To me, J.Crew is one of the quintessential American summer brands. And while you can always rely on their sweaters and swimsuits, this season I’m loving their dresses and separates for delivering high style without the price tag. From block-printed dresses to drawstring pants, shop our summer J.Crew edit now.
All of the pieces I picked out would slip pretty effortlessly into your existing wardrobe, but they also work really easily with each other if you want to stock up on a few of them. I focused on complementary colors. Buttery yellows, an array of tans, and sophisticated creams and whites that will look great with your summer tan. A delicate white lace scalloped top, pretty yellow linen tie-pants, or these tan leather kitten heels all look as good sprinkled into your wardrobe as they do together!
You guys are loving dresses, so I’m starting with that! Easy to wear, east to throw on, they’re the ultimate instant outfit. Mixed media dresses are having a moment! J.Crew’s Mixy dress is stretchy cotton blend up top for the halter, breezy linen on bottom, and beautiful all over. Their limited edition block print shirtdress is a dressier option, and feels a little more unique. Look at those tassels! I’m also very obsessed with this crochet-y knit tank dress, complete with a fringe hem perfect for making an entrance wherever you’re going next.
Crochet and woven, natural materials play a big part in J.Crew’s summer collection. It’s the perfect addition to your wardrobe because it will go with everything! This textured short sleeve sweater tee pairs perfectly with your favorite white jeans or tie pants. This Montauk woven cardigan can be thrown over your favorite t-shirts. And for a personal favorite, this beaded raffia clutch is a perfect summer bag! The pearl paillettes really make it a true statement piece.
