27 Style Pieces Amazon Customers Love June 2025
A silky satin camisole because this luxe-looking staple piece adds a high-end, sophisticated feel to any outfit — and if you pair it with a blazer, I guarantee you'll be feeling like a Boss Babe.
Promising review: "Checks all the boxes for me: stays on my shoulders without slipping around, hides my bra (straps, armpit, and back), super soft/silky, a nice V-neck without being too plunging, beautiful variety of colors. It's well made, with a lining in the top portion and a small dart at the arm pits to avoid that weird upper armpit gape that sometimes happens in camis. Fits true to size. There is a bit of give to the fabric. Good job, Ekouaer." —P SPrice: $19.99+ (available in sizes XS–3X and 44 colors and styles)
A cap sleeve T-shirt that's casual but elegant, and more importantly, designed to keep your armpits and bra out of sight.
Promising review: "This is a closet staple! I LOVE that the underarms have an extra piece of fabric so it doesn't show your bra. Fabric is a nice material, and it is not a crop top, which is such a nice thing these days." —Taylor Amazon CustomerPrice: $12.99 (available in sizes S–XXL and 25 colors and styles)
A pair of high-waisted running shorts so you can take on your warm weather workouts, errands, and lounging in a breezy, breathable style. BTW, many reviewers find these as impressive (if not better!) than the very similar and very expensive Lulu shorts.
Promising reviews: "So good. So breathable and the perfect length. The waistband is comfortable and doesn't ride up. A Lulu equivalent, if not better." —Peyton"These are the perfect running shorts. The elastic waistband is perfectly stretchy and has enough room. But somehow it doesn't move around when you're running. The cut on the sides of the legs is also very useful when you're running. The inside liner isn't uncomfortable and overall just 10/10." —Lisa MoonPrice: $28 (available in sizes XXS–XL and 21 colors)
Or, a pair of high-waisted yoga shorts that reviewers love for everything from everyday wear to working out, including running. Folks say they're comfy, breathable, and actually stay put!
Promising review: "I am completely in love with these yoga shorts! The fit is absolutely amazing — they're incredibly comfortable and the material feels fantastic against the skin. The length is perfect, hitting just where I like it, and they don't ride up. A huge bonus is the pockets, which are wonderfully deep and actually useful. What makes them even better is the amazing price for such high quality. While they're perfect for yoga, I honestly wear these as my normal everyday shorts because they're that comfortable and versatile. I'm already planning to buy more colors. Highly recommend!" —PhenixPrice: $19.99 (available in sizes XS–3X and 30 colors)
A pair of sleek Lee trousers made from a flexible fabric and nonbinding waistband, so you can actually make it through the work day without wanting to rip your pants off. While you might be stuck going into the office again, at least you can still be comfy.
Promising review: "Love these. They are stretchy and comfortable. I wore them on plane travel that took two days. Never gave me any trouble. They don't shrink, and I like the pockets. Nice material and they look nice on. Goldilocks dressy casual, not too tight, not baggy. I had to return the Amazon-suggested size as it was too big and too long. I've worn these with sneakers and loafers. Could do a dressy low heel too, with a dressy top, and it would be classy. I have them in two colors and will buy more." —MEPrice: $31.69 (available in sizes 2–18, three lengths, and 10 colors)
A spaghetti strap shorts romper since it feels like wearing comfy pajamas, yet is cute enough to wear when you're out and about. Don't mind me living in this 24/7 come summer!
Promising review: "I'm just going to say that I absolutely love these rompers! They are well-priced, well-made, and arrived quickly! The size I would say would be a true fit in terms of how you want to wear them. I personally like my rompers to be a little bit bigger, loose, and baggy, and the size I bought was perfect for that. Ended up loving them so much that I bought one more in each shade, leaving my closet with six of these rompers now. They're, in my opinion, just the coziest thing to wear during the spring and summer when the days are nice. Being out and about or just in the coziness of your own home, you don't have to worry about being uncomfortable or itchy in these. After my mom saw them, she decided to purchase some and has been loving them as well. Overall, if you are looking for a casual and cozy outfit, look no further because they will make you so happy annnnd they have pockets." —ShaunaPrice: $17.99 (available in sizes XS–XXL and 30 colors and styles)
A soft ribbed V-neck tank that you'll find yourself reaching for again and again in the coming months. It's comfy, cute, and super versatile. Pair it with jeans, shorts, or a skirt, and then throw on a scarf, cardigan, or light jacket if it's windy out.
