Do you ever look in your closet and feel like you don’t have anything to wear, even when you have a ton of things in your closet?! I used to be so guilty of this, until I got ahold of staple versatile pieces that I could rewear over and over again. Some of the versatile pieces I’m about to share have lasted me for years! They’re quality and items I can wear day or night, casual or dressy. I went through my closet and compiled the ultimate summer clothing must haves you need in your closet! I think you’ll will thank me later. š
Check out my latest post about the best shoes to shop for summer HERE & the must have belt bags for summer!
Summer Must Have List
Orange Tie Back Top & Agolde Boyfriend Jeans
If you’ve been here a while, you know I’m more of a neutrals girl. However, the moment I spotted this orange top I had to have it! The color is stunning for Summer, and the tie back detail is too cute. I sized up to a small for length, the straps also adjust! Grab it HERE.
I’m a sucker for a great pair of jeans, and after months of seeing people rave about these jeans, I finally caved. This was about 6 months ago! I won’t lie, I was nervous to size down (everyone said they ran big) because they’re raw denim and were a splurge. However, to this day, these are my most worn jeans! They’re comfortable, chic, more of a high rise, and easy to wear with literally anything. If you’re looking for a great pair of boyfriend style jeans, get these! You will not regret it and you can get years of use out of them!
Abercrombie Traveler Dress & lululemon Belt Bag
TRAVELER DRESS
I officially own this dress in multiple colors and wear it at least once a week! The Abercrombie Traveler dress is a total closet staple for summer. It essentially has built in spanx (seriously though!), and built in biker shorts. Not to mention the hidden shorts have a pocket for your phone!! So you can easily wear this on a walk, to a workout, or running errands. It’s also great to travel in (hence the name ‘traveler’ dress). It runs true to size and the straps adjust and can be made into a racerback, as well.
BELT BAG
I own this belt bag in 3 colors, and I wear it all of the time! It’s the best under $40 bag that you can wear crossbody or as a belt bag. I use it daily when walking the dogs and often when I’m running errands. It makes for a great gift, as well! The colors sell out extremely fast, so if there’s on you see that you like, grab it quickly.
Rails White Button Down + Levi 501 Shorts
TOP
This Rails white button down top is one of my favorite closet staples! It’s great year round, can be styled with shorts or in the winter under a leather jacket or faux fur vest. I knew investing in this would be worth every penny! Rails is known for making high quality, comfortable, everyday clothes. This top is a must! It runs true to size.
SHORTS
I love the Levi 501 shorts so much, that I own 3 different washes! This pair is currently ON SALE for $29! I just added another wash to my cart. I’ve had these for 2 years, and they wash well. I wash with like colors and hang dry. Size up, they do run a big snug. Grab them HERE.
Show Me Your Mumu Denim Romper
ROMPER
I bought this romper last summer and wore it so much! I was thrilled to see it was restocked this year. It’s the perfect romper for Summer. I can totally see wearing it to a July 4th BBQ, too! It’s a splurge, but it’s made extremely well and can be worn all the time. I styled it with sneakers, but it’s also great with sandals and wedges! It runs true to size and does have some stretch. Grab it HERE.
Gianni Bini Cropped Tank + Agolde Boyfriend Jeans + $59 Heeled Sandals
I grabbed this tank earlier this year, and have worn it a TON! It fits perfectly, is a great length and can easily be dressed up or down. I’m wearing a size small (I sized up for length) and it fits perfectly. This one is a summer staple! Grab it HERE.
BOYFRIEND JEANS DETAILS SEEN ABOVE
HEELED SANDALS WITH CHAIN DETAIL
I won’t lie, these are my favorite purchase of the season!! I was shopping at Norstrom and was not looking for these, but when I found them and saw the price tag, I knew I had to try them on. They were SO comfortable (which shocked me, and by the way I have insanely sensitive feet) and I even wore them walking around Vegas! They come in 4 colors and run true to size. They’re great with jeans, shorts, and dresses. I say get them, you won’t regret it! Grab them HERE.
Amazon Lavender Blazer + Agolde Parker Shorts
This is the blazer of my dreams! Ok but really… I love how it fits and feels. The color is great for Summer, and you can totally style it for work with business pants or a dress, or elevate your casual summer shorts like I did above. It’s under $50 and is available in a ton of colors. I’m wearing a small, which is typically my true size at Amazon. Tap HERE to shop!
I have had these shorts for years and continue to go back to them! They’re so comfortable, chic and fit perfectly. The denim is more of a raw denim, so I recommend sizing up one size. I LOVE these, and own them in several washes. Grab them HERE.
American Eagle Black Jumpsuit
JUMPSUIT
I ordered this jumpsuit 2 weeks ago, and have worn it 3 times already! It’s a closet staple that you can literally wear anywhere. It’s easy to dress up or down, and is super affordable! This jumpsuit runs true to size. Grab it HERE.
