Our Affordable Summer Must-Haves From 8 It Girls

Looking for festive yet affordable summer clothes? Welcome to the club. So where do you start? What's worth buying for the summer months when you spend a majority of your day in the office where a crop top and a denim miniskirt aren't welcome? For questions like these, we love turning to the fashion It girls who somehow always find the most amazing affordable clothing.

To help narrow down the infinite list of summer items you think you need, we chose seven pieces that passed the must-have test. Instead of basic shorts and slide sandals, fashion girls are thinking more outside the box this season, meaning you're about to shop zebra mules, linen midi dresses, and more. Yes, you can do it, and no, you won't look crazy.

Go on to discover the affordable summer clothes It girls are convincing us to buy this year.

1. Wrap tops have become this season's most coveted trend, being worn by It girls left and right. We love this bright and cheery version that is both cute and affordable.

2. Plaid pants are a year-round favorite, so, therefore, owning multiple pairs is a must. Grab them in a fun color for summertime and use to pair with a vintage-inspired tee.

3. Nothing screams summertime fun like a pair of funky and bright colored sunglasses. Don't be afraid to be bold or bright—the more extra the better.

4. There is no shame in owning an abundance of white blouses, especially when they are as dreamy as this one. Opt for a pair of your favorite Levi's to complete this 'fit and you'll be on your way.

5. Oh, how we love crop tops. With only three short months to fully embrace this style, feel free to go crazy. Like, hot-pink sweater–style crazy.

6. An off-the-shoulder dress is the best way to showcase your new tan lines. Go for a button-detailed mini version to stay on-trend.

7. Last but not least, we give you the must-have floral dress of the summer. Perfect for casual beach days or light lunches in the city, this dress gives off just the right amount of festive summer fun.

8. Swap your go-to denim for a fresh pair of white cropped flares. Everything from the color to the shape will have your everyday wardrobe feeling more summery in no time.
