There are plenty of trends worth trying, but, I’ll be honest — I still want to be comfy. That’s why I love searching for high-quality basics and trendy pieces that are still super-cozy, but I also love a good bargain. To date, I’ve found 40 comfortable things that look great on everyone, and the best part? They’re all under $20.
Let me get you on board with these comfy trends and easy basics for your capsule wardrobe. I’ve tracked down a $15 rib knit tank top that you can layer under a sheer blouse or wear on its own, and reviewers are raving about the downy-soft cotton and modal blend fabric. There are also two perfect T-shirt dresses on this list: choose from a ridiculously popular swing dress or one with a modern boxy cut that comes complete with a pocket.
If you’re covered with classics, I’ve also unearthed a ton of trendy Amazon fashion finds. There’s a structured fedora hat with a wool-like texture and supple faux leather band — or what about the knit midi skirt I found with kicky side slits that’s secretly so stretchy? There’s even a wool-blend beret that comes in nearly three dozen colors, including an option studded with faux pearls.
No matter what you’re searching for, why not make it comfy? I promise these pieces will look good on everyone, and they’ll be so comfortable that you might find yourself circling back to grab a few more.
