1. An asymmetrical ruched satin skirt that'll have you dressed to impress for any special occasion. It comes in rich jewel tones, neutrals, and even floral patterns that'll have you looking pretty at any summer soirée.
2. A versatile bodysuit tank reviewers say is like a cross between shapewear and a swimsuit in all the best ways — it's stretchy, supportive, and comfy with very light compression. It's another must-have basic because you can slip this on under jeans, a skirt, or shorts and go as casual or dressy as you like with it!
Promising reviews: "TikTok-trending bodysuit! Buy it before it sells out!! Stretchy material and not see through!! One of my favorite bodysuits I own!" —Gabriela
"Bought this bodysuit in three colors: white, brown, and olive green. The brown is definitely more of a burnt orange. These are amazing!! I don’t even bother wearing a bra with them, because the support is so nice. Since I am short, the bottom part is a little longer, but I don’t mind it because then I don’t have to deal with chafing. I’m definitely buying more colors! I’ve worn these with shorts, joggers, and jeans. Worn to date night and a Chicago Cubs game when it was 90 degrees! The material is breezy, so I don’t get hot. Think of like a bathing suit/workout tank material. So it allows for easy breathing and does not get hot. A summer staple!" —Ms. Martinez
Get it from Amazon for $26.99 (available in sizes S–XXL and 24 colors).
3. A sleek abstract-print bodycon midi if you're embracing bright colors and bold prints this summer. Since it's long, you could easily wear this into the fall, donning a jacket on chillier days and rocking a full sleeveless look when temps rise.
Promising review: "Looks expensive and feels amazing! I wore it to a farewell brunch for a wedding and received a lot of compliments! It’s a very soft, thick material so great summer-to-fall transition dress." —Kyle P
"This product is very thick and good quality for the price. I bought it from seeing someone on TikTok wear it and it looks exactly the same. You could even wear this in fall with the right layering pieces." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $21.20+ (available in sizes S–XL and 26 styles, including a shorter style).
4. A lightweight two-piece blouse and shorts set, because matching sets are your friend if you're always running late and stress out over putting together an outfit! This is *sooo* lightweight and breezy so you won't break a sweat while running to meet friends — and obviously, you can wear the shorts and top separately too, so you're getting multiple new outfit options here!

See it on TikTok!

Promising review: "This top is soooo cute! The top where the shoulders are are elastic so they're stretchy and will stay wherever you place them. The wrap tie is super great as well. It's a lightweight material but it's not see-through at all. I wore with a strapless bra but you can easily do without a bra." —Lizette A.
Get it from Amazon for $22.99 (available in sizes XS–XL and in 35 colors).
6. An adorable lace mini dress with crochet detailing at the waist, a pleated skirt, and a tied keyhole back — perfect for summer date nights and more.
Promising review: "This dress is REALLY pretty in person. I like it a lot. I don't think there is any way to wear a bra with it but the material is thick enough that it's not necessary. The back is really beautiful. You must tie it right to get it to lay flat." —Connor McKay
"This dress is beautiful. I saw it on TikTok and took a risk purchasing, and I’m so happy I did. I’m very happy with this product." —Natalia
Get it from Amazon for $30.95+ (available women's sizes XS–XXL and in 27 colors).
7. A cover-up set with a matching crop top that'll transform you from an average beachgoer to a seaside goddess come to bless everyone with her presence. This set has "Insta-worthy vacation pics" written all over it.
Note that there's no padding in the top, but the straps are adjustable.

Promising review: "Viral outfit. I ordered this outfit for a last-minute Zoom bday party I ended up planning and it was a HIT! I ended up posting my outfit on TikTok and my video ended up getting 12,000 (and counting) views. Haha super comfy, my only issue was because I'm shorter, the train kept dragging but I'm sure if you wear heels (I didn't, I had slides 😂) this shouldn't be an issue. I've never felt more confident!" —Nix Cee
Get it from Amazon for $30.99+ (available in sizes XS–3XL and 25 colors).
8. A flow-y pair of palazzo pants to let your legs ~breathe~ while still maintaining a professional look for work, but they're great for casual wear too — especially with how many fun colors they come in! On days when you're really tempted to reach for leggings but have to look a little more put together, these are the perfect option.
