T-Shirts & Sweaters
For a slightly different look, 7Diamonds has a solid line of tees with a slight curved cut at the bottom - I'm a fan.
Definitely lux. Thicker material allows it to be dressed up or down as much as you'd like. It is longer than a normal tee. Size down if you prefer a tighter fit. Tons of color options and non-lux version available.
James Perse is a brand for the boujee but worth the splurge. For reference, their sizing is in numbers: 1 = S, 2=M, 3=L, etc.
Button Ups & Button Downs
Not only is this pattern incredible, this top is basically a towel. The length is longer than you'd expect, but that's intentional.
Nice slim fit and hugs the arms nicely. Most of their shirts have the option to cuff the sleeve with a different pattern underneath (shown above). Linked to multiple styles.
Super soft material with a flattering fit. Multiple patterns available - but this one is my favorite.
I love the fabric and fit of this brand. It's more of a performance material, super soft and silky. I wear a small. Linked to multiple colors and styles!
This is my new go-to pool shirt (but honestly I'll probably wear it everywhere). It's an oversized fit on purpose, but if that's not your thing, size down. Shorter in the front, longer in the back (also on purpose). It's funky and fun! Burgundy option as well.
Terry cloth is like a towel - thicker material but chic as hell. Multiple colors available!
Interesting print that I oddly love. It combines black, brown, and a darker red that give you tons of styling options. I layer it with a black or white tank to break up the pattern but look great on its own with black jeans.
This shirt always gets so many compliments for how unique it is. I usually layer it with a black t-shirt. Here's the deal with Shein - the quality is hit or miss. This shirt in particular came with a tiny bit of loose stitching around the buttons, but I trimmed it off and it's been fine since! I use Shein when I want to try out new styles since it's so affordable, but that does come with a slight risk of quality (but not always!)
Chambray is the casual denim look without the typical denim thickness. Multiple versions available - typically on sale!
Banana Republic's untucked linen series is perfect for a casual summer dinner. Multiple colors available.
I chose yellow to be bold since it's a unique style - but multiple colors are available (and there's a short sleeve option!) NewChic is another site that can be risky with quality. This shirt came in great condition, but other things weren't quite what I hoped for. Keep that in mind while shopping their site - but it's so cheap it's almost worth the risk!
Stripes are in! I would probably wear this unbuttoned with an undershirt. It'll shrink - so keep that in mind!
7Diamonds usually has a good mix of muted prints for everyday wear and stand-out prints for a summer pool day.
The quality of this line would let you dress it up with slacks or keep it simple with jeans.
Dress up in comfort with Nordstrom's tech-fit (feels athletic, but doesn't look like it)
Henleys & Polos
Outside of athletic wear, Lulu actually has great everyday casual wear. Multiple colors available.
Stay warm & stylish. Intentionally baggy, so size down for a tighter fit. This brand is often on sale too!
Stay warm & stylish - Nordstrom knows what they're doing. This brand is often on sale too!
This sweater material is extremely trendy this year. I got a small and it was a perfect fit. Other prints available.
On sale at Nordstrom Rack! Doesn't have the Brooks Brothers logo - but does have a unique geo pattern and performance material.
Athletic Wear
Zella quality is comparable to lulu lemon for half the price. HIGHLY recommend this brand for budget friendly, high end, athletic wear.
Once again - run, don't walk for these affordable and durable Zella dri-fits. Size down with this one in particular.
Loose fitting, breathable tank! I would recommend sizing down if you prefer a semi-tight fit. Multiple color options. Recommend to size down with this tank.
Great price for a workout or casual shirt. I wear a size medium, so I'd say these fit true to size. The small details in the material give it an elevated, high-end look. Multiple colors available.
Of all the Nike Dri-FITs out there - get these. I usually wear a medium in t-shirts, but I size down with this version of their Dri-FIT and it makes my arms look falsely buff. I have the medium too for a more relaxed fit. I've found these at TJ Maxx for cheaper pretty often. Multiple color options!
I really dig the two-toned aspect of this shirt in particular, but they have solid colors available too. I had to size down (small instead of medium) for the right fit.
