Wear yours with a cropped white tank and canvas sneaks or strappy sandals during the warm weather season. Then, you can winterize it with a chunky sweater and knee-high boots. “I miss the 90s, and I'm slightly obsessed with the throwback slip skirt trend happening now. I've ordered (and returned) a fair number of brands and styles over the past year or so. This is my favorite out of the 5 or so that I have in rotation right now," one shopper revealed. If cherry red isn’t your jam, there’s so many beautiful hues to choose from.
Available in multiple sleeve lengths depending on the current season, this faux wrap dress certainly won't go to waste in your closet. My favorite detail on this dress? The crossover sweetheart neckline that’s utterly seductive, but you'll be able to wear any bra in your arsenal. While it is a relatively bodycon silhouette, the ruched midsection adds drapey movement and the irregular hem lends additional interest. “I cannot count exactly how many compliments I received wearing this dress, but it seemed endless,” one shopper gushed.
Statement necklaces just not your jam? Here’s a minimalist lariat necklace that’s subtlety meets chic instead.

It’s thin but not see through,” the reviewer summed up. The best part? The T-shirt onesie has seamless lines, so it won’t show through your jeans or trousers. Rather drink red wine than wear the color? Check out the full dozen colorways offered instead, including classics like black, army green, and white. There’s a snap crotch closure on all for quick bathroom breaks.
Are your comfortable pajamas not exactly the cutest? You're not alone! That's why this Amazon Essentials nightshirt really comes in handy. Beware: you'll want to live in it once you feel how cozy it is. The jersey knit button-down style has contrast piping, a chest pocket, and long sleeves. "This is my favorite night gown, it's sexy, soft, and comfy,” one shopper praised. “I have washed it a few times, still soft, didn't shrink." Unbutton it a little — or a lot, depending on your mood. It’s even cute with leggings on truly cold nights.

You'd never guess that this is a bodysuit because of its effortless looser fit. Case in point: "I love that this body suit has a little bit of extra material so that you can tuck it in tight or if you choose, you can "blouse" the extra material over your pants a little bit," one shopper explained. Key details on this one-piece include a deep V neckline, subtle puffed sleeves, and wrist cuffs. Better yet? The polyester-spandex fabric is super smooth and won't dig into your skin anywhere.
Love the edge that leather lends but hate feeling restricted? (Who doesn't!) Here's one solution: Tagoo’s faux leather leggings. They look exactly like skinny pants, right down to decorative pockets and a snap closure, but come in a four-way stretch fabric that hugs your body. "Very sexy and really holds me in," one shopper remarked. They're not flimsy and can be worn in colder temps thanks to the toasty fleece lining.

It might not be an actual Alaïa waist belt, but this stunning showstopper certainly is just as chic.

This sheer mesh mock-neck top is a gorgeous option for girls’ night out when paired with a form-fitting midi skirt or leather pants. The on-trend print shown here is reminiscent of a world-class painting, but there are plain black, lace, and celestial options that are less busy to the eye. Some shoppers thought this sheer mesh top ran a tad small, so order one size up for a more comfortable fit. Once you do, you’re in for a treat. “It is comfortable, breathable, and just the right amount of cute and sexy but not too much,” one shopper attested.
How sweet is this casually sexy nightgown? It's crafted from sumptuous modal and scratch-free lace with an A-line shape and contoured triangle cups. As you can see, it's fitted on top (there's no spillage in sight) but one shopper noted that there was no built-in chest support, per se, if that’s a concern. Other shoppers reported back after a full night’s sleep — and the consensus? One reviewer wrote that it "feels great to sleep in,'' while another fan gushed that it was “like sleeping on butter."
Found: The loungewear romper you're going to live in. This cotton-blend onesie has short sleeves, an adjustable drawstring elastic waistline, and a keyhole back.

I have worn it at least once a week since I got it," one shopper revealed.
Halter tops tend to conjure images of late 90s and early 00s styles, but take a look at Dokotoo’s sleeveless halter-neck blouse for proof the shape can be done in a way that feels chic.

It can be laidback, too, though — just pair it with some light-rinse jeans on the weekends. “This top is a great find...looks just like the ones I’ve seen in boutiques,” a shopper praised.
To put it simply, pencil skirts can be uncomfortable if they don’t have any stretch. Not this one: GRACE KARIN’s rendition of the pencil skirt is highly elastic and molds to your curves courtesy of the nylon and rayon blend. There is a hidden zipper on the side and strategically-placed ruching through the hips that shoppers were raving about. “By far my favorite piece in my entire closet and I feel like a BADDIE when wearing it,” one shopper raved. “It doesn't ride up when walking, or wrinkle when sitting. It handled itself super well over a full night of dancing. I got so many compliments on it the entire night.” Now, all you need is an elegant halter top or a crisp button-down.
How hot is this croc-printed bodycon dress? Surprise your partner in this baby for date night, and expect their jaw to drop. The only downside? The polyester-spandex material is on the thinner side, but it has plenty of stretch and layers well. “The texture and weight of the fabric is amazing. It feels light yet somehow cozy as well,” one shopper noted. “The crocodile pattern looks nice with a slight shine to it that exudes quality well beyond the price. The dress drapes well enough but wearing a slip underneath would be a good addition. Simply a fantastic dress.” Scroll through all the colorways, and you’ll actually find multiple interpretations of the mock-croc dress, including camisole dresses, off-the-shoulder styles, and metallics.

Wear it over jeans and tee on the weekend, then drape it across your shoulders with a little black dress.
A major selling point of this sweetheart blouse? All the places you’ll go in it, obviously. It can be toned down with a pair of jeans for daytime yet transforms into a dressy ensemble with a sleek black midi skirt and pumps, for instance. The polka-dot chiffon yoke — as well as the lace-trimmed V neckline — gives it a vintage look that you don’t see every day. “Wore it out the 1st time out with hubby and immediately received compliment from a woman passing us by! It's so pretty and feels sexy,” one shopper revealed. (There’s also a fun version with choker-style neckline offered, as well.)

The oversized shirt has a high-low hem, three-quarter sleeves, and a notch collar that can be worn traditionally or slipped invitingly off one shoulder.

And yup, I wore this with a pair of heels," one shopper revealed. Talk about versatility!
Love Urban Decay makeup, but not its price? Here’s an alternative to the brand’s iconic smoky eyeshadow palette that many shoppers swear is better than the original altogether. “This is the best eye shadow color palette that I've ever purchased. I was looking for something that had more than the usual...this gave the variance and options that usually aren't paired together,” one reviewer wrote. There are three other “Revealed” palettes offering warm, cool, and rose-gold tones that nod to other cult-favorite hits as well — all with rich pigments and rave reviews.
Here’s the lowdown: This isn’t some cheap lace kimono. “I can't believe this was so inexpensive because it feels and looks like it costs at least $100,” one reviewer gushed.

Available in 18 colorways, it adds a touch of coverage without looking or feeling dowdy.

All right, here’s the deal: This caftan dress is the secret to jet-set dressing. Suitable for quick morning errands, trips to the tropics, or just days you want to put in zero effort and still look fabulous. It’s pretty glamorous despite the baggy fit and modest boat neckline — just picture it with some oversized sunnies and a great pair of new sandals. If it feels a bit too much like a muumuu for you or you’re petite, then consider adding a belt for a Grecian, toga-like shape.