Promising reviews: "I'm in love with these tops. It makes you look good. I bought three and am buying more. I've washed them and the color didn't fade. Stretchy and comfortable. Soft and lightweight garment." —Flormarina JaimePrice: $11.99 (available in sizes S–XL and 27 colors)
A chic cocktail dress if you're in need of a reliable Little Black Dress...or Little Red Dress, Little Blue Dress, Little Green Dress...you get where I'm going with this. Point is, this lovely piece is a versatile staple in any color (and it comes in 12).
Promising review: "I really like this dress. The material is soft and stretchy, which results in a comfortable dress to wear. The back zipper gives it a more elegant look. The dress is versatile, as you can dress it up or down depending on the accessories you wear. I liked it so much that I also ordered a red one. The fit is true to size. I'm happy with my purchase." —Amazon CustomerPrice: $25.99+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and 12 colors)
A pair of boho-style shorts to help you ~keep your cool~ on super hot and humid days. Seriously, don't make the mistake of suffocating in heavy denim shorts — just wear these!
Promising review: "LOOOOve these shorts. Only worn a few times, so hopefully they hold up to regular wear. They are really nice thickness (not denim thick but thicker than linen). They are pretty heavily dyed, so definitely wash separately. As others said, SIZE UP for a great fit. The drawstring is really nice. Deep front pockets! I'll definitely order more!" —benPrice: $24.99 (available in sizes XS–XXL and 44 colors)
A pair of crossover-waist leggings with a trendy, somewhat sassy flare cut that'll totally add some ~oomph~ to your workouts, errands, and casual outings. And because I know you're wondering, reviewers confirm they're buttery soft.
Promising review: "The material is buttery soft and has the perfect amount of stretch while still feeling supportive. The high-waisted V design stays in place all day — no rolling down! The flare style adds such a fun and trendy touch, making them versatile enough to wear to the gym, on errands, or even to dress up for a casual outing. I've received so many compliments while wearing them. They're true to size, and the length is just right for me (I'm 5'7'). The quality is amazing, especially for the price! I've only washed them a few times, and they still look as good as new. Highly recommend these leggings for anyone looking for style, comfort, and durability!" —Amanda SmithPrice: $12.49+ (available in sizes XS–XXL, four lengths, two inseam styles, and 32 colors)
A classic pair of ballet flats since they're ~very cutesy, very demure~ and polite enough *not* to give you blisters.
Plus, a pack of low-cut no-show socks to wear with your ballet flats and other summer shoes. No longer shall you have to choose between going barefoot (*shudders*) or having pesky sock lines showing (*sigh*).
Promising review: "Love these socks! These stay on very nicely, even slipping shoes on/off. They fit true to size and feel comfortable. They have a little sticky stuff on the heel that keeps them from sliding around. Even barefoot, they stay on. They are thinner than normal socks, but going into summer, that is exactly what I wanted, something light that would keep my feet from sweating in my shoes, and they are low profile, so you can not see them wearing lower-cut tennis shoes. I haven't tried them on dressy shoes, but they seem like they would work for that as well." —MomOfTwoTeenGirlsPrice: $8.49+ (available in sizes 5–12 and 18 pack options, including three, six, and eight pair options).
A pleated tennis skirt since it's basically just a flirtier, cuter version of bike shorts. Same comfort and practical functionality, only this style is way more adorable. 🥰
Promising review: "Super cute!! I received MANY compliments on it!! It was super cute and comfy. The shorts didn't ride up, which is a major plus. It accentuated my legs, which is a plus 💜💜!! I plan on purchasing in other colors!! So glad I purchased!!" —DionndraPrice: $19.99 (available in sizes XS–XXL and 22 colors)
A Gloria Vanderbilt high-rise tapered jean if you've been searching for your new signature jeans. Reviewers of all shapes and sizes praise these for having just the right amount of stretch, a soft, comfy feel, and a stylish fit — plus a reasonable price, to boot!
Promising review: "I have practically 'lived' in jeans for years, having gone through designer jean phases and different styles, etc. Lee's was my most recent and constant choice, though. But, after seeing an ad (and a really cheap price) on these, I thought I'd try a pair after looking at the fabric content and pictures. I LOVE THESE JEANS!!!!! They're high quality, comfortable, and fit GREAT!! So happy with the first pair that I went back and bought five more pairs in different shades of blue jean color and tan. Bet you won't stop at just ONE pair either !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" —Just MePrice: $18.94+ (available in sizes 2–20, including short and long sizes, and dozens of colors)
A beautiful pendant necklace since every outfit needs a ~finishing touch.~ Depending on your style, you can choose from gold or silver chains and all different colors of pendants, some of which look like an opaque crystal and others like a sparkly gemstone.
