A new season brings fresh sartorial inspiration, but I’m not one to drop a lot of cash every few months on a total wardrobe overhaul. IMO, spring fashion should read effortlessly simple anyway, and, after recently clearing out cold-weather clothing from my closet, I’ve taken note of a few staples I’m lacking for spring and summer.
Target’s new fashion arrivals are always my go-to for filling in the blanks without breaking my budget, and, to my surprise, hundreds of already-affordable pieces are already on sale. After sifting through it all, I found trendy dresses, petite-friendly jeans, lightweight jackets, and elevated basics I plan to keep on rotation all season long. Below, shop my fully loaded cart, starting at just $11.

A New Day Signature Crepe Long Line Vest
Target
Consider this expensive-looking piece a far more sophisticated version of a staple tank top. Made from a lightweight crepe fabrication, this longline, split-hem vest top will look great paired with trousers for days at the office or instantly elevate your daily denim on casual outings. Plus, you can shop the on-sale matching shorts for an effortless spring outfit.
Future Collective Cropped Barn Jacket
Target
Over here in NYC, the warm weather won’t fully hit until June, so I’m still curating lightweight layers to last me through cool summer nights. This now-$34 cotton-blend barn jacket is so chic and easy to dress up or down, thanks to its cropped hem that’ll pair perfectly with my rotation of high-waisted jeans and skirts. Available in cream and khaki color options, it features a corduroy point collar, two front pockets, and tortoiseshell front buttons for tonal contrast.
A New Day Smoked Midi A-Line Dress
Target
This flattering and ultra-versatile midi dress will practically pay for itself in cost per wear. Designed with a stretchy drop-waist bodice, flowing skirt, adjustable straps, and breathable cotton fabrication, this comfy yet elegant number will keep you cool from coffee runs to dinner dates. I plan to dress it up with pumps and a statement purse and keep things casual with my comfiest sneakers.
Universal Thread High-Rise Sailor Wide Leg Ankle Jeans
Target
These spring-perfect jeans are available in a wide range of sizes and seven color options, including denim washes, solid hues, and pinstripes. They feature a high-waisted silhouette with wide legs and a slightly cropped ankle hem, which several repeat shoppers say “fits perfectly” on petite frames. One shopper raved about the style’s “gentle stretch that creates all-day comfort,” while others attest that the jeans are “so flattering” and “breathable.”
