I’m a bit of a homebody, but I make it a point to put on real clothes every day. I don’t get all dolled up in elaborate dresses or uncomfy trousers, but I do make it a point to dress cute and comfortably. In the summer, I reach for breezy linen pants, T-shirt dresses, tank tops, and sweat shorts. I feel put together, which prompts me to be more productive, all while being dressed in a way that’s compatible with my bed and my couch.

On the flip, if I need to run errands, I’m ready to go at a moment's notice. I just throw on some sunglasses, a comfy pair of slip-on sandals, and drape a cardigan over my shoulders—you wouldn’t even be able to tell I’d been chilling on the couch all day. If you’re looking to stock up on comfy everyday pieces, I rounded up eight of my most lived-in summer fashion basics from J.Crew, Madewell, Aritzia, and Amazon below—and they’re all less than $100.

8 Comfy Fashion Essentials:

What I love most about this capsule of pieces is that they can be styled interchangeably and elevated with accessories. My current uniform is Madewell’s Supima Rib T-Shirt in white with the dazy gray shade of Aritzia’s Sontag Linen Pant. It’s a comfier alternative to jeans, and I can style it with both sneakers and 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 short trend. While it might look and feel like pajamas, if styled right, it gives Scandinavian chic. I’ve been living in J.Crew’s End-on-End Cotton Boxer Short version and pairing it with an oversized button-down shirt from Hotouch for more coverage.
