I’m Living in These 8 Comfy Summer Fashion Basics from Madewell and J.Crew

I’m a bit of a homebody, but I make it a point to put on real clothes every day. I don’t dress in elaborate dresses or uncomfortable pants, but I make it a point to dress cute and comfortable. In the summer, I wear lightweight linen pants, t-shirt dresses, tank tops, and sweat shorts. I feel good, which pushes me to be more productive, while still being dressed in a way that’s compatible with my bed. And my sofa.

On the other hand, if I need to run errands, I’m ready to go at any time. I simply throw on some sunglasses, a pair of comfy sandals and throw a cardigan over my shoulders – you won’t even be able to tell I spent the day relaxing on the couch. If you’re looking to stock up on comfortable everyday pieces, I’ve rounded up eight of my most-loved summer fashion basics from J.Crew, Madewell, Aritzia, and Amazon below, and they’re all under $100.

8 Comfortable Fashion Essentials:

What I love most about this capsule of pieces is that they can be styled interchangeably and enhanced with accessories. My current uniform is Madewell’s Supima Rib Tee in white with the dazzling gray hue of Aritzia’s Sontag Linen Trousers. It’s a more comfortable alternative to jeans, and I can wear it with sneakers or sandals; it’s also great for the beach if you swap the T-shirt with Artfish’s sleeveless tank top. I’m also obsessed with the boxer brief trend. Even though it looks like pajamas, if styled well, it gives Scandinavian chic. I live in the End-on-End Cotton Boxer Short version from J.Crew and pair it with an oversized button-down shirt from Hotouch for added coverage.
