10 Standout J.Crew Items That Have Viral Potential

It's hard to remember a time when J.Crew was quite as popular as it is now. Ever since the arrival of Creative Director Olympia Gayot, the brand has done a 180. We're at the point where many pieces sell out in every size as soon as they're stocked, with some pieces becoming so sought-after that they reach viral status.
It just so happens that J.Crew has tons of new arrivals to choose from right now, some of which stopped me in my tracks as I was scrolling through. At this point, I think I'm pretty good at pinpointing which J.Crew items are going to be hits, so I'm sharing my current predictions with you. From tops to accessories to dresses, these are the 10 greatest hits of the season, in my humble fashion-editor opinion. Keep scrolling to shop them now, as I'm convinced they won't be in stock for long.
Claudia Dress
This minidress—which comes in linen and denim—is the kind of easy dress you'll reach for time and time again this summer.
Cadiz Hand-Knotted Rope Tote
The only tough decision when ordering this fun vacation-ready tote is deciding which color (or colors) to get.
Contrast Vest
This vest market is oversaturated at this point, but this one stands out from the pack. I can see myself styling it simply with jeans and ballet flats.
Cropped Bomber Jacket
I'm always on the hunt for summery jackets (because air conditioning), and this one is perfect for wearing with dresses and skirts.
Relaxed Crewneck Beach Sweater
This is the perfect lightweight sweater. Tie it around your shoulders then throw it on when that evening summertime breeze picks up.
Mary-Jane Espadrilles
These flats combine several trends in one, and I have a feeling J.Crew shoppers will flock to them.
Halter-Neck Top
Halter tops are still very much a thing, and this one is particularly flattering and expensive-looking.
High-Neck Midi Dress
This simple, elegant linen dress is one that would be great to have on hand this summer. In fact, I'm tempted to order it in both colors.
Mini Bubble-Hem Skirt
Bubble hems are a fun, flirty trend for summer. J.Crew's iteration is trendy yet classic.
Textured Crochet Lady Jacket
It wouldn't be a J.Crew story without a Lady Jacket. The latest iteration this colorful crochet creation. It'll keep you lookin polished this summer and beyond.
