25 Under-$25 Finds to Help You Finish Summer Right
While it may feel like summer really just began, somehow we’re officially at that point where we’re already starting to turn our attention to fall fashion. Warm-weather wardrobes are hopefully complete (or close to it) and, if not, you might not feel like splurging on sandals, a swimsuit, or dress with roughly only half the season left. So, what’s one to do? Of course, I’ve got you covered.
Today I’ve rounded up twenty-five summer-ready trend pieces and essentials, all of which are under $25 so that if you’re still in need of something to wear on a day-to-day basis or to complete a special outfit, you won’t feel like you over-spent on it once the next season rolls around in seven-or-so weeks. At first, it may seem like I completed a near-impossible task, however, thanks to some of our favorite sites like Amazon, H&M, and Nordstrom, it was actually quite easy. To get started shopping all my picks, just keep scrolling.
Ok, so it's technically not "under" $25, but I felt like this was worth cheating for.
This headband will pair so well with all your simple dresses.
In need of white tanks? H&M is a goldmine.
I'm partial to this "rose gold sparkle," but any of the thirteen colors that these shorts come in will do.
Gotta love a smocked dress.
Next: I shop all day for a living—these are the coolest things I've seen this month.

Upon joining, she was a senior about to graduate from business school at USC. Fast-forward to 2025, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was just starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content and her Trust Me—Buy This newsletter. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to neutral, classic pieces but will always make an exception for something colorful or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a party is dressing up for one. On her downtime, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious and trying to force her husband to watch Summer House.
