Promising review: "I liked these when I tried them on, and after wearing them for a few hours, I ordered four more pairs. These are perhaps the most comfortable thing I have ever worn; that includes a pretty awesome cashmere lounge set.

Promising reviews: "I have bought this top in seven different colors because I am that obsessed with it. I have gifted it to all of my friends for their birthdays because it is that great. It is a Spandex-like material and super comfy, but the fit and style of it are what I am obsessed with. It is super cute. I wear this to work out in or even just wear to go out in without a bra underneath, and it keeps everything in check. My number one clothing item for the last couple of months!!" —Midwestern Girl"I read the reviews and couldn't believe that women with large breasts, such as myself, could really go braless with this top. Yup. It's true." —AimeePrice: $14.97 (available in sizes XS–XXL and in 30 colors)
A beach cover-up for your next seaside getaway, whether it's at a tropical destination or just a few miles from your home. All that's missing from this outfit is a mojito in your hand and sunscreen on your skin.

A super-cute satin mini skirt proving satin is not just for evening wear. Whoever thinks that has clearly never laid eyes on this cute, brunch-ready skirt.
Promising review: "Literally… buy it. I recommend actually checking your measurements, but the difference in sizes isn't by much, so if you're really worried about it, size up. It's not that big a change anyway. I was skeptical, but it's now my favorite thing. Not too tight, not too flowy." —Emma TaylorPrice: $24.99 (available in sizes XS–XL and in 36 colors)
A pair of khaki shorts for when you want to enjoy the comfort of your favorite jean shorts while adhering to your minimalist style. These have an inseam in between mini shorts and bermudas, making them a perfect breezy option while still providing coverage!
Promising review: "These are really well-made shorts. Every seam, details like zipper and finished edges are top notch. They are above name brands in quality." —MargiePrice: $17.90 (available in sizes 0–20, two fits, and 11 colors)
A strapless bustier so you can look like you have a personal stylist on speed dial. This top + your favorite blue jeans + go-to jewelry pieces = the perfect outfit formula for a night out with friends.
Promising review: "I purchased this outfit for a night out. I must say I love this top because you can dress it up or dress it down. It is not see-through at all. A nice corset-like top! Not made of cheap material at all." —Danielle DeNoraPrice: $34.99 (available sizes 0–16 and 13 colors)
A pair of wide-leg cropped jeans that are the secret to looking put together and feeling comfy as heck. These will elevate your go-to white-tee-and-jeans outfit formula while providing extra room for movement!
Promising review: "I never ever buy jeans from Amazon because jeans are so hard to shop for. I'm honestly jumping for joy over how much I looooove these; they are sooo soft and stretchy.

A pair of braided sandals with a supportive chunky heel proving that you *can* dress up virtually anything — even your favorite band tee and broken-in pair of jeans.
Promising review: "Reaching for these sandals more and more because they're comfy, cute, and elevate my outfits! They didn't require any breaking in, and I've worn them for an entire day out and had no issues with long-term wear. Fit was true to size. Going to get another color since I love them so much!" —NidhiPrice: $29.99 (available in sizes 6–10 and 25 colors)
A pair of palazzo pants that will allow the summer breeze to flow while still making you look put together if you're heading to the office.
Promising review: "These pants are so comfortable and flowy! I stepped outside of my usual skinny jean outfit to try this style, and I never want to take them off! They are great casual pants for work and can be dressed up for the evening with a fancy shirt and heels. They are as comfortable as pajamas, without looking like it." —NashPrice: $28.89 (available in sizes XS–XXL, short and long, and 29 colors)

A pair of chic sandals you can wear anytime, anywhere — whether you're off to a meeting, brunch with friends, or a wedding!
Promising review: "I bought these to match a hot pink dress I purchased, and they matched the dress perfectly! They are very comfortable. I wore them to a party for eight hours and had no issues with pain the next day. The straps fit nicely, not too loose or snug. Would definitely purchase in other colors!" —MarianaPrice: $20.66+ (available in sizes 5–13 and in 11 colors)
A tortoise shell Apple watch band that costs a fraction of the price of designer options while being just as (dare I say, if not more) chic! This is great for your friend who changes their accessories pretty much every day!
