Tens of thousands of Amazon shoppers are wearing (and loving) these comfy undies, which have wide waistbands for midsection support with less constriction. They were designed to stay in place without bunching — the worst — and because they’re made of a soft, 95% cotton blend, they’ll feel like a dream against your skin.

Underwire bras don’t have to be uncomfortable — take it from the thousands of Amazon reviewers who adore this one. It was designed to be extra lightweight and smooth things out under your tops, and the convertible straps can be worn straight or crisscrossed. The lace detail makes it look more elevated than your standard T-shirt bra, and it comes in 12 lovely colors.

The ideal warm-weather uniform is comfortable, versatile and, of course, really cute. That’s why we’re nominating this fan-favorite maxi: It’s breezy enough to help keep you from overheating and would look equally polished with tennis shoes and a dressy pair of sandals. But most appealing? It has pockets!

With over 33,600 five-star reviews, these leggings have quite the fan base, and it’s no mystery why. They’re soft, stretchy and keep you cool — plus, reviewers can’t stop comparing them to a $98 pair from Lululemon.

This cover-up is an ideal wardrobe workhorse for a few reasons. It has that perfect, bum-covering length — it’s a bit longer in the back, which creates an attractive asymmetry. It also has three-quarter sleeves that give you sun protection but keep you from feeling too buttoned up. And it’s made of a gauzy rayon that filters the sun while staying breathable, so you can feel as cool as you look. Throw it on over your favorite swimsuit, or even pair it with jeans.

Made of a polyester-rayon-spandex blend, this tiered maxi is light, soft and flowy, with a nice amount of stretch and thickness to elevate comfort and prevent undergarments from showing through. The high waistline helps create a flattering silhouette, and the tiered design adds a little visual flair. There are 30 colors to choose from and it even has pockets. Who doesn’t love a dress with storage?

As the temperatures rise, having an airy, easy dress is key. The tiered style is cut to fall effortlessly over the body without clinging. Meanwhile, the puff sleeves balance out your upper body while keeping your arms covered stylishly. The flowy skirt ends with a darling ruffle hem that will look gorgeous with strappy sandals.

This striking top skims the body, and the cut flatters the arms and shoulders, fans say. Dress it up with a sparkly necklace or dangly earrings, or stay casual with sneakers and a zip-up hoodie. Best of all, this tank is a no-sweat-stain zone — it’s made of 95% cotton (the other 5% is spandex for a touch of stretch), so it’s more breathable and durable than other options.

J.Crew

While the alluring scoop neck and elegant ruching make this swimsuit great, it’s the little ties on each side that seal the deal for us. They’re adjustable, so you can customize them to find your perfect fit. Leave them loose for some classic coverage or tighten them up for days when you’re feeling a bit daring. Top it off with an oversized linen shirt for the ultimate beach look.

Old Navy

We can’t believe this sporty and flattering swim dress is under $20 now in pink and yellow — and just $21-$30 in a variety of other fun colors!

These slip-on sneaks are an unexpected celeb favorite (Martha Stewart is a well-known fan) and don’t often go on sale — so we suggest snapping them up now at nearly 40% off. The pillowy shoes have a lightweight cushioned midsole and a removable insole that’s podiatrist-certified, so you know you’ll get the support you need.
