Whether you're staying in or going out, you'll look *and* feel good in these buttery soft biker shorts.
Unless otherwise specified, all sizes in this post are listed in women's.
1. A crewneck sweater that some reviewers say feels like a Barefoot Dreams blanket! I mean who wouldn't want a sweater that feels like they are being wrapped up in a warm fuzzy blanket all day long?
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "I splurged on Ugg sweaters last year and loved their softness and quality, so I was eager to find something similar. This sweater is a great find! The small fits with a nice oversized look without being too large. The pink color is subtle and a nice pop of color for colder months. Will be buying in another color." — A sly
Get it from Amazon for $44.99+ (available in sizes XS–XL and in 27 colors).
2. A scoop neck top, which might just fool some people into thinking you hopped on the Skims train... BUT you got this for less than half the price! Many reviewers love the double lining and how buttery soft it feels so much that they bought it in different colors!
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "At first, I was a little skeptical — I have been wanting to find a Skims-like material shirt for a while but didn't want to pay the price of one, LOL, and this shirt feels amazing. I will be getting one in every color now." — Julianne
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in sizes XS–3XL and in 34 colors).

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "I love them, they fit perfectly. They are truly high waisted, they hug all the right places and make the bum look like a snack!!!

Quince
I have this, and I absolutely love it! It's so soft and probably my favorite sweater in my closet. It's lightweight but not see-through at all. Even after washing it, it feels so soft. It looks great tucked into a pair of jeans paired with a belt!

Promising review: "Versatile crop sweater that is perfect for winter to spring transition! Paired with my favorite cropped denim, but plan to also wear with high-waisted shorts this spring. I love that you can wear on or off the shoulder. One of my favorite affordable Amazon brands where you can count on great quality/on-trend product at a great price!" — denasdailydeals
Get it from Amazon for $43.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and 17 colors).

I just wanted something to lounge around the house in, but I think if I wore a cute sweater or jacket, I could wear this to work. I will probably buy another in a lighter color since my life includes a lot of dog hair.' — Stephanie Gottfried

10. A shirred going-out top perfect for when you want to go to dinner with your friends right after a long day of work.

Target
Promising review: "I tried these on a whim, and they're a perfect fit. The seams and the pleats lay well and don't stick out or pucker. The inseam length is spot on, not too long or too short.

Get them from Target for $20 (originally $25, available in sizes 0–26 and in six colors).

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
This set comes with a top, pants, and a long cardigan!
Promising review:"No joke, these are pretty much exactly the same as my Skims lounge set for half the price. The pants graze the tops of my feet even when I wear them high-waisted at my belly button, so I think they're plenty long. The robe is like wearing a blanket, but still looks put together. Anyway, I'm back here to buy a second color because I loved them so much!" — Jenna
Get the three-piece set from Amazon for $54.99 (available in sizes S–XL and in 23 colors).

Promising review: "I never leave reviews but this jumpsuit deserves one!! It is an exact alternative for the Aritzia flared jumpsuit. I actually even like this one more than my one from Aritzia!! The length on this is SO much better. I am 5'7 and the Aritzia one just barely goes past my ankles… I am wearing platform sandals with this one and there's still extra length! Also I am 28 weeks pregnant and a small fits my bump, SO stretchy!! Definitely ordering more colors." — Stuart W.

H&M

Drop a tablet in a glass of warm water, then add your mouthguard, retainer, or Invisalign to help demolish odor-causing bacteria, discoloration, and plaque.

How this hasn't earned its rightful recognition yet is beyond me, tbh. A roll of toilet sealant tape if you have no intention of picking up a tube of caulk in this lifetime or the next.

You'll be shocked by how quickly and easily this stuff can lift the stains you've been battling for ages — everything from messes in the oven to scuff marks on shoes to hard water stains in the shower. A dryer vent cleaning system with gag-worthy results but I promise the sheer relief will be worth it. This thing sucks out all the lint and dust trapped in your dryer vent — it can remove buildup that's up to 12 feet long!

