Amazon Fashion Finds | August

Happy Friday, friends, and cheers to the weekend! My sister and nephew are flying in from California today, and we’re all excited to have lake time with them! Sloan started school this week, and Mr. College returns to campus next week, so it’s our final few days of Summer together.

Rather than feeling bummed about the season coming to an end, I’m focusing on the fun we’ll have this fall! Assuming fall ever arrives, the break may be over, but it looks like we’ll have a couple more months of summer weather. I’m not too mad about it, summer fashion is my favorite! But maybe we could drop below triple digits?! Temps in the 90s will feel practically balmy after the summer we’ve had!

I can hardly believe another month has passed, but today it’s time for your favorite series, my Amazon Fashion Finds! I started these Fashion Finds over 7 years ago, and they quickly became reader faves. It takes some intense digging to find the good stuff, but I love the challenge of discovering such gems!

Sizing info: I’m 5’4″ 125-ish pounds, and usually wear an XS and 26 jeans. My fit tips and sizing recommendations are included with each description.

Dresses //

This maxi was a quick ‘yes!’ for me, and I’ve already worn it out for date night! It has a smocked top with adjustable straps, and a soft, flowing skirt. Grab it in fall colors and add a jacket, it’s a great transition piece.

Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small dress.

I have this print in a maxi skirt (found HERE), and love it so much, I was excited to see it on a new wrap dress. It’s silky-soft and lightweight, and is a full wrap style. The flutter sleeves cover the upper arms, and the belted waist is so flattering. I love the darker colors for fall transition, too.

Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small dress.

Printed Faux Wrap Maxi Dress (Floral Pink & Floral Green)

How fun is the silhouette of this dress?! You’d never guess it’s an Amazon find! I love the print and puff sleeves, with subtle cut-outs at the waist. The material won’t win any quality awards, but the price and trendy style make up for it.

Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size XS dress.

I always joke with Mr. SP that when I hang up my ‘Sugarplum’ hat, I’ll live in mumus and top-knots. But this one I’d wear now! The prints are so on-trend and expensive looking, and I love the oversized sleeve and soft skirt. It’s a little shapeless on my petite frame, so I added a belt for a little more style.

Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small dress.

Hello, sassy! This cute little dress is perfect for a night out, parties, concerts, and more. It has an adjustable shoulder tie, and the cutest mini pleats and tiers. It’s fully-lined, as well. I’d wear it with my go-to strapless bra found HERE.

Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small dress, but it’s a little loose on top.

You’ve seen this dress already, since I wore it in both Bora Bora (seen HERE) and a girls night (seen HERE), but it’s so good it needed a spot in our monthly Amazon Haul! It’s a soft and stretchy jersey knit, with padded shoulders that create an hourglass shape. The cut-outs are perfectly placed to highlight the most slender part of the waist, and has a sassy leg slit. The black is more forgiving, and really conceals any lumps and bumps.

Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small dress.

If you’re more on the hunt for fall styles, I noticed this favorite dress is finally back-in-stock! I wear it in warmer months with sandals and slides, and transition it to booties when it starts to cool. It’s cute for concerts, too.

Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small dress.

Jumpsuits & Rompers //

I’m crazy for this jumpsuit… the color, the soft material, the flattering wide leg, and smocked one-shoulder! It has a great ankle length, and even pockets! We’re ending the summer with a quick getaway later this month, and this will definitely be in my bag!

Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small jumpsuit, but it feels a touch short in the stride, so I’ve already ordered a medium.

Braided Slide Sandals (Apricot, TTS) | Layered Initial Necklace | Medium Hoop Earrings | Bracelet Set
Right: Jean Jacket (Small) (code CASSIE15) | Woven Clutch (Nat1)

 

An easy romper in soft jersey, it’s perfect with sandals, sneakers and even over a swimsuit. It’s bra-friendly with an elastic, drawstring waist, and full leg openings.

Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small romper. 

Sleeveless Romper (06-white+black & Jade Green)

Another darling romper/jumpsuit option, I’d wear this one over a swimsuit… or layer it over a fitted tank or tee for running around town. It’s super-soft and stretchy, with adjustable straps and fun wide legs.

Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small in both.

I also noticed one of my favorite jumpsuits is finally back! This cotton-twill is darling with sandals or booties, and the perfect transitional style. It’s soft with a flattering, easy-to-wear fit.

Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small jumpsuit.

Sets & Lounge //

This set has gone viral, and with good reason! It’s identical to the pricey Free People set, and the quality is so good! The pants have a fun ‘hammer style’ that are somehow super-comfy and flattering! I love the drop shoulder sweater, and have also paired it with this skirt.

The shorts set is fun, but I didn’t love the fit of the shorts on me… I think they’re best-suited for someone with less curves.

Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small in both.

I have this set in ‘apricot’ and it’s been a fave this season. I wear it as a set with sandals or sneakers for running around, and toss the oversized shirt on over a swimsuit. It’s so soft and lightweight, I also love it as loungewear around the house. It’s a keeper!

Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small set.

If you prefer a thicker material, this set is a heavier sweatshirt style, with a pull-on elastic short and cute collar. It’s a relaxed fit, and would be cute with sneakers, too.

Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small set.

Swim & Cover-Ups //

Y’all loved this cover-up in Bora Bora (see it HERE), so I had to try another color… and yep, I love it too! It’s a sturdy crochet style, with loose sleeves and the perfect length for keeping everything covered.

Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small cover-up.

Another combo you saw in French Polynesia (see it HERE and HERE), and so good it needed a permanent spot in our Amazon Hauls! The bikini is fully-lined, and actually fully covers the chest and bum!! The quality is great, too!

And the sarong is probably a Top 5 find of the summer… it looks incredibly chic and expensive, but is only $20! It washes and dries beautifully, and is so soft. It also folds down to nothing, making it great for packing.

Fit Tip: I always size up in swimsuits, but this bikini runs large (trust me!), so I’m wearing a size XS.

Activewear //

Athletic dresses are all the rage now, and I’m here for them! They make getting dressed so easy, with a top and skirt in one! Both of these come with a separate biker short with pockets (I prefer when they aren’t connected, for easier on-and-off), and are quality lycra.

I love the mock-neck and quarter zip of the pink, but it does require a separate bra. The lilac one is a touch longer with a racerback, and has a built-in bra.

Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size XS pink dress and size Small purple dress. I sized down half in the sneakers.

Shoes & Accessories //

I found some fun sandals and sneakers this month, and all are not only super-stylish, but comfy as well! The slides are as close to a designer-style as I’ve found, and the strappy sandals have the softest, cushioned foot bed.

The sneakers are a darling, retro style, and so cute with jeans. And apparently school uniforms, because Sloan has already declared them for herself!

Fit Tip: The strappy sandals are true-to-size, but the slides and sneakers run large, so I sized down.

As for accessories, these are really great finds… the bracelets I’ve been wearing on repeat, and I even included them in my recent Loving Lately (found HERE).