Promising review: "I absolutely love my Kendra Scott necklace! The craftsmanship is stunning, and it adds the perfect touch of elegance to any outfit. The quality is excellent — the chain is sturdy, and the pendant shines beautifully. I've received so many compliments every time I wear it. Definitely worth every penny!" —KristinaPrice: $60 (available in dozens of styles)
A lightweight pullover sweatshirt destined to accompany you on crisp early morning walks and then keep you cozy as you stargaze by the bonfire late into the night. Plus, during the day, you can tie this around your shoulders for a very trendy European-inspired look.
Promising review: "I bought it on a whim and wasn't sure if it would suit me, but I love it. It's one of my favorite sweatshirts. I love the baby pink color and the fit of it. It's not too heavy and decently warm for a mildly cool day. Very cozy and soft. I've had it for a couple of years now and still love it." —fountainheadPrice: $6.91+ (available in sizes S–XXL and 11 colors)
A blouse with delicate three-quarter puff sleeves that taper into smocked cuffs, which makes it eye-catching without being over the top — and if you really want to stand out, be sure to go for one of the fun, exciting prints rather than a solid color.
Promising reviews: "This is such a cute top. The sleeves give it a trendy look. It fits true to size. I would definitely order again." —Tracy Martin"Very nice top. Nice soft material. Has a nice feel to it. Nice and lightweight. Size is as expected. Highly recommend. Great for a spring or fall top." —ipyfePrice: $14.99 (available in sizes S–3X and 31 colors and styles)
A pair of lightweight ankle pants boasting four-way stretch, super deep pockets (eeep!) and a casual-but-cool laid-back style. Reviewers are absolutely obsessed (and you will be too).
Promising review: "These pants are so amazing, this is my second pair. The fit is perfect, the material is soft, and I love the deep pockets. They are my go-to pants now when I'm heading out. They can be styled up or more casual. You won't find anything to beat these for comfort. I highly recommend. They are true to size." —PamPrice: $34.99 (available in sizes XS–3X and 20 colors)
A quick-dry water shoe to keep your feet protected (read: from touching slimy seaweed and pinching sand crabs) while you're splashing in the waves.
Promising review: "Best water shoes I've EVER purchased! I got mine about three years ago, and I'm STILL using them! They are comfy and don't feel like a nuisance on my feet! My kiddos and husband liked them too, so I ordered the entire family a pair. Great value for the money and fit to size!" —chrisPrice: $6.99+ (available in sizes 3–14, men's sizes 2–13, and 44 colors and styles)
A slightly oversize crewneck T-shirt that'll look totally on-trend with some biker shorts or French tucked into jeans. Best of all, you won't have to feel self-conscious or uncomfy when your ~hot girl tummy issues~ decide to make themselves known.
Promising review: "Love this shirt! Material is soft, fit is loose, but not too big. Just ordered four more colors. Easy to dress up or dress casual! If you're looking for a flexible shirt to wear with just about anything, order this one. This shirt makes me feel great, not too clingy, fit is comfortable." —D ThorpePrice: $8.99+ (available in sizes S–3X and 22 colors)
A high-waisted capri legging for days when you're feeling as indecisive as the weather. Hot? Cold? Pants? Shorts? Capris are the answer (especially when they're buttery-soft and supportive)!
Promising review: "The perfect leggings! These buttery soft leggings fit great and run true to size. They can be paired with a cute top or tee for everyday wear or are versatile enough to wear for yoga, running, or your workout session. They are thin but not see-through! I will be purchasing more of these." —AshleyPrice: $7.49+ (available in sizes S–XXL, three styles, and 37 colors)
A silky-soft fitted T-shirt that hugs your body for a smooth 'n' sleek look. Many reviewers find it quite similar to Skims tops, only this one is less than $10. 👀
Reviewers say to size up for a slightly less fitted look. Promising review: "Have bought these tops over and over again. They are 100% worth the hype, affordable, comfortable, and long-lasting. I reach for these tops more than my Skims ones." —Jasmine VillaPrice: $9.95 (available in sizes XS–XXL and 26 colors)
A seamless bralette offering full coverage and reliable support *without* the discomfort of wires and chafing. Turns out they're NOT a package deal.
