Summer is chaotic in the most random way. One minute you’re just stepping out for iced coffee, the next you’re being dragged to a brunch, a cookout, or a friend’s “quick” day trip plan that turns into a full-on production.
And if you’re anything like me, you want to look cute without spending two hours trying things on—or spending $500 on a bunch of outfits that still don’t solve your actual what-to-wear moments.
That’s where Amazon comes in.
Almost everything I’ve been wearing this summer—whether it’s for beach days that turn into dinner, errand runs that turn social, or just sitting on the porch trying to look like I have plans—has come straight from my Prime account. These pieces are comfy, they’re actually flattering, and they work for the real-life stuff—not just the aesthetic moments you see on Instagram.
So instead of giving you a list of random tops and sandals, I’m walking you through 30 real scenarios from this season—and the exact pieces that got me through them looking like I had it all together.
1. For the iced coffee run that accidentally turned into a five-hour hangout.
I just needed caffeine, but somehow I ended up outside all day. This outfit had to be cute and able to survive surprise plans.
