The temperature just keeps rising, and to withstand it in style, there’s only one thing I can think of doing: going on a little shopping spree. Nothing too crazy, just a hunt for a few essentials and lightweight pieces that won’t let me down. Think chic tank tops, beaded sandals, and a few statement pieces here and there. Now, I’m on a strict budget this summer to save for other important purchases and a rainy day, but I can’t help but yearn for a few new items to live in my summer wardrobe.

The best places I turn to when I want to shop but also don’t want to overspend are Zara, J.Crew, and Aritzia. Currently, Aritzia is having a 50%-off sale on most items on its site, and I’ve been itching to shop it, and Zara and J.Crew are always trusty sites to shop affordable, high-quality items. I’ve scrolled endlessly throughout each site, but these 30 items are the best of the new arrivals to shop for summer. I wouldn’t dare gatekeep, so keep scrolling if you’re on the hunt for some summer items to add to your wardrobe.