Promising review: "I have been searching for a bra that feels like a soft bralette but actually gives me support!! As I've gained weight because I'm pregnant, my bra size has also gone up, and I love how this bra even comes with an extension for when I grow even more. The feel of this bra is perfect for the summer heat; the material is super soft and breathable. I could wear this bra every day and plan to get more!" —cesarPrice: $23.99 (available in sizes S–3X and 14 colors)
A Hanes men's fleece hoodie that doesn't actually care what your gender is — it's cozy and effortlessly stylish on everyone.
Promising review: "I purchased a black and ash color hoodie like two years ago and wear them both frequently. The quality is great. Also wore throughout both of my pregnancies. Perfect for a little oversized comfy hoodie — color is as described. The material is soft and cozy with a little stretch. I wash on warm and dry in the dryer, and it does not shrink. I've gotten so many compliments on them. The black color also does not fade. Highly recommend. And the price — can't beat it!! These are great sporty/casual/everyday hoodies!" —JessicaPrice: $14.92 (available in men's sizes S–5XL and 36 colors)
A gorgeous floral cover-up with so many styling possibilities, it'll practically pay for itself by summer's end. Slip this on over your swimsuits, dresses, tanks, and other warm-weather outfits to give them an extra fashionable touch.
Promising review: "I am so big into this kimono look. I now have four of them, all in different colors and lengths. There is plenty of fabric if I want to cross the front and belt it. It falls to mid-thigh in the back (the front curves upward). The first time I wore it, I got a LOT of compliments on it. I am very, very happy with this!" —anniebPrice: $9.99+ (available in sizes S–3X and 39 styles)
A tiered maxi skirt for days when shorts or pants of any kind are simply a no. Pair this with a tank or cropped shirt for a fast, pretty outfit, and if you want to dress it up, throw on a blazer or some nice jewelry!
Promising review: "What makes any skirt or dress superior? POCKETS! Love this skirt so much, I bought it in two colors! I love a full-length maxi skirt that you can dress up or dress down. As a mom of three, pockets are essential to my wardrobe, and I love that with this skirt I can have style and functionality. I get compliments on them all the time. Wearing the skirt higher up makes it so I'm not constantly stepping on it while I walk." —Amazon CustomerPrice: $34.98 (available in sizes XS–XXL and 34 styles)
A cute Sketchers mesh shoe because you've reached that point in life where you simply refuse to buy shoes that aren't functional. According to reviewers, these are lightweight, easy to slip on and off *and* offer plenty of support (so you'd best grab these before your summer trip overseas).
Promising review: "Wife has several pairs and kept telling me how great they were and the most comfortable shoes she'd ever had, dress and casual. Well, after continued 'you need a pair or two,' I finally bought a pair. And she was on the mark. Most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. Wear them all day and they still feel great. And best of all, they don't cost $200. Got mine on sale for $39.95 and wish I'd gotten two or three pairs at that price. Great value and highly recommend them. You won't be disappointed." —ChuckAmazon CustomerPrice: $34.50+ (available in sizes 5–13, narrow and wide widths, and 24 colors)

Travelers Say This $20 Oversized Button-down Shirt Is the ‘Hardest-working Item' in Their Suitcases
Once you find an oversized button-down shirt you love, never let it go. These classic capsule wardrobe pieces are a total workhorse for travel: They layer well, can be styled up or down, and are lightweight and breezy while still providing coverage when you need it. Versatile enough to wear year-round, they work for practically every climate and travel destination. An oversized button-down shirt can be a lifesaver in spring when chilly weather unsuspectingly arises. Whether you're in the market for your first or tenth button-down, consider expanding your closet with this stylish option that's earned more than 4,000 five-star ratings from Amazon shoppers. This Big Dart shirt has been called a perfect crop-top overshirt and swimsuit cover-up by Amazon shoppers, with many reporting that it can be worn with a wide variety of outfits. 'This shirt has got to be the hardest-working item in my suitcase right now,' wrote one reviewer. 'These shirts pack well, wear well, and are easy to dress up or down.' Another shopper wrote that they are 'surprisingly obsessed' with it, adding that it's 'truly fantastic.' Featuring a relaxed, longline silhouette and drop sleeves made for scrunching and rolling up, this shirt is made with a lightweight cotton-polyester blend fabric that is 'lightweight and breathable.' And while cotton-blend fabrics are typically prone to wrinkling—requiring you to use a portable steamer once you've unpacked your suitcase—reviewers share that this shirt doesn't wrinkle as easily as other button-down shirts. This Big Dart shirt comes in sixteen different colors, including neutral options like white, black, and cream, as well as vibrant springtime shades, including lilac and yellow.

