A denim trucker jacket because every season deserves a tried and true staple that goes with literally everything. But, don't get it twisted. Every denim jacket isn't just a replica of another. This one features a trucker jacket silhouette and a distressed hem to set it apart from the others.
Promising review: "I received this jacket in the mail yesterday and I like it. I feel like to could be styled with dresses, jeans and trousers depending on the look you are trying to achieve. IMO, the fit is true to size. Also, in my opinion, there is not a lot of stretch. I ordered a 2 and that's what i normally order in shirts, jackets and blazers. The sleeves hit right at the wrist. My favorite part of the jacket is the raw hem at the bottom. I will probably also purchase the darker denim. I would recommend." —Lovin All Things DenimPrice: $41.94 (originally $69.90; available in sizes M–6X and two colors)

If You Straight-Up Refuse To Wear Shorts, Here Are 27 Pairs Of Pants That'll Still Keep You Feeling Cool
A pair of high-waisted trousers with wide legs and an elastic waistband to keep you looking stylish and comfortable. Flowy, medium in weight, and perfect for all seasons, catch me wearing every single color of these. (I mean literally adding these in a fun color to my cart rn.) A pair of cropped palazzo pants with a paper bag-style waist for days when you want to be comfortable but also look like you have your life together. P.S. The tie-waist belt is removable, so you can also wear these with your own belt or even skip it entirely! A pair of effortless gauzy pants because it's time to try something sophisticated and uber lightweight. These will make you look and feel super stylish, even if you only pair them with a white tee. Promising review: "I bought the white and blue striped pants and am so impressed. Light, airy and cozy. Wore them on a hot day and I kept cool in them. Love the fabric, needed to size down." —Monica H. Get them from Old Navy for $20 (originally $39.99; available in sizes XS–4X, three fits, and seven colors). A pair of stretchy palazzo pants that are literally screaming your name (and mine, too, if I'm being honest). Despite not owning these yet (the keyword being *yet*), I've already planned 2,000 outfits with these in my head. Like, are you kidding me? These are so freaking cute — especially because they come in patterns AND solids. A colorful pair of boho-inspired pants because you're going to be living in them all year long. Yes, they're ~that~ comfy. It's the way that these have elastic cuffs on the bottom, so you can make sure they are the perfect length for you. Short peeps and tall peeps — this one's for you. 🫶 A pair of wide-leg cargo pants for a more casual addition to your summer pants collection. Flowy, comfy, and complete with a ton of pockets, you might start making plans based on whether or not you can wear these. Promising review: "These are the perfect pants for work during the summer! They're light, loose and soft... so comfortable!" —11VG19Get them from Torrid for $16.99+ (originally $69.90; available in sizes 10–30, three lengths, and five colors) A pair of ridiculously cute high-waist pencil pants that'll add some personality to any outfit. For my detail lovers, there's a bow detailing at the waist, but the bottoms are tightened at the ankle (also with bows), just like joggers, making these extra comfy. A stretchy palazzo/yoga pant hybrid if you're the person who would rather be in bed rn. Casual and cute, these can be dressed up or down depending on the day and activity. I mean, is there anything better than wearing something that feels like PJs and looks like slacks? I'll wait. A pair of Everlane's "easy pants" because they're easy, like a Sunday morning. Alexa, play "Easy" by The Commodores. Made from a cotton blend, these breathable pants are office-friendly and also sunset-cocktails-on-a-rooftop-bar friendly. Promising review: "I have looked for pants for a long time. I finally found a winner in this easy pant. It is SO comfortable. The fabric is delicious. It is substantial but lightweight enough for summer. The fit is perfect! I love the style. PLEASE keep these in stock!" —SRBKGet them from Everlane for $69 (originally $98; available in sizes XXS–XXL and six colors). A pair of tapered drawstring joggers for those who prefer a straight-leg style of pants. These bbs are 100% linen, so they're super lightweight and breathable. Heads up — sometimes, linen is a bit sheer, so make sure you have the right undergarments! A pair of pleated pants with a drawstring, so you can adjust them to your liking!