Note that some reviewers mention these run small, so consider sizing up if you're not sure which size to get.
Promising reviews: "I saw these on TikTok, and had to try them out. I am short, so I was expecting them to be long, but they are very long. I am just gonna get them tailored. I am buying more though because they are absolutely beautiful! I've gotten so many compliments on them!" —Bretta Little
"I don't usually buy clothes from Amazon but oh boy was I surprised with these pants! Good quality, does not feel cheap, and isn't see-through. What I loved most is that being 5'2, I could never wear palazzo pants before as they would always be wayyyy too long. These ones are perfect and do not even touch the floor when I am barefoot. With a small heel, they are even better! The beige ones make you look so chic. Good for the office or for a chic summer look, I need to go buy more ASAP." —Lili
Get it from Amazon for $33.99 (available in sizes XS–2X, including short sizes, and 32 styles).
9. A puff-sleeve maxi dress in case you're on the cottagecore side of TikTok and want to embrace more of that aesthetic. Plus, if you've been wanting to film one of those videos of you running on a beach to the sound of Taylor Swift's "August" and need a dress for it, well, here ya go.
Prime members: You can try before you buy!
Promising review: "I saw this on TikTok and fell in love with the dress! This dress is very cottagecore and fits well. The dress also has a slip under, so that it isn’t too sheer, and the sizing is correct for the most part (depending on your bust as the top half of the dress is made of 'stretchy' material). I would definitely recommend this dress! Buy it if you’re thinking about it." —Jin
Get it from Amazon for $37.99 (available in XS–XL and in 33 colors).
10. A set of bestselling ribbed crop tops — fair warning, you'll probably end up buying multiple sets for more ~color options~ once you witness how cute and versatile they are for yourself. You can style this warm-weather basic SO many ways, and *many* people are drawing comparisons to Free People...at a fraction of the price.
Note that these run small, so consider sizing up for a more relaxed fit.
See them in this TikTok!
Promising review: "I love them! The colors are as pictured with the little bit of distressed, faded look in areas. Looks like they came from Free People! The neckline lands mid to high chest area, and the armpits scoop in like a scuba tank style. Love love love, want it in more colors." —Amber
Get a pack of three from Amazon for $28.98 (available in sizes XS–XXL and dozens of styles, including two-packs and three-packs).
11. A strappy, classic bodycon mini dress you can pull on for a night out on the town — it's sexy, stretchy, and ultra-breathable (so you'll feel hot but not sweaty-hot).
Promising reviews: "I am OBSESSED with this dress! It is hot hot HOT!!! It’s super comfortable!" —JJSchmal
"Like many others I bought this after seeing it on someone on TikTok. Holy cow, I was not disappointed. In fact, my husband and I had a cocktail hour before our wedding and I ended up wearing this during it! It hugged my curves, is comfortable as hell…a total winner, especially for the price!" —Brittany Erin
Get it from Amazon for $32.99 (available in sizes S–XL and in 13 colors).
12. An open-back stunner featuring a smocked bodice, ruffles, and a loose, dreamy fit that'll keep you feeling comfy *and* cute on that upcoming vacay.
See it on TikTok!
Promising review: "I have been wanting this same dress from Free People but it was $118. I was leery about this considering it was much cheaper in cost but it is PERFECT! Great length too. Keep in mind you can't wear a bra with it and if you are larger-busted (I'm small, an A cup) then it may fit totally different. It's thin and lightweight but with skin-colored undies, I had no problem with lines or visibility. I'm considering buying it in another color. 😍" —Bullitt02797
Get it from Amazon for $35.99 (available in sizes S–XL and in 28 colors).
13. A ribbed halter top with a built-in, no-underwire bra, a useful basic for days when you're *really* not feeling like putting on a bra but need a lil' extra support. Its cropped fit and solid color means it'll pair well with all your high-waisted skirts, pants, and shorts, and you won't be distracted by an uncomfortable bra poking you in the side.
You can see how to style this cute top on TikTok here and a review from one creator here.
Klassy Network is a woman-owned business that sells stylish blouses, swimwear, eyewear, and their well-known Brami top, aka a top that provides amazing support and doesn't require a bra underneath!
