizes S–XL and 17 colors and styles)
Promising review: "I love it. It’s soft and good quality especially for the price. Usually a sweater/duster is a bit more expensive than a traditional fitting sweater so I wasn’t sure what to expect as far as quality but I’m very happy. Zero complaints. I’m excited to wear it this fall/winter!" —Tabitha
Get it from Amazon for $31.59+ (available in sizes S–3XL and 19 colors and styles, some with zippers, some with buttons).
Promising review: "I got this jacket for my girlfriend because she’s been wanting something like this for a while. The ones in stores range around $60, so she never got it. She loves it because of how soft it is and keeps raving about the pockets and just how overall comfortable it is." —Chris
Get it from Amazon for $15.50+ (available in sizes 0X–3X and five colors).
Promising review: "Fantastic buy! What a steal!! This is such a nice dress. It’s definitely a midi length with good lining so it’s not see through. The fabric seems pretty durable, and there is a good amount of stretch at the waistline." —Carley

Get it from Amazon for $21.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and 22 colors).
Promising review: "Oh-my-goodness. This dress exceeded my expectations. I bought the blue/green color and it’s beautiful. The best part is I can adjust the waist/size of the dress. And, if you wanna give yourself some extra room after wearing it for a bit or eating a big meal, lol, just adjust the belt. It’s a tie belt, so you are in control of how loose or tight you want it... BUY this dress." —Amazon Customer

Get a five-pack from Amazon for $8 (available in grey tones and rose tones). You can also get a 12-pack of assorted colors for $10.99.
Promising review: "Since I grew up in the '90s I have been resistant to the resurgence of scrunches, but these scrunches were perfect to ease me in to the idea. They are the perfect size. They are not the big fluffy scrunches. I also have a lot of hair and have found they help me not get the typical head ache I typically get when having my hair up. They also hold up well. I have been using the same one for weeks now and they elastic and fabric have held up well." —Laila
