Sometimes, you just need a little treat! We put together a list of things that will brighten up your day, all under 100 dollars. From SPF MVPs to crisp button downs, you’ll find something on this list will help set you for the best summer yet.
I’m really hard on my summer clothes. It makes it hard to justify spending a ton on my basics, because I want clothes that I don’t mind sweating in or getting wet out of the pool. Luckily, unlike fall, the fabrics of the season are pretty affordable. There are so many great linen options, like this lilac Quince button down, this cobalt blue Gap blouse, or this steel blue COS t-shirt.
The right accessories can make an outfit feel that much more like you. And nothing is more personal than jewelry. But a fun statement piece can take a dress from forgettable to completely unique. I love these chunky resin bangles or this knobby beaded necklace from Mango. When it’s too hot to wear your hair down, it’s time to let your earrings shine like these gold flowers from Zara.
I love these loafer-y sandals from Mango, which remind me of JW Anderson’s iconic loafer bag. They’re equal parts business and beach. What more can you ask for this summer? Leather flip flops are everywhere, but you probably haven’t seen them in a baby blue like this Sam Edelman pair.
Don’t neglect your beauty drawer! I always wear less makeup in the summer, but that means the products I do use have to be really great. The Westman Atelier cream blush stick will give you that freshly flushed look, even if you’re more of an indoor girl. Don’t forget the SPF! When I’m faking a tan, I love the Supergoop tinted moisturizer. If you’re feeling a little bougie, the Prada hydrating lip balm is a fun splurge. As you would expect from Miuccia, the packaging is gorgeous.
