As a Fashion Editor, here’s what I anticipate It Girls will be purchasing this summer for under $250.
It's surprising to realize that summer is just around the corner. In approximately three weeks, Memorial Day, which marks the unofficial beginning of the season, will arrive, leading fashion enthusiasts across the U.S. to embrace their warm-weather outfits without hesitation. For their summer attire, expect to see versatile, airy, and effortlessly stylish pieces, including taffeta or cotton poplin drawstring pants, basic tees, elevated tanks with features like collars or high V-necks, sporty jackets, and lace-trimmed camisoles. Flip-flops will be the go-to footwear, whether they're flat, kitten heels, stilettos, or wedges. Accessories like gold and silver cuff bracelets, oversized bold sunglasses, raffia tote bags, and embellished evening bags will be key in completing these looks. For those seeking guidance on specific affordable items to shop for, keep reading. Below, I present a thoughtfully curated selection of 28 summer finds under $250 that are bound to be popular.
