Brunches, parties, pickleball, a weekend getaway — whatever you’re doing, these picks will help you stay chic and comfortable.

Promising review: "Very good basic skirt. I purchased this skirt in both black and beige sizes L (12–14), 5' 2", 170 lbs. The fabric is a linen blend. 80 Rayon/ 20 Linen. It's a good medium-weight, softer than most pure linen. The skirt has pockets that are close to the body and do not add bulk at the hips. They have an elastic waistband at the back. The skirt is about 2–4 inches above my ankle at 5'2". You can pull it up higher or pull it down on your hips. It's a comfortable pencil skirt! It has a kick pleat at the side, which goes up about 10 inches, so you can walk with ease, but not so high that anything shows. It's modest yet stylish. I'm really pleased with my purchase. It will wrinkle because of the linen content. Haven't washed it yet." —anonymous

Price: $7.15+ (available in sizes XS, M–XXXL and two colors)

Promising review: "Very comfortable, fabric is not too heavy, and it looks and feels great. I ordered seven different colors." —connie

Price: $14.97+ (originally $26.99, available in sizes 1X–5X and 12 colors)

Promising review: "Perfect! This dress is so cute! I get compliments whenever I wear it. It washes well and doesn't shrink in the dryer. If I had to come up with something negative to say about the dress, I would say it's a little long, but I don't mind the length. I'm 5'8", and with shoes on, it goes to the floor. I think everything about this dress is perfect! I chose the cherry blossom print." —Jackie

Price: $18.08 (originally $35.58, available in sizes S–4XL and 24 colors)

Promising review: "Adorable! Super cute little dress! I'm very tall, so I wear a '90s look and wear the short knee-length leggings underneath! Haha...love love the dress! Very cute, comfy dress to wear anywhere! I get a compliment on the dress wherever I go!" —Debbie

Price: $35.76+ (available in sizes XS–2XL and four colors)

Promising review: "I got 3 different prints and I love them. The fabric isn't necessarily cool like cotton, but because of the way it flows and doesn't hug the body, it's fine for hot weather. Sooo comfortable and is perfect for lounging, after a swim, or with cute shoes and a necklace can be worn out." —Juanita

Price: $12.99+ (available in sizes 1X–5X and 20 colors)

Promising review: "Fit is great. The length is great. The colors are very nice. Skirt is very lightweight but not see-through. Perfect for summer. Got lots of compliments. I have even worn it as a bathing suit cover-up or dressed it up for church." —Lynda

Price: $13.98 (available in sizes S–2XL and 16 colors)

Promising review: "Just do it! Super cute! The top is very forgiving for those with a larger chest, thanks to the stretchy material. Great dress for work, easy to dress up or make casual." —Charissa

Price: $11.48+ (available in sizes XS–4X and two colors)

Promising review: "This tennis outfit is so soft and comfortable. It's just as nice as one from a dedicated sporting goods store, but at a third of the price. I love it!" —elaine

Price: $24.99 (originally $32.99+; available in sizes S–2XL and six colors)

Promising review: "Great skirt. This tennis skirt is very cute and fits perfectly. The material is comfortable and stretchy, and the waistband does not roll. It has a slight A-line and would look good on any figure type, perfect for hiking, tennis, Disneyland, or just running errands around town." —Jennifer

Promising review: "Wasn't sure what to expect from this little dress, but when I saw it online, I decided I'd give it a try. So glad that I did! It's very comfortable, true to size, love the pockets, and can't wait to wear it throughout the summer!" —DR

Price: $18.79 (originally $32.28, available in sizes S–2XL and nine colors)

Promising review: "This dress was exactly what I was looking for. I will order more in other colors. It was comfortable, white, and still professional-looking. This dress is the perfect length, and the tie around the waist is in the perfect place. I wore a pair of canvas-type sneakers, but they can definitely be dressed up with different shoes. It has been very hot and humid where I live, so the light cotton fabric was perfect." —addie

Price: $10.99+ (originally $29.98, available in sizes S–2XL and 10 colors)

Promising review: "Love this skort! It's the perfect blend of cute and functional. It looks like a flirty little skirt, but feels like your favorite comfy shorts. I love how lightweight and breathable the fabric is — perfect for hot days. The double-layer ruffle hem adds a stylish touch without being too much. I've worn it with sneakers for errands and dressed it up with sandals for brunch — it seriously works for everything. So versatile and easy to style, it's quickly become one of my favorite pieces in my closet!" —Kristen

Price: $14.79 (originally $25.99, available in sizes S–2XL and 15 colors)

Promising review: "Cute, easy to style, staple dress. Lightweight fabric, not too precious but super fun print. Held hands with my childhood self by styling with ruffled socks and tennis shoes to teach in; looked cute with a sweater, and also styled with a brown collared sweatshirt for cooler weather seasons. Great price, would consider this a staple, versatile piece in my wardrobe. Fits at different weights." —anonymous

Price: $14.99 (originally $27.99, available in sizes S–2XL and nine colors)

*Note: also displayed with this dress are several colors in a long-sleeve variation*

Promising review: "True to plus-size. The material is lightweight yet not see-through. So cute and comfortable. Not too short for a plus-size tall girl. This would be perfect for something to wear to work or clean the house." —Heath 

Price: $16.99+ (originally $37.78, available in sizes S–XL and 14 colors)

Promising review: "Best dress ever. I absolutely love this dress! The deep navy background creates such an elegant contrast with the bright, vibrant pink flowers. The material is beautifully lightweight and flows perfectly, making it incredibly comfortable to wear all day. I received so many compliments when I wore it to a recent party. It fits true to size, and the fabric doesn't wrinkle easily. Highly recommend!" —Thoressa
