Every summer I do the same thing: stand in my closet, try on way too many outfits, and end up in the same three. So this year I made myself actually commit — thirteen looks I'd genuinely wear, from beach-day easy to dinner-reservation sexy. Cheetah print, slinky satin, denim on denim, the whole range. I linked every piece so you can copy them exactly (and yes, they're all on sale right now). The best part? Every piece is from my JCPenney collection: cute, curve-loving, and easy on the wallet. Here are all thirteen.
I'm not usually a matchy person, so I let this leopard-lace tank be the whole moment and kept everything else quiet — clean capris, a pointy heel. It's giving 2005 in the best way, and somehow it's still comfortable enough to wear all night.
Tank: Lace Trim Tank in Blur Animal — $35 ($26.25 with code 26SUMMER)
Capris: Ponte Capri Pant in Pepper Corn Black — $49 ($36.75 with code 26SUMMER)
Heels: Pointed Closed Toe Stiletto Heel Pumps — $115 ($37.49 with code 26SUMMER)
Look total: $84 → about $63 with code 26SUMMER, about $100 (with shoes)
Okay, I know long shorts scare people. Try them anyway. I wore these tailored ones with a little green halter and a belt and felt weirdly powerful — like I could run a meeting and then go straight to dinner.
Halter top: Memphis Green Halter Top — $44 ($23.10 with code 26SUMMER)
Shorts: Dressy Jort in Peppercorn Black — $49 ($36.75 with code 26SUMMER)
Sandals: Unisa Aliane-J Slide Sandals — $60 ($33.75 with code 26SUMMER)
Look total: $93 → about $60 with code 26SUMMER, about $94 (with shoes)
This is the dress I'd pack if I could only bring one. You put it on, add hoops, and you're done thinking about it.
Dress: Keyhole Maxi Dress in Diffused Floral — $70 ($52.50 with code 26SUMMER)
Look total: $70 → $52.50 with code 26SUMMER
Denim on denim, but make it a night out. The strapless top and wide-leg trousers match up so it almost reads like a jumpsuit — I threw on a heel and some gold and called it a look.
Top: Strapless Denim Top in Rinse — $28 ($21.00 with code 26SUMMER)
Trousers: Denim Trouser in Rinse — $56 ($42.00 with code 26SUMMER)
Look total: $84 → $63 with code 26SUMMER
The fringe on this one gets me every time — it moves when you move and it's just fun to wear. Feels like a vacation dress even when I'm nowhere near a beach.
Dress: Crew Neck Sleeveless Sheath Dress in Black/Gray — $63 ($47.25 with code 26SUMMER)
Sandals: DV8 Hanna Heeled Sandals in Black — $65 ($48.75 with code 26SUMMER)
Look total: $63 → about $47 with code 26SUMMER, about $96 (with shoes)
Perfect for a GNO or date night on the town (or beach!!) The print does a lot, so I keep everything else simple.
Dress: Ruched Bodycon Midi Dress in Animal — $70 ($52.50 with code 26SUMMER)
Shoes (as worn): Roger Vivier Jewel Heel Satin Sandals — the splurge ✨
Dupe: ALDO Pearletta Strappy Heeled Sandal — $74.98
Look total: $70 → $52.50 with code 26SUMMER, about $127 (with dupe heels)
A good tank and a white denim mini is basically my summer uniform, and I'm not sorry. This green makes me sooo happy. Add a belt and a strappy sandal and you're ready for whatever the day turns into!
Tank: High Neck Rib Tank in Bright Moss — $24 ($16.80 with code 26SUMMER)
Skirt: Denim Mini Skirt in White — $42 ($31.50 with code 26SUMMER)
Shoes: Sam Edelman Presley Strappy Sandal in Bright White — $83
Look total: $66 → about $48 with code 26SUMMER (tank + skirt)
Forget the LBD for a second — the little brown dress is the sleeper hit of the collection. It's ruched, it's a little sexy, and it surprised even me. Barefoot or with a nude heel, it just works.
Dress: Button Front Halter Mini Dress in Safari Brown — $63 ($47.25 with code 26SUMMER)
Look total: $63 → $47.25 with code 26SUMMER
I can't stop wearing this look. It's a little undone in the way I like.
Cardigan: Crew Neck Long Sleeve Cardigan in Safari Brown — $54 ($28.35 with code 26SUMMER)
Shorts: Baggy Short in White — $49 ($36.75 with code 26SUMMER)
Sandals: Unisa Aliane-J Slide Sandals in Black — $45 ($33.75 with code 26SUMMER)
Look total: $103 → about $65 with code 26SUMMER (cardigan + shorts), about $99 (with shoes)
I wore this one and immediately got the "wait, where's that from" comments. It's the kind of orange that does something for your skin, and the white pumps just make it louder.
Dress: Sleeveless High-Low Sweater Dress in Spicy Orange — $70 ($52.50 with code 26SUMMER)
Pumps: Charles David Geno Pointed Stiletto Pumps in White — $49.99 ($37.49 with code 26SUMMER)
Look total: $70 → $52.50 with code 26SUMMER (dress), about $90 (with shoes)
The satin just moves with you. Nude heels, a cold drink, and I'm a very happy woman.
Dress: Bead Trim Satin Midi Dress in Carmelized Orange — $70 ($52.50 with code 26SUMMER)
Look total: $70 → $52.50 with code 26SUMMER
This looks like a dress but it's actually a top and skirt — sneaky. The cheetah and the lace hem feel a little dangerous. Pure going-out energy. BUT I love wearing them separate too. Both great adds for the wardrobe.
Top: Asymmetrical Engineered Rib Top in Peppercorn Black — $35 ($26.25 with code 26SUMMER)
Skirt: Asymmetric Lace Trimmed Slip Skirt in Blur Animal — $56 ($42.00 with code 26SUMMER)
Pumps: Pointed Closed Toe Stiletto Heel Pumps — $115 ($37.49 with code 26SUMMER)
Look total: $91 → about $68 with code 26SUMMER (top + skirt), about $106 (with shoes)
Slinky, glamorous, and just the right amount of wild. It’s the print that never goes out of style, cut for maximum impact. Black kitten-heel thongs keep it cheeky and easy ;)
Dress: V-Neck Sleeveless Satin Animal Sheath Dress in Blur Animal — $63 ($47.25 with code 26SUMMER)
Look total: $63 → $47.25 with code 26SUMMER
That's the whole edit! No rules, wear what makes you feel good, and if you try one of these, tag me — I look at every single one and it always makes my day!!
Xx,
Ashley
