Bikini Tops

You probably have your swimsuits on deck for the season ahead, so if you're feeling brave wear it sans matching bottom with a pair of jeans. Some may call it risky, others will call it how to deal with 90-degree weather.

Shirred Blouses

Fashion girls have been opting for shirred and ruched blouses the past few seasons, but the trend is more popular than ever right now. In my book, I may even consider them a wardrobe basic. They pair easily with jeans, and all you really need is a few additional accessories to step things up.

Baby Tees

This Y2K style emerged last year and it's still every fashion girl's go-to casual look of choice in 2021. Brands like Marc Jacobs and Realisation have released multiple kitschy cute designs that have pretty much reached "cult" status.

Oversized Button-Ups

I love button-ups over dresses or seeing them paired with matching shorts, but my favorite (and the most effortless) look has to be with jeans. Whether you wear them as is or layered over a top, it's a no-brainer outfit.

Crochet Everything

You know we love a good grandma trend, and crochet is the one we can't seem to get enough of this season. Whether it's a cardigan, tank top, or bikini—the options are endless.

Clogs

We have to admit, clogs are growing on us. it may not be for everyone, but they're comfortable and will add a unique touch to any look. We particularly loved them paired with loose-fitted denim.

Funky Printed Tops

If you don't yet own a funky printed top, now's the time to buy one. It's an easy way to make a statement without really trying. No matter how wild the print, it'll always go with jeans, so why not make your morning dressing easy?

Modern Corsets

While the more costume-like corset came to trend for a little bit, it's the modernized version of corset tops that are here to stay. Brands like Miauu and Dion Le have reinvented the trend into a chic silhouette that can be worn every day.