8 top new movies to stream this week on Netflix, Prime Video, Hulu and more (Aug. 19-25)
It's set to be a huge week for new movies across the best streaming services, with Netflix, Prime Video, Hulu and more offering subscribers new flicks to enjoy. Meanwhile, on premium video-on-demand platforms, two of the biggest movies of the summer, 'Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning' and 'F1: The Movie,' make the move from the big screen to at-home streaming. It's also a jam-packed week for family-friendly animated movies, with not one, not two, but three new options, including Pixar's latest original effort, 'Elio,' which sees a young boy rub shoulders with a colorful crew of aliens, and also fan-favorite sequel 'The Bad Guys 2.' If you're looking for something new to watch this week, I've picked out the biggest newcomers across streaming services. And be sure to check out the top new TV shows this week if you're in the mood for some binge-watching. After a surprisingly lengthy theatrical run, by modern standards at least, 'Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning' makes its streaming bow this week, and the action blockbuster is sure to be just as thrilling watched from the comfort of your own home as it was in the cinema. Unfortunately, 'The Final Reckoning' has to pay for the narrative sins of its somewhat messy predecessor, but it offers some of the franchise's best set-piece moments, which is quite a feat considering the pedigree of the 'Mission: Impossible' series. Following on from 'Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning' (fun fact: this movie was originally entitled 'Dead Reckoning - Part 2"), superspy Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) is still racing against time to shut down a rogue AI known as the Entity. Assembling his IMF squad, including Hayley Atwell, Ving Rhames and Simon Pegg, 'The Final Reckoning' offers a global-trotting action romp. If it's truly the final 'Mission: Impossible' movie, it's a largely fitting conclusion for the iconic action series. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. Buy on Amazon from August 19 Pixar's 'Elio' was a box-office disappointment for Disney's crown jewel animation studio, but the House of Mouse will be hoping it can find a second life over on streaming. However, I suspect that many viewers will be patiently waiting for its Disney Plus drop in a few weeks, but if you're eager to join Elio on his intergalactic adventures right now, you can watch on premium streaming platforms starting this week. The movie centers on the eponymous Elio, a bright-eyed young boy with big dreams of going to space. He doesn't have to wait until he's older to fulfill this wish to explore the stars, either. One day, while at summer camp, he's unexpectedly beamed up by aliens and taken to the Communiverse, an interplanetary organization for all the beings of the galaxy to share their knowledge. The wrinkle is that his new alien pals believe he's an ambassador for Earth and desperately need his help. Buy or rent on Amazon from August 19 If you're looking for a family-friendly movie with a little more attitude, 'The Bad Guys 2' could be the perfect pick for you and your little ones. It focuses on a group of reformed villains, led by the wily Mr. Wolf (Sam Rockwell), and is a colorful heist caper starring a very motley crew. "The Bad Guys 2" has proved to be not only a hit with critics over the summer (scoring a very strong 87% on Rotten Tomatoes) but it's also gone down a treat with viewers, holding an even more impressive 95% audience score on RT. 'The Bad Guys 2' sees the entire crew return, including Mr. Wolf, Mr. Snake (Marc Maron), Mr. Piranha (Anthony Ramos), Mr. Shark (Craig Robinson) and Ms. Tarantula (Awkwafina). These former crooks are trying to be good and live honest lives, but they're drawn back into the criminal world to help with a high-stakes heist by a new team, The Bad Girls. Buy or rent on Amazon from August 19 I did a double-take when poring over the streaming release schedule when I saw 'The Map That Leads to You' because the name is very similar to another teen romance drama, 'The Map of Tiny Perfect Things,' which landed on Prime Video back in 2021. Unfortunately, this new streaming movie lacks the time-travel twist of Prime's previous map-themed original, and instead looks like a pretty bog-standard drama about doe-eyed