I’m personally in need of a wardrobe refresh after two years of wearing nothing but, well, the same pair of sweatpants. And while I’m sort of dreading the idea of putting on real clothes again, it’s been thrilling to online shop for statement earrings and denim again.
Target has a great selection of solid basics and trend items right now, from little black dresses and versatile tanks to envelope clutches and packable beach hats. And the best part? We’ve compiled a list of our favorite under-$20 pieces below.