Promising review: "Honestly, the best watch band I've found yet. Cutest print and surprisingly WAY higher quality than I ever expected for the price! Links were super easy to remove/add back in, and it's incredibly easy to clean. Holds up well and stays securely clamped even when I sleep and run. Highly HIGHLY recommend to any fashionista!" —CaseyPrice: $8.99+ (available in 18 colors and compatible with nine watch styles)
A pair of capri pants, because they're back, but not in the way you're used to — think less cargo capris of the 2000s and more fitted cropped pants circa 1960s legends like Sophia Loren. These pants go very well with frilly blouses and pointed-toe slingbacks — but you can also go for a more skater princess look and pair this with an oversized hoodie and Vans!
Promising review: "Love the fit of these. I am 5'9' and often have trouble finding comfortable shorts and capris. These are pull-ons and very comfortable fabric. They feel like great quality, and you can dress them up with a nice blouse. I would buy again!" —Carolin PachecoPrice: $20+ (available in sizes 6–16 and in 10 colors)
A high-slit wrap skirt that will be the only thing you have to pack for your weekend getaway this summer. This perfect warm-weather skirt works for any occasion — from wine tasting to listening to live music. Plus! Depending on how you adjust the slit, you can even use this skirt as a buffer against chafing. BRB, ordering now.
A pair of buttery soft leggings because the bottom half of your Zoom outfits deserve an upgrade, too! If you don't find yourself in front of a webcam much these days, this pair is also great to wear during your daily runs (reviewers say they're super moisture-wicking!).
Promising review: "These leggings are amazing. Excellent fit, extremely cute and comfortable. They lend more to a Spandex material with a sheen to the finish. Lots of stretch and great compression. The length is perfect. I am a curvy girl, and they fit well without squeezing or bunching. They passed the 'squat' test and don't show through when leaning over." —BrandiPrice: $22.99 (available in sizes XS–XL and in 23 colors)
An off-the-shoulder shirt that will slot right into any "-core" you're into right now. This is the perfect top for dressing down with slacks for the office or dressing up with a mini skirt when going out.
Promising review: "It's nice enough to wear to a nice dinner but cute enough to wear to the bar. It makes me feel more put together, and I love it. I wear it as a complete off-the-shoulder shirt, but it fits over both shoulders too." —AlejandraPrice: $25.89 (available in sizes XS–XL and in 14 colors)
A v cute tiered maxi skirt — aka an easy way to look like a million bucks. This paired with a tube top in a matching color and a tan leather belt, will give you major coastal Cali influencer vibes. And OMG, I almost forgot — it has pockets!
Promising review: "Exactly what I was looking for! I have seen skirts like this all over my Pinterest and this fits very true to size. The elastic was comfortable, high-waisted or low-waisted. Length is long but great! Plus, it has pockets!! Great find!" —Gabrielle LynchPrice: $29.99 (available in sizes S–XXL and in 23 colors)
A satin button-up for a fun, reflective, and fancy-looking upgrade from your typical button-up shirt!
A straw tote bag with pom-poms since everyone deserves to look glamorous on vacation. Get this before you jet off to your next beachside getaway!
Promising review: "I absolutely love this handbag! It is of great quality for the price. This stylish handbag complements every spring and summer outfit perfectly. I received so many compliments while carrying it! Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that there is plenty of space inside to carry your belongings. This handbag is a must-have." —Chavas StanleyPrice: $25.59+ (available in two styles)
A deep V-neck crop top serving major '70s vibes! You can pair this with a knitted skirt if you really wanna play up the retro look.