young lovers and their complicated affair. Heather (Madelyn Cline) is heading off on a European adventure after her graduation. With her two best friends (Sofia Wylie and Madison Thompson) in tow, it's set to be a dream summer before Heather returns to her 'real' life, which has been perfectly planned out. Of course, life doesn't always follow a script, and when she meets Jack (KJ Apa), she starts to reconsider her future and the path laid out before her. Watch on Prime Video from August 20 Samara Weaving leading a heist-thriller movie, sign me up! That's the quick elevator pitch for 'Eenie Meanie,' and it's quite a compelling one. It's a good thing the core premise has plenty of potential, because the name is hardly going to attract many viewers on its own. Seriously, at first, I assumed this was some form of educational movie for pre-schoolers. Rather, it's the feature film debut of writer/director Shawn Simmons, and sees Weaving play Edie (nicknamed Eenie Meanie), a getaway driver, who's dragged into a dangerous job by a former employer, with the life of her unreliable and troubled ex-boyfriend (Karl Glusman) at stake. Taking clear cues from 'Baby Driver,' this high-speed thriller looks like it could be a bit of a sleeper hit. Watch on Hulu from August 22 Cynics could accuse 'F1: The Movie' of being little more than a 155-minute commercial for the popular motorsport competition. I'll acknowledge the level of product placement is high, this sports drama from 'Top Gun Maverick' director Joseph Kosinski is a breakneck ride with some of the best vehicular sequences captured on film since … well, since 'Top Gun Maverick. Brad Pitt plays Sonny Hayes, a wandering driver, who is recruited to a struggling Formula 1 team desperate for an experienced motorist to work with their hotshot rookie, Joshua Pearce (Damson Idris). Battling his personal demons and friction within the team, Sonny needs all his expertise behind the wheel to come out on top. Outside of the car, 'F1: The Movie' follows the standard sports movie formula very closely, but the conventional narrative beats melt into the background when the characters get behind the wheel and Kosinski gets to show this masterful ability to construct high-speed racing drama. Buy or rent on Amazon from August 22 As noted, it's a big week for animated family movies, and Peacock subscribers can look forward to streaming 'Night of the Zoopocalypse' over the weekend. There looks to be a direct-to-DVD quality about this one, with fairly generic animation and a predictable story focused on a group of anthropomorphic animals living in a zoo, but it should at least provide suitable entertainment for young viewers. In 'Night of the Zoopocalypse,' a meteor crashes into Colepepper Zoo, which sees several of the animals transform into slobbering mutants, and to save the day, and restore the zoo to its usual harmony, Gracie (Gabbi Kosmidis), a young wolf, must team up with Dan (David Harbour), a gruff mountain lion. It's a little out of season, with Halloween more than two months away, but 'Night of the Zoopocaylpse' should serve as a solid summer time filler. Watch on Peacock from August 22 'On Swift Horses' is a romantic drama that sells itself on its impressive cast list of rising stars, including Daisy Edgar-Jones, Jacob Elordi, Will Poulter, Diego Calva and Sasha Celle. It received mixed reviews during its limited theatrical run in the spring. But I expect it'll enjoy a fresh wave of interest now that it's heading to the world's biggest streaming service. Muriel (Edgar-Jones) and Lee (Poulter) are a married couple moving to California after the latter returns home from the Korean War. But their attempt to find peace and stability is rocked when Lee's younger brother, Julius (Elordi), shows up and upends their plans. What follows is a knotty tale of love, drama and unexpected passion. Some critics accused the movie of being a little emotionally messy, but the cast's performances received plenty of praise, especially Elordi's. Watch on Netflix from August 23

The bright color can create a nice focal point in an otherwise drab area of your outdoor space. Some bamboo wind chimes to bring some zen vibes to your outdoor space. When it moves, the bamboo produces deep, soothing tones that'll blend nicely with nature's soundtrack. No batteries, no wires, just peaceful background music you didn't have to find via a playlist.