Promising review: "I totally love these Brami Halter tops. Being a cup size C; not having to wear a bra was almost impossible for me. With the Brami I am so happy that I do not have to use a bra, and it still keeps my boobs in place. These are so versatile that I used them everywhere, all the time, even to do yoga. I just love them!" —Klassy Network Customer
Get it from Klassy Network for $25.60 (originally $32; available in sizes XXS–3XL and three colors). And check out more of their Brami styles for more options!
14. A popular pair of high-waisted trousers for a look that's polished and professional while still breathable enough for summer heat and humidity. The best part, though? They're *ridiculously* comfy thanks to the baggy design and elastic waist, so you might find yourself throwing these on with a T-shirt for Sunday brunch.
Promising reviews: "I originally saw these pants on Tiktok and am always looking for cute work pants so decided to order and I’m so glad I did. They are super cute and will be comfortable to wear all day. They are stretchy and not constricting at all!" —Carly Imler
"I wore these to a conference, and they were great. Stays where you want them. Breathable but high quality material. Never wrinkled. And very cute with a top tucked in!" —AECastle
Get them from Amazon for $27.05 (available in sizes XS–3XL, in sets of two, and 38 colors).
15. A drawstring bodycon dress that's versatile, since you can sport it on its own or throw on a jacket, cardigan, or flannel button-down on chillier days. It's casual enough for everyday wear but cute enough for going out at night, too.
Promising reviews: "I finally bought this dress after seeing it all over TikTok and HOLY SMOKES. I cannot believe how universally [good it looks on people]. It's absolutely stunning!" —Catherine Thriveni
"This dress is amazing! The fabric is so soft and silky but also has structure and because the sides are ruched, I can adjust it to the perfect length, which means a lot when you're only 5'1". The ruching allows me to control the amount of fabric gathered in the tummy and behind areas. To sum it all up, I LOVE the dress and plan on purchasing at least two more in the army green and the brown because this style dress can also be worn in the fall and spring months with a basic or colored denim jacket and a cute pair of boots or booties!" —Tonya
Get it from Amazon for $33.99 (available in sizes S–XL and in 26 colors/styles).
16. A vibrant '90s-esque patterned button-down top thin and lightweight enough for warmer days. It's (literally) buttoned up enough for the office, but the bright, funky print will have you wearing this to festivals, brunch dates, shopping trips, and more. This top is the definition of a "compliment magnet" — cue everyone's shocked faces when they hear it's from Amazon dot com.
Reviewers recommend sizing up!
Promising reviews: "The shirt of the summer!!! This shirt is super breathable and soft. Love the way it feels on my skin. The colors are fun and vibrant. Love it!!! I recommend if you are not afraid of colors. I got a size XL because I was looking to get the oversized fit. My regular size is L. This shirt is great for casual occasions and street fashion. Can’t wait to go to a festival with it on or a concert as well." —kathiusca Livingston
"This shirt doesn't have a lot of stretch so I'd advise you to size up. I usually wear a XL in shirts like this, but I decided to get a 3X and that 3X fits just right and gives me room to tie it up in the front if I wanted to make it stylish. But the shirt is very vibrant and colorful and looks just like the picture. I saw it on TikTok, which made me want to get it." —Keia
Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in sizes XS–3XL and 28 other styles).
17. Some cute colored shorts made from durable, 100% cotton twill with an elastic waist in the back for some stretch. Available in sizes up to 6XL, these are a staple you can mix and match with all your favorite tees, tanks, and crop tops this summer and beyond, since they're built to last!

18. A vintage-inspired bustier for a chic and sexy basic you'll be mixing and matching all summer long — it'll look incredible whether you decide to throw on jeans, shorts, or a skirt.
Promising review: "I purchased this corset after watching a TikTok video of another midsized girl talking about how great it is. It did not disappoint! It fits nicely. I got lots of compliments on it! Someone else pointed out to me that the fabric looks expensive and just like another bustier listed on PrettyLittleThings for over twice the price." —Elizabeth
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in sizes 00–20 and in 20 colors).
19. A breathable chiffon pleated off-the-shoulder option begging to be worn to that summer wedding you still need a dress for. The movement of the ruffles anytime you walk or dance will be simply *chef's kiss*.
You can wear this on the shoulders too!
