Promising review: "Best travel dress yet! So flowy and comfortable, and I absolutely love that it is 100% cotton — no polyester here! It has a nice, relaxed fit. It can also be worn right out of the suitcase, as the wrinkles seem to fall out after a bit of wear. Plus, the style sort of lends itself to a relaxed look if it isn’t perfectly crisp and ironed. Wore it in the sweltering heat of vacation, and it was a dream. Could easily be a beach cover-up unbuttoned as well." —Kristal Cardone

Promising reviews: "Bought these because they kind of reminded me of the Steve Madden Slinky sandals. I wore them through a whole week of walking around on vacation, and man, they were soooo comfortable. I was the only person who came home without blisters. 🤣 I also have wide feet, and these were stretchy and became more comfortable over time. I absolutely love them, way more than I anticipated!" —Tamlyn
"These shoes are fantastic! I used them for my two-week trip to Europe. So easy to dress up or dress down, and incredibly comfortable. I walked five miles a day in Italy on the uneven cobblestone, no blisters, no sore feet, nada! 10/10 recommend!!" —Natasha B.

Promising review: "This skirt was exactly what I was looking for! We went to Disney in September, so I knew it would be hot. The skirt was very comfortable; the shorts underneath are awesome, and I can’t function without a pocket in my pants, so these checked all the boxes! Super cute and flowy; also perfect for my Snow White look." —MaryAnn Brescia
Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and 32 colors).
Promising reviews: "This dress is EVERYTHING I hoped for and more! The floral print is vibrant, but not too loud — it gives such a soft, feminine look that’s perfect for spring and summer. I wore it to a brunch and had three people ask where I got it! The fabric is lightweight and breathable, making it ideal for warm weather, but it’s not see-through at all. It hugs in all the right places and flows beautifully — fits perfectly without being tight. I especially love the waistline and how it gives that effortlessly put-together look. The fit was true to size. If you're on the fence, GET IT. You won’t regret adding this to your wardrobe!" —Jazzyymannn

Promising review: "Love these! I purchased two different colors for a vacation to Mexico, and I wore them the whole time. They wrinkle easily, but that’s just the type of fabric; there's not much you can do about that. They’re not see-through and are breathable. Good quality for the price. True to size." —Macie

Promising review: "I wore this on vacation to Cozumel for five days. I burn very easily and wanted a wide-brimmed hat for the sun. It packed well and retained its shape throughout the trip. It provided great sun protection. I even got it wet a few times, and it kept its shape fine. I would highly recommend this for sun protection and travel." —Jean Boone

Promising reviews: "I absolutely love this beach cover-up, and I wear it on every single vacation I go on. There are little sparkles on it, which make it look super boutique! I recommend! Very true to size." —Amazon Customer
"I absolutely loved this cover-up. Perfect for my Mexico vacation. I wore it every day. It was light enough and breezy enough that it could easily be worn in the heat, but it also sheltered me a bit from the beach wind and helped me stay warm. Definitely the best of both worlds. The color was a nice, bright white. Can't wait to reuse for my bachelorette party as well." —Sarah

"Looked just like the picture on me. It was loose and not tight, which means the cut was perfect! Value for the money was on point. It was not made of cheap fabric. Pretty lightweight and comfortable, so good for travel!" —nggomez2007

Promising reviews: "This dress is everything! So cute. When I first pulled it out of the package, it looked really short, so I was nervous, but it turned out to be the perfect length! The built-in shorts were really helpful as well, and kept me from ever feeling exposed." —Reagan Rainey
"I bought this dress for a Vegas trip, and it fulfilled every expectation! It was comfortable, flowy, and lightweight, yet still had good coverage. I dressed it up with a pair of heels, but it is very versatile and could also be dressed down/worn more casually with a pair of sandals. I recommend sizing up if you want more length, as it was a bit short. I will be buying it in another color!" —Tia Martin
Get it from Amazon for $37.99+ (available in sizes XXS–XXL and 25 colors/prints).
Promising review: "I bought this bikini for my Cancun trip, and it exceeded my expectations! The material feels soft but holds its shape, even after swimming in the ocean. The tie-back top makes it easy to adjust for the perfect fit, and the bottoms aren't too revealing. The white color looks so fresh and stands out beautifully, especially with a tan. I paired it with the floral sarong, and it was perfect for beach photos. Definitely worth it for anyone looking for a tropical and comfortable bikini for vacation!" —User

"Love this dress! Very comfortable, great fabric, well-made, and stylish. I have received so many compliments when wearing this dress. I love the color, it’s lightweight, and has a partial lining, so it’s not see-through. I need one in every color! Great price too, I would expect to pay more for it." —Debra Fraser

Reviewers suggest sizing up!
Promising review: "Best Hermès swap. I wore these on vacation and loved them. They're very versatile and can be worn dressed up or down. They are comfortable, high quality, and I received several compliments on my white toenails, which made the tan pop. Size up a half a size if you have wider feet, the middle can get a bit tight, and you'll appreciate having a bit more space." —Qua Price
Get them from Amazon for $41.30+ (available in sizes 5–12, wide sizes, and 22 colors).
Windsor
Promising review: "Really pretty. Stand out among all my floral dresses. Received so many compliments. Special on the dance floor when I wore it on a Caribbean cruise." —Elaine B.
Get it from Windsor for $29.97 (originally $79.90; available in sizes XS–L).
Promising review: "This was an impulse buy for my last tropical vacation, and 10 out of 10 would buy again. The material is super soft and comfortable to wear. The fit is true to size. I think the outfit is super cute, especially when you wear the skirt low-rise. The material is very stretchy and is thick enough to hold the boobs in. Would say that it’s a very sturdy material with the front part of the top being double-lined for extra security." —Caroline Davis
Get it from Amazon for $41.99 (available in sizes XS–XL and 16 colors/prints).
Akira
Promising review: "This dress is beautiful! I wore it on my vacation in Florida and got so many compliments. Very well made." —Sandra B.
