As someone who shops a lot, I've gotten pretty good at finding hidden gems, especially at retailers like Amazon. Two of my most complimented dresses are from there, which always surprises people. Just the other day, a friend told me she loved my dress I got from Amazon—the Nia Sera Dress. When I told her where it was from, she was taken aback it wasn't Paloma Wool.
Some of my best finds have been sneaky Amazon ones—a true needle-in-a-haystack situation. Take the Qinsen Square Neck Dress, for example, which I found on TikTok after searching for black minidresses. One of my best tips for shopping there is to follow the storefronts of influencers whose taste you actually trust. I've also learned that you can find so many pieces that look way more expensive than they actually are once you know what to search for and which brands are worth it.
Right now, Amazon's Big Spring Sale is on until Monday, March 31, so I've curated the chicest shoes, jeans, and dresses to save you the time.
Dresses
This dress is viral on TikTok.
The Drop has so many chic dresses—like this.
This one too.
I'm into this burgundy.
This strapless mini can be dressed up or down.
Everyone seems to be buying linen right now.
This looks so much more expensive than it is.
I'm such a fan of tennis dresses.
You can't go wrong with a simple slip dress.
This is so cute to wear on a beach trip.
Black-and-white contrast stitching always wins me over.
Lioness is another brand I always revisit on Amazon.
I'm a huge fan of having dresses I can just throw on and feel immediately put-together.
Lovely.
Jeans
I love getting Levi's whenever they go on sale.
This light-wash version as well.
This Ribcage silhouette is super popular.
If you want to try a different take on the usual black capris that are trending.
A classic.
When I want to feel less restricted, I like having baggier jeans on hand as an option.
These are a go-to.
Shoes
Such a good find.
Black ballet flats are a wardrobe staple for me.
I also love wearing them in red.
Since I'm not a big sneaker person, I love wearing Mary Jane flats as my walking shoes.
If I wore heels, I'd get these.
I got into Havaianas last summer like everyone else, and now, I love flip-flops again.
If you want to get on the mesh-ballet-flats trend.