Promising review: "I want to say this was the best last-minute dress I’ve bought on a whim. I had a wedding yesterday that I had nothing to wear and saw a TikTok of a girl showing dresses for weddings, and this one popped up. Saw that it was next day shipping, and it was here three hours before I had to leave. 😅 Needless to say Amazon saved the day. About the dress, this is the perfect wedding guest dress. I got so many compliments all night! If you’re wondering if it’s worth it, I say, this is your sign to buy it! GET THE DRESS!" —Amazon user
Get it from Amazon for $37.60 (available in sizes XS–XL and 37 colors).
20. Cute running shorts drawing comparisons to pricier brands like Lululemon, Nike, and Under Armour in terms of quality. They're designed with a stretchy elastic waistband, soft and breathable fabric, and even deep zipper pockets for holding your phone and other small items. Workouts aside, these would be great for everyday summer wear!
Promising reviews: "DO NOT WALK….RUN! Better than all my Lululemon shorts EASILY! These shorts look great while being so comfortable. I do CrossFit and I felt covered the whole time, but didn’t feel like I was being suffocated, the fabric is so breathable the zipper is a perfect size, I love everything about these shorts. I’ve told everyone who will listen, these are THE shorts everyone needs." —MadelineVanHoose
"I bought these because I saw a TikTok where she said they were just like Lulu lemon shorts. And let me tell you, they are perfect. They are high-waisted, which I love, but they are still long enough to cover up your behind. They have cute detailing with a zipper pocket and lining under the shorts. I have no complaints at all. I’ve had them for a while and they are still in perfect shape!" —Olivia Guerndt
Get them from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in sizes XS–3X and 35 colors)
21. Or some vibrant, stretchy high-waisted shorts with a smocked waistband and built-in briefs for added coverage. They're available in the *prettiest* colors, so if you've been looking for cute activewear to motivate you, these might be just what you need to get moving this summer.
Promising review: "I usually buy all of my authentic wear from Lululemon, but I saw these shorts on TikTok and had to try them on! I bought a bright green pair and the gray. I will ABSOLUTELY be buying these in every color! They are so comfortable and are the perfect length/fit. Highly recommend purchasing these. They are a great price as well. :)" —Callieend
Get them from Free People for $30 (available in sizes XS–XL and in 26 colors).
22. A twist-front tube top that'll look *so* chic paired with your high-waisted jeans and shorts, and reviewers say the heavy ribbed material makes it feel way more expensive than it is.
Promising review: "I saw so many videos of this on TikTok!! It did not disappoint. It’s super cute for this summer! It’s a must-have!!!!!! I’m wearing a large and it has a fit that's amazing." —Tania Zabala
Get it from Amazon for $21.99 (available in sizes S–L and in 18 colors).
23. A pleated tennis skirt begging to be worn with a sweater vest, collared shirt, or tank top for some cute, preppy flair.
Promising review: "I LOVE this skirt. I found it off a review on TikTok. The skirt fit like a glove, with room to stretch (not tight or ill fitting). I’m really happy with this product because it’s hard to find a product that accommodates my size and comes in good quality. If you were hesitant, I would suggest checking your measurements. I might buy more colors!" —Nick
Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in sizes 0–12 and in 43 colors and patterns).
24. A two-pack of cotton shorts — you'll want to stock up on these in multiple colors so you can mix and match with your T-shirts and crop tops for casual outings and lazy days indoors (when you're hiding inside from the heat).
Reviewers say these run small, so consider sizing up! Though they're labeled as workout/athletic shorts on Amazon, reviewers say they wouldn't recommend getting these for that purpose, since they're a thicker cotton material.
Promising reviews: "So stinkin’ cute. I saw these on TikTok and had to get them. They’re so soft and they look so chic. You can wear them to lounge in or workout. I personally like wearing athletic spanks underneath the shorts but they still look nice with them!" —Lena Mei
"These shorts are so cute and a great addition to your summer must-haves! Very lightweight but not too thin. Tacked hem roll too! Wash and wear easy as can be. Great purchase!" —Mamaw Wade
Get them from Amazon for $27.99 (available in sizes S–XL and 10 color combos).
25. Some baggy overalls because all you need is a T-shirt or some other top to layer underneath them, and you'll be ready to roll out the door feeling cute *and* comfy as heck.
