1. H&M Linen-Blend Pull-On Pants
Everybody needs at least one pair of linen pants to carry them through the summer, and this breezy pair is a lightweight and effortless choice. The monochromatic cream shade is versatile enough to be paired with a range of blouses and casual tees. The loose fit means no overheating, and there are several other colors to choose from should you be in a more playful mood. The only downside? These pants wrinkle easily, which means you may have to break out your steamer before slipping them on.
2. H&M Skinny High Denim Shorts
In case you haven't heard, the '90s are still trending, which means, slightly baggy shorts are back. These skinny high denim shorts blend a certain chic quality with a retro vibe of something your dad would have worn to the beach back in the day. Neither too long nor too short, they're also uber comfortable. Pair them with a long-sleeved top and a pair of high tops, and you'll be good to go.
3. H&M Beach Knit Dress
A beach dress is a necessity that you can never own too many of—especially in a sleek black knit that just might outshine the eye-catching bikini you have on underneath. Featuring a classic silhouette, a scoop neckline, and wide straps that will accentuate your shoulders nicely, this is a flattering option everybody needs in their closet.
4. H&M Printed T-Shirt
Who says you have too many graphic t-shirts? Certainly not me because I collect them. Choose between several sleek designs; either way, the relaxed cut of the shirts ensure a comfortable fit that's not so oversized that it drowns your frame.
5. H&M Sloped Brim Straw Hat
This slouchy straw hat has a minimalist look that subtly elevates whatever outfit you’re wearing with it. As one buyer exclaims, “OMG! Bought this in a large and I’m obsessed! Love the oversized look!” You can dress it up with a beachy jumpsuit or dress it down with a pair of denim shorts and a shirt.
6. H&M Intertwined Strap Sandals
Gone are the days of walking in pain in super high stilettos. While we still like getting dressed up in the summer, we're opting for comfier looks now. These strappy sandals do the trick with their carefully constructed (PU) material and padded midsole, making them an elevated must-have for your wardrobe.
7. H&M Flared Mini Skirt
Set aside your traditional A-line skirts and select a flared mini instead. This one has modern details like a woven fabric material, a wide waist section that includes sharping darts in the back and a concealed zipper that makes for easily slipping on and off.
8. H&M DryMove Tennis Skirt
Tennis skirts are all the rage right now, thanks to likes of Taylor Swift and Zendaya, so how about getting in on the action? You’ll definitely want to scoop up this tennis skirt, which features a high waist and a functional fabric that will keep you dry as you’re moving. You’ll certainly serve wearing this skirt.
9. H&M Straw Shopper Tote
This utilitarian tote comes in two different colorways and is made with braided paper straw. It also comes with two different handles, so you can carry it as a handbag or a shoulder bag. Did I mention that it’s under $40?
10. H&M Belted Dress
A little V-neck dress is a stunner with its raglan balloon sleeves, woven fabric and wrap front. The dainty design and cut makes it both a casual piece you can wear while lunching with your besties, and a formal piece you can pair with pumps for a sexy date night.
11. H&M Halterneck Swimsuit
Because you obviously need a swimsuit to go underneath that super cute dress you already have in your cart…right? How about this halterneck one-piece, which features a V-neck and a lowcut back? I’m also quite fond of the high-cut legs.
12. H&M Oval Sunglasses
Lean into the ‘90s aesthetic fully this summer with a pair of oval sunglasses. Reviewers say they frame your face nicely and work well with a range of outfits. “Super cute oval sunnies. The color is perfect for spring and summer,” says one buyer. I completely agree.
13. H&M Baggy High Jeans
Take it back to basics with these baggy jeans. Between the loose fit and the waist-framing design, I guarantee you’ll fall in love with these. The jeans come in a range of colorways, including a bright white that you can absolutely wear after Labor Day.
14. H&M Ribbed Tank Top
Never underestimate a simple tank top. While H&M has plenty to choose from in this regard, I’m particularly fond of this ribbed number, as it’s crafted in a cotton jersey fabric that feels amazing against your skin, and a flattering round neckline that brings just the right amount of attention to your shoulders and torso.
15. H&M Chunky Dome Earrings
Last but not least, I couldn’t forget to include a pair of statement earrings to round things out here. Accessorizing instantly upgrades any outfit, and this $6 metallic pair comes highly reviewed by buyers. The size is perfect not too big, not too small and not too thick,” states a reviewer, with another adding: “Cute normal size earrings. Not too big, not too small. Very elegant as well!” You don’t always have to spend hundreds of dollars on jewelry, and these earrings prove it.