Promising review: "I never leave reviews, but this top is too perfect not to sing its praises. I have a small frame and a larger chest (32G), so I was skeptical that this top would fit in my usual size (small). However, it fits perfectly. I attribute this mostly to the quality of the material, which is very soft and super stretchy, and will probably still fit even through weight gain/loss. It's also a full top — the material does not roll up but fully covers my midriff, and the straps and cups provide enough coverage and support so a bra isn't needed. Would recommend!" —Amazon CustomerPrice: $16.99 (available in sizes XS–XL and 20 colors)
A high-waisted two-piece that'll have you turning heads at your local pool, a faraway beach, or a desert music festival.
Promising review: "I absolutely love it! The top is so cute that I've worn it by itself and received tons of compliments. It fits great, and it provides a lot of support, which is nice. The material is thick as well, and I felt very comfortable in it. The bottoms are adorable and high-waisted and fit great. It runs true to size, and the colors are vibrant. Overall, love this suit!" —Amazon CustomerPrice: $32.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and in 24 colors)
A button-up shirtdress, because who has the time or energy to wear pants on a weekend (and ESPECIALLY when relaxing at brunch)?! Wear this for a freeing feel and a look that'll turn heads.
Promising review: "Such a great dress that can be dressed down with sneakers/sandals or dressed up with wedges/block heels. I got the medium and loved the kelly green color!" —AmandaPrice: $34.99 (available in sizes XS–3X and in 24 colors)
And a tie-front cropped shirt that will elevate your go-to tee-and-jeans outfit, STAT. You can wear this as a shirt practically anywhere or use it as a coverup when you're by the beach!

Lucid vs Linenspa: We compared two popular budget mattress toppers under $100
This story is available exclusively to Business Insider subscribers. Become an Insider and start reading now. When you buy through our links, Business Insider may earn an affiliate commission. Learn more Lucid 3-inch Bamboo Charcoal Memory Foam Mattress Topper Lucid's mattress topper is pleasantly plush, with a deeply contouring feel that's best for side sleepers. Linenspa 3-inch Memory Foam Mattress Topper (Twin) The Linenspa Memory Foam Mattress Topper is soft yet supportive. It's best for stomach sleepers, back sleepers, and heavy people. The verdict The soft memory foam feel of the Lucid mattress topper is the pick for side sleepers looking for plush contouring, while the high-density foam feel of the Linenspa is for stomach and back sleepers who need a little extra support. The Linenspa is usually about $10 cheaper than the Lucid mattress topper, so it's more affordable, too. When you're shopping for the best mattress topper — especially on Amazon — you're likely to notice two brands dominate the budget options. Lucid and Linenspa. The mattress toppers look alike and have similar price points, both costing well under $100. After some research into the companies, we found that they're owned by the same parent company, which piqued our interest even further in terms of each brand's overlap in terms of quality, value, and design. I compared a popular topper from each: the Lucid Bamboo Charcoal Mattress Topper and the Linenspa Memory Foam Mattress Topper. On first look, designs are similar: both were three inches thick, made of memory foam, feature cooling properties, and cost under $100. Trying them both out for myself, I also compared them on features like comfort, cooling, motion isolation, and policies like trial and warranty to help you find which budget mattress topper is the one for you. I've uncovered that they have subtle differences that you may not notice on paper. Whether you're trying to customize your mattress on the cheap or in need of the best twin XL topper for your college dorm room, read on for the differences between the Lucid and the Linenspa, and find which is will be the most comfortable for you. Lucid vs Linenspa: Overview Lucid vs Linenspa: Design The Lucid is made of memory foam infused with bamboo and charcoal; it's ventilated with tiny holes for extra breathability. The Linenspa is made with gel-infused memory foam. Kinsley Searles/Business Insider The Lucid and Linenspa mattress toppers have similar, simple designs. The Linenspa and Lucid I tested are both three-inch slabs of cushy, compressive CertiPUR-US-certified memory foam (meaning it's free from toxic chemicals) that sit directly on top of your mattress. They don't have straps or skirted elastic to attach them to the mattress, but thankfully, they didn't shift. The Lucid mattress topper is made of CertiPUR-US-certified memory foam infused with bamboo and charcoal. This gives the topper a