Sometimes, the littlest things can make you happy. A new not-too-sticky lip gloss, sunglasses that feel like they complete your outfit or even your new go-to shirt you found at a steal. Our 100 under $100 is all about those kinds of little pleasures. Each and everyone was selected to bring joy to your summer, and all under $100.
Accessories are an easy way to switch up your styling and make your favorite outfits feel fresh again. Fashion jewelry is fun and low stakes but with a high impact. Bauble Bar’s rainbow tennis bracelet adds several pops of color, and their regular crystal one is pretty good too. Throwing on a pair of big gold oval hoops always looks good with a tan, and these fringed hoops bring an extra edge.
A big bag is a summer essential, whether you’re lugging it to the beach or to the airport. I love this Helen Jon canvas tote in white with a navy trim, and it’s even better if you add a monogram. Straw bags are always in season, like this woven & Other Stories bag or this Gap rainbow raffia tote. And make sure you have a bright waterproof pouch in your tote for max organization!
On the clothing front, there are more direct-to-consumer companies than ever making clothing more affordable. My newest discovery is Quince, which has lots of finds like these $40 linen pants, this $40 cotton crewneck with gorgeous ribbed detailing, and this $60 black maxi slip dress.
You can do a quick beauty refresh with some of our favorite essentials. The Merit Lip Oil gives you the perfect amount of color and shine but none of the icky stickiness. Ilia’s Fullest Volumizing mascara is so good people ask me if I’m wearing falsies when I’ve put it on. And of course, Westman Atelier’s Baby Cheeks blush stick is the multipurpose stick of your dreams. Just slide it on your cheeks, eyes, and even lips.
