I'm Making No Mistakes This Summer—38 Basics I Know I Won't Regret Buying
If you're anything like me, you probably have summer on the brain right now. Typically, the first thing I shop for when a new season is upon us is versatile basics. Then, I watch to see what trends actually stick before selecting statement items that pair well with my basics. I've been combing through all my favorite retailers to find standout picks that really win me over, and I had to share.
While Summer is usually the season I struggle to shop for most, I know having the right foundational items in my wardrobe will ensure I start the season on a good note. I'm currently planning for lightweight denim, linen pants, breezy blouses, and simple dresses. I found all this and more hiding atReplica Store, H&M, J.Crew, Shopbop, and more. I did the work to find the good stuff. The best part? Many of these items can be worn year-round, not just when it's 90°F and counting.
