Confession: I’m counting down the days until summer. I know any rational person would look at their calendar and say, “Honey, we’re still in spring,” but I don’t care. As much as I love everything about spring, it pales in comparison to summer for me. I could be partially biased toward summer being the best season. (After all, my zodiac sign is cancer, and I’m perpetually dreaming of living in a Cult Gaia resortwear campaign.) But really, it’s just because summer is the time of exploration in every sense of the word. It’s ideal for jetting off to Paris or the beach to serve some travel looks, but it’s also the best time to explore the terrains of your personal style. This season grants us permission to shed the layers, embrace more relaxed staples, and maybe even dip our toes into more risqué trends.
Basically, living your best life is easier when it’s hot outside. And while I could easily rant about the benefits of summer for days, I figured it’s more productive to round up the best summer clothing to get you excited about the new season. Ahead, you’ll find 60 affordable, trendy fashion finds for the summer. If these under-$100 pieces don’t get you excited, you can consider yourself an anti-summer person.
