While spring has merely just begun, I’m already in the midst of assembling an elegant summer wardrobe. I’ll need gauzy button-down shirts for days in the office, floaty white dresses for sun-kissed moments by the shore, and lightweight linen pants that I can wear for endless outdoor brunches and rooftop happy hours.

As if J.Crew read my mind, the retailer is hosting a major sale filled with plenty of airy styles that are ideal for sweltering temperatures. While scrolling through J.Crew’s site, I discovered warm-weather essentials like fresh floral dresses, sophisticated strappy sandals, and thigh-grazing denim shorts. I even spotted several of the season’s most viral fashion trends, like Breton striped shirts that embrace fashion’s fisherman aesthetic and garments designed with whimsical bubble hemlines.

So, if you’re set on getting a head start on summer shopping, allow me to lead the way. Keep scrolling to find a handpicked list of 24 styles that you’ll wear on repeat this upcoming season. I’d recommend acting quickly if you see something you like. J.Crew’s sale only lasts until Monday, April 7, and items are already selling swiftly!