soft gray color and helps wick away moisture and regulate odors. The topper also has air holes for additional ventilation. It's sold in two-inch, three-inch, and four-inch varieties. Generally speaking, the taller toppers will be plusher, more contouring, and cause your body to sink the most, while the thinner toppers will have a firmer, more on-top feel. The Linenspa topper is also made with CertiPUR-US-certified foam, but it's infused with cooling gel. The cooling gel stands out as dark blue specks against the light blue topper. The Linenspa topper doesn't have ventilation holes. It's also available in a two-inch thickness. Both brands offer the toppers with a removable, machine-washable cover, which I recommend since the foam itself is spot-clean only, but it does add to the cost. I also recommend protecting your mattress topper with a mattress protector to increase its lifespan in the event of sweat or spills. Lucid vs Linenspa: Setup Both the Lucid and Linenspa are simple sheets of memory foam to soften up a firm mattress. Kinsley Searles/Business Insider Both toppers arrive in a box about the size of an end table. Inside, the memory foam is compressed and rolled within a layer of tissue paper and plastic wrap. On first impression, these toppers feel very distinct from one another. After unboxing, the Lucid topper was significantly compressed, with a texture that reminded me (rather specifically) of crushed cotton candy. As such, it took much longer to expand than the Linenspa mattress topper, which popped out of the plastic basically ready to go — although the brand recommends letting it air out for 24 to 48 hours after opening. I attribute the different texture to the construction of the toppers: Lucid is plusher, whereas the Linenspa has high-density foam, so it springs into place quickly. Both had a slight chemical scent that faded by bedtime. Lucid vs Linenspa: Comfort and support Despite their similar appearance, the Lucid and Linenspa mattress toppers are notably distinct in terms of comfort and support. Both are comfortable and supportive toppers that can soften a firm bed, but which is best for you will depend on your sleeping position and comfort preferences. For side sleepers looking for a super soft, cushy topper, I recommend the Lucid. The Lucid topper isn't as firm as the Linenspa, and it adapts to the curves of your body to support pressure points, like the hips, while you sleep. This feel is perfect for side sleepers, since your body can sink into the mattress, keeping your spine aligned as you sleep. Some might not enjoy the plushness, though. I'm a plus-size person, and I found myself sinking into the Lucid topper too much for my liking. At times, I felt like I was stuck in a sea of memory foam, making moving around at night or getting in and out of bed difficult. The Lucid topper is better suited for people with lighter bodies, since you won't have to worry about sinking in and can enjoy the plushness and support. On the other hand, the Linenspa topper is cushy yet firm. I never felt like I was "stuck" in bed when I used it, and I could move around easily. The topper still adapts to fit your body, but the feeling is much subtler than the Lucid mattress topper. I recommend the Linenspa for back and stomach sleepers, who usually require a firmer surface than side sleepers. Don't worry, though: it's not overwhelmingly firm, so it will still soften up any uncomfortable mattress. It's also a great choice for heavy people, since you won't sink into this topper as much as the Lucid. Overall, I preferred the pressure relief of the Linenspa topper, but side sleepers might prefer the Lucid. It just depends whether you prefer the foam to fully engulf your pressure points or offer gentler support. Lucid vs Linenspa: Cooling Both Lucid and Linenspa mattress toppers have features to keep hot sleepers cool and sweat-free throughout the night, making them viable options to consider if you require the best cooling mattress topper. However, the way they do so is a bit different. Lucid infuses its memory foam with bamboo and charcoal, which is designed to also help absorb odors and is ventilated for airflow, while Linenspa's cooling gel foam helps regulate body temperature. Overall, the Lucid had better heat dissipation (meaning it wicks heat away faster), while the Linenspa stayed cooler for longer. To test cooling, I measured the topper's temperature before going to bed, immediately after waking up, and two minutes after getting out of bed. On average, the Lucid topper had a starting temperature of 74.6 degrees, while the Linenspa measured in at 71.8 degrees, in a room with the same ambient temperature. Both toppers increased about 10 degrees immediately after waking up, meaning that the Linenspa stayed the coolest at night. After the two-minute period, the Linenspa only