25 Disney And Universal Theme Park Essentials
Hey guys! I'm Samar Hadri, a BuzzFeed shopping writer and Orlando, Florida native 🍊. I've been a Disney World *and* Universal Studios Annual Passholder for well over a decade (I may or may not have even gotten married at Disney 😅), so yeah, I'm something of a theme park expert. These are the products that I've tried and can recommend firsthand to make sure your amusement park experience is as smooth and stress-free as possible. With these products, you can feel prepared for almost any situation that pops up during a full day of trudging through the parks. First things first, a mid-size sling backpack to carry all of your essentials, while being small enough to fit in the pouch of whichever rides you love the most. With several compartments inside the bag, as well as a front pouch on the strap, you can keep everything incredibly organized to cut down on the time it takes for you to dig for your phone for spontaneous photos or sunscreen for your two-hour reapplications. Plus, it even has mesh pockets for your water bottle and umbrella! A reusable rain poncho for the buckets of water that can suddenly, without warning, drop from the Florida skies. With a long body piece and a big hooded cap, this poncho will keep you dry head to toe. It also comes with a matching carrying case so you don't have to worry about lugging a drenched poncho around the park after your excursion down a "waterfall" at Kali River Rapids in Animal Kingdom. A four-pack of cooling towels because that Florida sun can be brutal. Just soak it in some cold water at any sink/water fountain, wring it, and place it on your neck for some much-needed relief! These towels will stay chilly for several hours, saving you from having to refresh in every country you pass through in Epcot. Bonus: each towel comes with a carrying pouch and a carabiner clip, so you can just clip it onto your backpack for easy access! A Disney ear holder that clips onto your backpack for the times when your head is tired of propping up those famous Mickey ears (or new Universal headbands!), but you still want them on public display. With the ability to hold up to two ears, this strap is great for parents when your little ones might be over wearing the ears, and you don't want them to take up any space in your bag. A trendy pair of polarized sunglasses to block out the sun's rays while you're enjoying the weather. No need to fear losing these bad boys while aboard Hagrid's Motorbike Adventure at Universal; these polarized glasses (while cute) are extremely affordable, so you can even keep a backup pair on hand in case Fluffy happens to board your ride and run away with your original pair! A handheld fan that will bring some much-needed cooling relief as you trek your way through your favorite rides. Small and compact, with two different speed functions, this fan is a necessity, especially during the height of summer. No need to let the humidity ruin your day, this FAN-tastic device will ensure your vacation remains as cool as can be. (Plus: the fan also works as a backup portable charger!) And a stroller fan so that your little one stays cool in the heat as well! The fan's head can adjust vertically and horizontally in any direction to create the perfect cooling breeze, while also having three speeds so you can ensure your baby is the perfect temperature. Now, the fear of your child overheating can disappear as swiftly as Peter Pan at the sight of an adult! A four-pack of reusable straws because absolutely nobody enjoys the taste of the soggy paper straws that grace every Disney concession stand and restaurant. This straw is collapsible and fits into a small carrying case, which can also be clipped onto your backpack, making it incredibly convenient to carry without feeling like it's taking up some much-needed space. Absolutely perfect for that midday Pandoran Sunrise you'll be happy to sample at Animal Kingdom. A Body Glide anti-chafe balm you'll want to apply liberally before starting your day at Universal City Walk. The last thing you want during your vacation is any pain halting your ability to walk freely through the parks. With this balm, say goodbye to chafing troubles and say hello to magical relief! And an anti-blister foot balm to ease the pain of walking over 10 miles through four different parks, all in a single day. This will add a layer of protection between you and your shoes so you can skip through Diagon Alley with ZERO pain! Vanish the potential of blisters with this balm — even Hermione herself would be jealous of how magical this product seems! A two-pack of reusable snack bags because sometimes hunger pangs hit right in the middle of a line, when exiting to purchase a bite to eat is pretty much impossible. These bags come with a zippered closure and are made from waterproof fabric, so no need to fear the splatters from Tiana's Bayou Adventure tainting your go-to snack. A foldable water bottle that will take up