Mango
Looking for a modern-feeling tank? Mango will have it. A forward pair of shorts? Yep, that’s there too. This is definitely a go-to store for many of our editors.
H&M

Pixie Market
Known for its fashion-forward selection of seasonal must-haves, Pixie Market stocks all of those compliment-worthy separates. But note that the price point is slightly higher than some of the others on this list.
