I was in the water, streets, sand, and even hiking in these shoes and felt nothing but comfort. Being able to wear something transitional between the water and land was perfect for this trip.

Promising review: "It’s lovely. They call it a cover-up, but I wore it with dress pants and a white shell top. I received several compliments. I have purchased a few more in different colors. Nice and long. Comfortable. Seems durable so far. Don’t wear it for warmth though — it might protect from sun or a slight breeze, but it is more for looks than warmth." —MAC

www.amazon.com, Jenae Sitzes / BuzzFeed

Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping editor Jenae Sitzes says: "Hi, I have these and can't recommend them more!! That's me on the right above — as you can see, I wore them as part of my Reputation-inspired outfit for the Taylor Swift Eras Tour, but I've worn them several other times, with and without tights, and absolutely love them. As a pear-shaped individual, I love that they comfortably cover my bottom while still hugging me at the waist thanks to the stretchy elastic there, aka no awful gapping. As other reviewers mention, these have a thickness to them that makes them feel high quality. In the summer, I do sweat in these a little at the waist, which is to be expected, but the wide-leg design helps keep everything else breezy. I can't wait to wear these in the fall and winter with thicker tights! Oh, and the pockets are nice and deep!"

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "These jeggings are great! They’re super cute, soft, and fit really well. I didn’t realize they were going to be 'waist cinching' or whatever (I didn’t read the description as I just saw them on TikTok and ordered), so they are right and kind of difficult to get on, but once I got them on, they were snug and actually really comfortable! Probably going to order another pair!" —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $28.31+ (available in sizes 2–28, three inseams, and 20 colors).

Promising review: "Lovely top, the stretch is just right and not super duper spandex like some stretchy things. Getting it on and off was a cinch. The fabric is a nice weight, somewhere between heavy and lightweight. I liked that my bra was hidden by the straps and didn't stick out anywhere, and, it isn't too short — it doesn't show belly. It will be a sweet addition to my summer wardrobe! Highly recommend." —merkie moo

Promising review: "I am randomly and surprisingly obsessed with this shirt! I didn’t expect it to fit or feel good because it’s from Amazon. But this shirt is truly fantastic. The oversized style is just right, so even if you buy your size, you’re not swimming in it. The fabric is very lightweight with a crisp hand but still feels great on your skin. And it’s also not see-through like most white shirts. It’s a great shirt on its own or as a light coverup. Can’t recommend it enough. I love it so much I just bought the brown version!" —Amanda
