I’m the Office’s Resident Fashion Girl — Here’s What I’m Eyeing Ahead of Summer Starting at

I was once declared the resident “fashion girl” at our office because of my affinity for shopping. And since I have a reputation to uphold, I’m currently in the depths of a summer wardrobe refresh.

From my TikTok feed to the stylish people I see walking the streets of New York every day, there’s no shortage of fashion inspiration surrounding me as we lurch into the warmer months. But with all these new purchases comes a hefty bill — that is, unless you buy your new summer staples at Amazon.

I searched high and low for the best pieces to add into my warm-weather wardrobe this season, including classic linen dresses and on-trend straw bags, plus the Dr. Scholl’s wooden sandals that Carrie Bradshaw famously wore in season 4 of Sex and the City — a result of my binge-watching following its recent arrival on Netflix.

Read on to find jeans, accessories, and more fit for a summer fashionista starting at just $17.

Summer Staples Under $80 at Amazon

Prettygarden Summer Knit Blouse

Amazon


This delicate knit top is the perfect piece for those transitional spring days when the weather isn’t quite warm enough to go sleeveless and is too cold to go without a jacket. The lightweight, textured fabric and short-sleeved silhouette keeps you cool and is versatile enough to be styled in several ways for all-season wear. Whether paired with linen pants for dinner, trousers for the office, or jeans for a casual brunch, you can get creative with this neutral top — think of it as your elevated plain white tee.

But the best part about it is the decorative gold buttons and front pockets. They offer luxe touches that make it look expensive without the corresponding price tag.

“Every time I wear this sweater people think it’s a Chanel,” one shopper raved. “[It’s] so comfy, and it’s a great price.” And seeing as this top is only $38, I’d have to agree — in fact, I might even grab a few more colors. 

The Drop Frida Relaxed-Fit Jeans

Amazon


After seeing celebs like Katie Holmes and Jennifer Lopez consistently styling wide-leg jeans this past year, I’ve fully jumped on the baggy denim trend. So when I spotted this artfully slouchy pair from The Drop, I knew there was little that could be done to prevent me from adding them to my cart. 

What I love most about them is the decorative seamwork down the front panels of the pant legs, which separate this style from the monotonous medium-wash pairs that are on every site and in every store.

One shopper called this pair one of “the most comfortable jeans” they own before commenting on the superior style and construction. “They have some weight to [them], which helps the jeans drape nicely,” they added.

“I received so many compliments wearing them,” another reviewer shared. “Can’t wait to continue styling these and making them a staple in my wardrobe.” 

New Balance 515 V3 Sneaker

Amazon


The colorful sneaker trend is alive and well thanks to the Adidas Sambas craze and cohort of celebs wearing candy-colored shoes. So what better pair to add to your collection than these trendy New Balance sneakers with lemon-yellow details? They’re practically begging to be your go-to’s on sundrenched days.

The insoles of these shoes are cushioned with light EVA foam, making them extra easy to walk in during long days on the boardwalk or while strolling city streets. Shoppers note that this style tends to run big, so I’d recommend grabbing a size down when you order.

“I have tried so many sneakers over the years and was [pretty] much resigned that none would ever fit me right… and then I tried these,” one customer wrote. “I hope they keep making [these] forever (but plan to buy two extra pairs, just in case).”

If you thought my shopping spree stopped there, you’d be sorely mistaken. Keep scrolling for more fair-weather styles that I’m shopping ahead of summer.
