I Know These Oversize and Stretchy Pieces Will Fit, so I'm Buying Them Online

As far back as I can remember, comfort has always reigned supreme when it comes to my closet. Trends that I love come and go, but I only admire them from afar because I know I wouldn't be able to last long wearing them. For instance, the platform-sandal trend happening right now looks super cool when I spot it on my Instagram feed, but there is no way I will be partaking. However, a trending style that I can 100% get on board with at the moment is oversize pieces as well as stretchy options.
Oversize fashion currently comes in many covetable forms—everything from boxy T-shirts and voluminous dresses to slouchy matching sets. These roomy pieces not only hide most of my insecurities, but they also create stylish silhouettes that I can't get enough of. As for the stretchy pieces, there are a plethora of cool options that feature trendy details like ribbed knitting and smocking. What's even better is when both oversize and stretchy designs come together for the maximum level of comfort without sacrificing a moment of style. With this in mind, keep scrolling to see what's in my virtual cart for spring and summer.