dropped two degrees, while the Lucid dropped over seven degrees, showing incredible results for heat dissipation. Lucid vs Linenspa: Motion isolation Motion isolation refers to the way movement is transferred through a mattress. Motion isolation is important for couples or people who share a bed with pets, so your sleep isn't interrupted by twitching legs or midnight zoomies. To test motion isolation, I placed a soda can near the middle of the bed. Then, I dropped a 15-pound weight a foot away from the can 10 times while observing if the can shifted, tipped, or fell over completely. The two mattress toppers had comparable motion isolation, with the Lucid narrowly edging out the Linenspa in its ability to minimize motion transfer. The can tipped over twice in my Lucid test, whereas it tipped over three times on the Linenspa. This is probably because the Lucid topper uses softer foam, so motion is easily absorbed into the material. Subjectively, I never felt movements from my dog or boyfriend when testing either topper. Both toppers are a solid choice for couples and people with pets, though you might feel a little bit of movement across the bed if your sleeping companions are particularly restless. Lucid vs Linenspa: Trial and warranty policies The Lucid and Linenspa mattress toppers can be returned within 30 days of purchase and come with a 3-year limited warranty. Lucid's warranty covers manufacturing defects but doesn't apply to general wear and tear, indentations less than 1.5 inches deep, stains, misuse, third-party repair, damage from transit, or commercial use. Linenspa's warranty covers the same things, but excludes coverage of indentations less than 0.75 inches deep. If you successfully claim your warranty, Lucid and Linenspa will issue a repair, replacement, or refund. The bottom line With its support and subtle feel, the Linenspa was the victor in the Lucid vs Linenspa match. Kinsley Searles/Business Insider The Lucid Bamboo Charcoal Mattress Topper and the Linenspa Memory Foam Mattress Topper are both excellent, supportive budget options that excel in cooling and have good motion isolation. I recommend side sleepers and those who want to sink into the foam to go with the Lucid, while back and stomach sleepers will appreciate the more balanced feel of the Linenspa topper. If you're stuck between the two, I recommend the Linenspa: it's best for most people and will cost about $10 less than the Lucid.

At the end is a solar panel, which can be secured to a railing or other platform, or staked into the ground, and the lights last for up to six hours.

And they didn't string lights add a charm to any outside space, whether they are wrapped around a tree, hung on a veranda, across a pagoda, or on fencing.

My favorite leggings serve Lululemon style for less — and they're just $28 at Amazon right now
It's no secret that Lululemon is one of the most coveted fitness brands on the market. I particularly love their popular Align leggings, but the price can be pretty steep. However, I've found a legging alternative that both you and your bank account will love. HeyNuts is an Amazon storefront that essentially makes stylish and high-quality fitness apparel at a fraction of the price. In fact, their Work Out Pro leggings resemble Lululemon in style, but certainly not when it comes to the price tag. Case in point: you can grab the leggings for just $28 on Amazon. I personally own a few pairs of these comfortable and durable leggings and I think they're totally worth the hype. If you're in the market for some Lululemon leggings but don't want to pay the hefty price, these HeyNuts leggings are the next best thing. Durable, comfortable and flattering, the high-quality leggings feature a wide waistband with tummy control. You can also stash your essentials in the convenient inner pocket. They're available in a plethora of colors and you can even choose from a few different lengths depending on your height or where you'd like the leggings to fall. In my opinion, HeyNuts leggings look and feel just like Lululemon leggings — and they're literally a fraction of the price. They also come in a rainbow of colors. I've been wearing them for a few years now, and I can attest to the fact that they're super durable and won't pill or rip — even after several washes. The leggings are also extremely versatile. I've worn them when running errands, while working out at the gym, during yoga and pilates classes and even just lounging around at home. They are extremely comfortable and flattering. You can also pick from several different lengths depending on your height. As someone who is short, this is a huge selling point. It's fair to say I'm a huge fan of these leggings for many reason — which is why I recommend trying out a pair for yourself. At $28, these Lululemon lookalikes are totally worth a purchase.