little space and be the hydrating savior of your park day. Buying several bottles of water while inside the park will get expensive FAST, so having a refillable bottle on hand is key, especially when they can roll into a small size so that they don't take up too much room. A much-needed addition to your park essentials when you find yourself incredibly thirsty while waiting to meet Toothless. A 10-pack of mosquito-repellent bracelets you will be incredibly grateful you packed when love-bug season hits Florida. Powered by essential oils such as citronella, these bands can help repel the pests without the need to douse yourself in bug spray several times a day. No mosquito will dare approach you as you embark on your theme park adventures; these bracelets will help keep the creepy-crawlies far, far away! A tube of Neutrogena Ultrasheer SPF 70 sunscreen to protect your skin from the harsh rays of the sun. This lightweight formula helps prevent sunburn without the heavy finish and is conveniently travel-sized, making it the perfect addition to your pre-Disney routine. With this lotion, the only sun you need to fear is the one that comes barreling toward you on Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind. A pack of compression socks that can help your circulation, foot swelling, and pain, and make it easier for you to hike across the Magic Kingdom parking lot. You can say goodbye to the days of leg swelling and hello to *sweet* relief as you march countless miles each day of your trip. Don't let the potential pain stop you from having the time of your life at the Happiest Place on Earth! A Color Wow Dreamcoat anti-frizz hairspray to maintain those picture-perfect locks, despite the heat! This spray repels moisture to stop humidity from impacting your hair, leaving your hair feeling smooth and silky. Just spray it liberally on damp, towel-dried hair, then blow dry for the finishing touch. With this spray, your blowout will stay as perfect as Princess Belle herself! A Burt's Bees after-sun lotion perfect for bringing some relief to any sunburns that may occur while you're skipping across Tomorrow Land. With aloe and coconut oil, this skin lotion can soothe and bring hydrating relief to your sun-kissed skin. An Anker portable charger because you will be constantly using your phone to check the wait times, plan ahead with your Genie+, or just playing Charades with your family (or random strangers) while stuck in a line. Don't let its slim exterior fool you; this device is one of the highest reviewed power banks on Amazon for a reason. It can charge a smartphone up to three times while still being light enough to comfortably carry around Hollywood Studios as you search for hidden Mickeys! A pill organizer to keep all of your meds on hand so that you're not trying to dig through your bag for different bottles. With eight multi-size compartments, this carrier can safely store any size pill or vitamin you need. Small enough to fit in your pocket, this organizer will be your saving grace as you attempt to squeeze in just one more plushy from the Emporium into your bag. A travel umbrella designed to block out both the constant Florida showers and the overbearing midday sun. This is a heavy-duty umbrella has eight sturdy fiberglass ribs, making it incredibly wind-resistant, while still being able to fold into a small size. Don't miss your chance to join the line for Pandora's Flight of Passage just because of a little rain, this umbrella will help you make the most of your day no matter the weather! A set of travel perfume carriers that can hold all of your favorite eau de parfums as you make your way around The Isle of Berk. After sweating under the sun for a whole day, you will be happy you packed these sprays so that you can refresh yourself at your convenience.

Designed to remove even the toughest of stains, this spray is a necessity when wrangling your family through the parks while attempting to keep their clothes Instagram-worthy. A three-pack of Disney-inspired lanyards so your family can keep their key cards strapped close to them at all times. With pouches to hold any additional cards or cash, these are great for anyone trying to waltz around Disney without the feeling of being weighed down by a wallet. Perhaps one of the most important items on this list, these ID holders are necessary for those who tend to misplace things more often than not. A pair of aqua socks to protect your feet and save you from any pool slipping incidents while at Typhoon Lagoon or Volcano Bay. Super lightweight and flexible, these socks are perfect for your water excursions during your ultimate Disney vacation! A hand sanitizer holder because you should always have one on hand when you're in a place as crowded as Disney or Universal. Hook these cute keychains to your backpack and don't fear losing them on the monorail, your favorite scented sanitizer is always close by! Ta-da! I declare you ready for your theme park adventure!