Promising review: "This is the third one of these rugs I have bought over the last 10 years. Not because they wear out, but because I am adding to the stock. I use them on a covered screen porch, and they look so nice and are so durable that they are in place even in the winter." —Ms Lin SewaneeGet it from Amazon for $45.74+ (available in 28 colors and 15 sizes). A wicker bench with a cushion to turn any corner of your yard into a sit-and-stay-a-while spot. The weather-resistant frame and cushion will handle summer storms without a fuss, and its 700-pound capacity means it'll hold you, your favorite person, and maybe even a tray of lemonade with ease. Promising review: "Holds over 600 pounds with ease, much nicer than the price point suggests. It's deep enough from front to back to sit comfortably. The cushion is comfortable, and the slight give of the weaving underneath the cushion makes a very soft, supportive seat. I am very, very impressed with the quality of this bench, especially considering that similar benches cost two to three times as much. I kind of expected this bench to have cut corners, and was very pleased to find that the quality is equal to much more expensive benches. I highly recommend this product!" —B BaGet it from Amazon for $89.99+ (available in 14 color combos). An artificial ivy privacy screen that'll make your fence, balcony, or unsightly wall look like it belongs in a secret garden instead of a parking lot. Using this is an easy way to add a little greenery and have a lot of coverage, all without having to plant a single thing. Promising review: "This is a great product for any outdoor space. It provides extra privacy whilst adding beauty to my balcony. The leaves were all intact and it was easy to install with the zip ties that came in the box. The fence has been stable, never falling down nor loosen up its grip. During rain, I've never experienced the leaves coming off/apart. If you're looking to spice up your outdoor area with faux greenery, this product is a great quality fence and highly recommend!" —C.C. Get it from Amazon for $69.99. A roll of natural reed fencing to provide your outdoor space with some much-needed privacy without installing something permanent. Perfect for screening off your patio, balcony, or that spot where your neighbor's window looks directly onto your yard. Promising review: "I am very happy with this reed fencing. The lovely brown color and tight weave with the string is so much better than ones I've had in the past that were woven with wire, which look shabby and horrible. These are a wonderful quality for the price to make putting up large sections of fencing more affordable. They are not completely private, as people have mentioned, but that's not what I wanted. I wanted to be able to see through a little bit, but they work great to give some sense of separation and privacy." —Lauren it from Amazon for $47.99+ (available in five sizes and two colors). A hanging hammock chair, because sometimes you just need a main character moment and this is the chair that'll give it to you.

Brightech is a small business in Los Angeles that sells indoor and outdoor lighting for the review: "I have had these lights up since the end of September 2022. They lit up right out of the box. They have been through a snowstorm, ice storm, and massive rain and are still perfect. They are pretty easy to hang. They are shatterproof, which I love. —D KellyGet it from Brightech on Amazon for $34.99+ (available in warm or soft light). A narrow wicker chair to give you all the cozy, cocoon-like vibes of an egg chair — without eating up half your patio. It's just as comfy and stylish as the oversized versions, but way better at fitting into tight spots. Promising review: "Loved this compact version of an egg chair. It it gorgeous and doesn't take up too much space on the patio. It was very easy to put together and the instructions were clear and simple to read. This chair is very sturdy and doesn't seem like it will unravel or break. The cushions are very plush and the covers unzip and can easily be cleaned in a washing machine. Overall, this purchase has been so worth it." —Evelyn Ndidi Get it from Amazon for $141.95+ (available in three styles). A pair of outdoor Bluetooth speakers that'll double as flickering torch lanterns, because music is great, but music with ambiance is even better. They're waterproof (bring on those summer showers), sync together for surround sound, and given serious "cozy evening under the string lights" energy. Promising review: "I ordered waterproof speakers so I could sit outside, and I'm so glad I found these. They're perfect for what I needed because they are similar to tiki torch lights that are already planted. They give off a nice ambiance when sitting out back, and the sound is loud but not too loud to disturb neighbors. Bluetooth connection is easy. So far, so good, and I'm satisfied with my purchase." —applefirGet it from Amazon for $74.99. A foldable play set if you want a literal playground in your backyard. It has a slide, climbing wall, swing, monkey bars, rope wall climbing net, and a wooden ladder. Bonus: it works indoors or outside, so when the cold weather hits you can move it inside.

It can be used by several kids at once. As a buy-nothing queen, I was hesitant about the price but am satisfied." —Jonathan D Get it from Amazon for $499+ (available in two sizes).

Promising review: "I love this loveseat ... when my cat is not hoarding it 😩 I spend so much time sitting longways on it, reading books. It's lightweight but sturdy — I weigh over 200 pounds and feel supported while stretched out on it. It was also super easy to assemble. I normally hire someone to assemble anything that comes in pieces, but I was able to tackle this alone in about 45 minutes." —Brittney-Elizabeth Williams Get it from Amazon for $93.70+ (available in four colors and 1-, 3-, or 5-piece sets).