Promising reviews: "This is my second pair of these overalls. These are so breezy and comfy for summer. I personally like to take them out camping, as even when it's hot and sticky out, I don't feel like my clothes are sticking to me or constricting me. Plus, it's a nice way to enjoy cooler clothing without having to wear shorts. They are a bit snug when pulling them up over the hips as there isn't much stretch to the fabric and no hip buttons, but once they're up over the hips, they're loose and flowy." —anonymous
"TikTok made me buy these, and I’m not mad. I love the color and simplicity. These are good for layering things underneath or on top, wearing even in a heat wave as they’re airy, and I prefer these to shorts. There is so much room in the stomach area, I bet these would be perfect maternity overalls." —Grace
Get it from Amazon for $26.99 (available in sizes S–3XL and in 21 colors).
26. An off-the-shoulder dress with an adorable scalloped eyelet hem and off-shoulder sleeves that'll let your skin breathe. Time to ~manifest~ yourself in this on a cruise ship with the wind in your hair ASAP.
Promising reviews: "I took a chance and ordered based on reviews. Always taking a risk ordering plus-size online especially an unfamiliar brand, but I’m glad I did. I wore this on an evening dinner cruise. It was such a comfortable dress. It stays off the shoulder pretty well. I was happy with this dress and the price." —Lydia B.
"Perfect summer dress. Purchased this after seeing a review on TikTok. This dress has good stretch. It fits well so I don’t have to worry about fussing with the sleeves to keep them off the shoulders. It is a little more sheer than I expected around the legs but overall I love this dress!" —Calissa Bonds
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in sizes XL–4X and in 19 colors)
27. An off-shoulder jumpsuit boasting over 34,000 5-star reviews for its superior comfort and ease of wear — just pull it on with your go-to sneaks or sandals, and you'll be ready for the day. Jazz it up with some accessories, and you've got a great going-out outfit, too! We love a piece that's comfy yet ~versatile~.
Promising reviews: "Super comfortable, feels like I'm getting away with wearing pajamas in public while looking incredibly cute. My plan is to live in all colors of these for the whole summer. Paired with heels, sandals, flats.. any type of shoe can change the look completely. I'll enjoy looking adorable and feeling cool in the hot weather." —LT
"Saw this on TikTok and decided to give it a try. The material is super stretchy and soft...oh so comfy. I could have gone down a size but then it wouldn't hang off the shoulder. Love love love this romper!" —Trisha Lynn
Get it from Amazon for $37.99 (available in sizes S–3XL and 35 colors/patterns).
28. A delightful cowprint slip dress with an a-moo-zing print worth flaunting on its own or pairing with a tee underneath for a unique and fun summer look. It's made of a breathable linen-cotton blend and has giant pockets for holding your phone, wallet, and snacks while you go about your busy day.
See it on TikTok!
Promising review: "Obsessed! perfect around the house, on errands, or out to dinner. I wore it three days in a row, beginning the day I got it in the mail." —Carly M.
Tuesday of California is a small biz that makes size-inclusive, sustainable clothing.

29. An 100% chiffon tie-back mini dress that'll make you feel like a princess, with three-quarter lantern sleeves (which can be worn up or off-shoulder), a ruched bust, and smocked waist.
Promising reviews: "I LOVE IT!!! The waist part of this dress is everything. I’m an absolute sucker for poofy sleeves. I love that they’re gauzy and translucent. Dress has a slip attached inside for the body part. I can wear this any day my mood needs elevated!" —R
"10/10 one of my favorite dresses I’ve bought on Amazon. Saw it on TikTok and was a little nervous but it is amazing! The fit is great and I adore the color." —Rachel
Get it from Amazon for $39.49 (available in sizes XS–XXL and in 21 colors and prints).
30. A split-hem mini skirt in case you're *ready* to get some sun on your legs after hibernating all winter, though you could easily wear it over tights on chillier days this fall. It's basic enough to mix and match for countless outfits, with the split hem adding some fun flair.
Check out a TikTok of the split hem skirt in action.
Promising review: "This skirt came exactly as I would have hoped! Great stretch, which helped because I have a bigger butt and tiny waist, but still thick enough material where it was not see-through, could wear without tights, etc. Super cute with the slit, and I'm glad I bought it." —Jordyn Brown
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in sizes XXS–4XL and 34 styles).