Love that it's a table and an aesthetically pleasing cooler." —ShanaGet it from Amazon for $119.99 (available in four colors). A waterproof outdoor curtain to either partition off space in your outdoor space or provide you with some privacy, like if your balcony looks directly onto someone else's balcony or something unsightly. A gas firepit table so you can keep when the nights start to get chilly. It comes with a glass lid, so when the fire's not in use it can be used as a table. Promising review: "My favorite purchase for our deck. I LOVE this fire table. Good size, great value compared to what is out there. Packaged nicely. My husband put it together alone in 30–45 minutes with no frustration and easy-to-follow directions. Puts out a decent amount of heat. Enough rocks to adequately cover. Just add your propane tank. I love that it has a lid as well. You will find sturdier fire tables, but not at this price. Excellent value." —BelliumGet it from Amazon for $199.99+ (available in two sizes and four styles). A 21-inch Ryobi self-propelling lawnmower because yard work is way more tolerable when your mower doesn't sound like a helicopter. This one's battery-powered (read: quiet), and the charge lasts long enough — I did both my front and back lawn with juice left over. It's a very worthy investment if you want to maintain a pristine lawn all year long without a lot of effort on your part (self-propelling really is awesome). My house has a lot of lawn: over 3,000 square feet. When we first moved in, I bought a cheap battery-powered mower that could barely handle either the front or the back yard on a single charge. Not ideal. This Ryobi mower is the total opposite. I can mow both the front and back with charge to spare. A "command center" lets you activate turbo mode and lights, and adjust the self-propel speed right from the handle (great for slowing down when you're trying to mow a corner). Turbo mode gives you an extra boost for tough patches, and it comes with a grass catcher bag, though I always keep mine on mulch mode because it's better for the lawn. The handle folds down for easy storage. Bonus: the 40V battery works with over 85 other Ryobi tools, which I love because it means I can expand my collection without collecting a bunch of different batteries. Promising review: "I have about 1,500 sq. ft. yard and I have mowed it four times and the battery is at 50%. It does great on a 25% incline slope. It has so much power that I had to lower it to 50%. Best lawnmower I have ever owned. Highly recommend." —RchoHomeOwner Get it from The Home Depot for $549. A quilted hammock with a detachable pillow so you can take a nap under your favorite tree. Each hammock can hold up to 450 pounds, so grab a loved one and get to snuggling. You can get the stand here!What's included: One pillow, two chains, and two S-shaped hooks. Promising review: "There is nothing more comfortable than being cradled and rocked in a hammock that is comfortable with its padded quilted canvas, built-in pillow, and the size built for two. The craftsmanship and anchors give you a secure feeling." — it from Amazon for $67.40+ (available in seven colors). A fully insulated, aesthetically pleasing cooler that'll be the hit of any backyard bbq you host. With a 45-quart capacity, it can hold all your favorite bevvies — because no one likes running inside for refills. It's got a built-in bottle opener, a drainage spout for easy cleanup, and a lid you can pop open for quick grabs or shut tight to keep things frosty. A portable, Bluetooth-enabled outdoor speaker with all the bells and whistles you could possibly ever need. Can it play music nonstop for 24 hours on a single charge? Totes. Is it waterproof? Yes. Floatable? Uh-huh. Does it have a racetrack subwoofer with a max output of 80W? Heck yeah, it does! Promising review: "I cannot understand how something this size can possibly produce such amazing, loud, clear sound and bass. It is a truly incredible device that I intend to use daily because it works well outside, too. Do not be deceived by the affordable price. It is significantly better than a $400 JBL. The battery life is great, too. If I want it loud, half the volume is all you need. If I want to blast my neighbors, 80%. I haven't needed to push it further. The bass-up function is awesome. You're gonna love this thing." —Rob and PiperGet it from Amazon for $89.99+ (available in three colors). A canopy swing that'll rock and swing *and* provide you with shade on extra sunny days. It's zero gravity, so you'll feel weightless when you're all tucked in. A giant four-in-a-row game for keeping you and your guests entertained for hours. It's all-weather, designed to be quiet, and has a carrying case for storing when not in use. Champion Sports is a family-owned and operated small business that's been operating out of New Jersey since 1961. Promising review: "I bought this for the kids to play during cookouts. We have corn hole and other games as well, and I find myself playing this as much, if not more, than corn hole. Great quality, and it comes with a carrying bag to put away for easy storage and clean up." —Alan Rich Get it from Amazon for $199.99+ (available in two sizes). And a set of giant wooden dice with a matching bucket to make your backyard feel like summer camp, minus the bug bites.
