It is no secret around here that Amazon is becoming one of my favorite places to shop! So I thought I would share all in one place my favorite finds, recommendations, sizing information, and more!
Amazon is quickly becoming a bit of a cult classic when it comes to shopping! Formerly known as the place to get weirdly sewn, badly shaped clothing from who knows where, it has now become a reliable place for me to turn when I want to find something affordable that I can get within a couple of days that is cute and (generally speaking) really comfortable too!
While I have had some misses, most everything I’ve ordered from Amazon so far has been a hit and has gone into regular rotation in my wardrobe! So I wanted to share some of those with you today along with sizing information!
SIZING INFO: I am normally a size L in tops and a 12/14 in bottoms! I am 5’4″ and weigh around 180 lbs. I have included specific sizing information and recommendations for each piece below!

All About Amazon: Your Must Have Shopping List
First up, my best-selling Amazon item, these simple v-neck tees!
I’ve had these tees for MONTHS (since last October) and they are just freaking awesome. For starters, they come in a pack of 2 for only $18. The fabric is nice and thick (not see through at all) and they have held up great through several washes! I just wash them on gentle & cold and lay them flat to dry on a drying rack. Then I steam them with my steamer and they’re good to go!
I wear them in a size XL, so I would suggest sizing up if you’re in between because they are a fitted cut. I have them in the two pack of the thin strip and camo tees and the white and navy but they have a ton of color combos available. (I’m thinking the pretty little heart print needs to find its way to my closet stat!) If you purchase nothing else for yourself, grab a set of these tees. They are so versatile and a must for your closet!
My next most popular purchase from Amazon is this pretty floral tunic! I absolutely love the colors and the floral pattern (so good for spring) and the fabric is soft, stretchy, and lightweight! I am wearing this in a L so I would say that it is true to size. This is a great top for work and it is under $25!
This sweater was another fave and I’m excited to tell you that it is back in stock!! I love the big stripes and it pairs perfectly with a pretty floral earring! I’ve been stalking the listing forever and when I checked it while writing this post they had it available in all sizes so RUN! I sized up to an XL and would recommend that you definitely size up if you’re in between – it seems to run a bit small!
When you’re curvy, finding a simple t-shirt dress can be tricky. If they aren’t cut just right, you either look like you squeezed into it OR like you’re wearing a potato sack, and neither of those is particularly flattering. Needless to say, I’m always a bit leery when ordering them. So I was pleasantly surprised when I tried this one on to find that it was actually flattering (not to mention soft and really comfy too – kinda like wearing a nightgown in public). Coming in at under $20 and available in over ten colors, this one is kind of a no brainer for your spring wardrobe.
This is another one that I feel like I took a chance on and it paid off! If you’re into jumpsuits (I know it is a personal preference) then you need to check this one out! It has an elastic waist and cuffed ankles, which I think gives it a bit more polish, and the off-the-shoulder look dresses it up a lot! I would wear this out to dinner on vacation or out with friends! The fabric is really soft and forgiving! I am wearing in a size XL and have plenty of room so I could probably wear my regular size too.
More floral love from Amazon! This hoodie is super soft – it is that silky fabric that you just want to touch all the time – and a great weight for spring. You can wear it with jeans now and shorts later! Size up if you’re in between – I am wearing in a size XL!
Add a sweet touch to your basic white tee with these cute ruffled sleeves! I think this shirt is the perfect length to do the front tuck with but if you’re taller then this top probably won’t work for you. (I’m 5’4″ for reference and it hits just below the top of my jeans). I am wearing in a size L so you could size up for a bit more length but I thought the ruffled sleeves were too cute to pass up!
The tie-front button down is super trendy right now! I’ve had a hard time finding one that felt long enough to tie without looking strange so I was skeptical when I ordered these but ended up being pleased with them! The white is a size L and the pink is a size XL – I ended up keeping the pink because I liked the way it fit better but both worked for me!
I wore this pink off-the-shoulder top to the Thrive welcome party and it was perfect! I love the slouchy fit and the bared shoulder is always a subtle but sexy look I can get behind. I wore it with my favorite bralette (because strapless bras are of the devil I tell you) and was good to go!
The bathing suit that is sweeping the internet. I’m here to tell you that yes, it really is THAT GOOD! (Oh, and it is only $27!!) I would recommend sizing up – I am wearing in a size XL.
Another bathing suit trend I’m loving is the one-shoulder-ruffle look! I felt fully supported in this suit (it has cups sewn into it, but no wire) and is completely lined, front and back. I am wearing in a size 14 (I normally have to size up in bathing suits for the bust area).
Another great suit that is functional and stylish without being too matronly (for lack of a better term!)! It has the built in tummy control and sewn in cups for bust support. I also appreciate that it covers plenty of my behind as well! I am wearing in a size 14.
Sometimes denim shorts in the summer are just too hot, so I’m glad I found these really comfy linen drawstring shorts! I need to grab them in a couple more colors but they are so great for hot summers!
Sometimes you just need a nice, basic tee that has a little more personality right? I love these striped, color-blocked tees! The fabric is really soft and the length is great too!
A similar variation to the one above with a little bit of a different pattern!
Of course we all know that Amazon isn’t just the place for clothes – they sell basically anything you need (even body pillows that can be delivered within an hour – praise Jesus!). Some other things I’m loving from Amazon are:
- These no show socks! 3 pair for less than $10 and they do NOT move around in your shoe!
- Floral blue-light blocking glasses! So cute and necessary if you spend a ton of time in front of a computer!
- Basic cotton panties. As I’ve gotten older, I’m way more into comfy over pretty when it comes to underwear. These are my favorite! I wear them pretty much every day!
- Light support sports bras! I would not recommend working out in these (except maybe light yoga) but they are great for lounging around the house or sleeping in!
- Portable clothes steamer: I now steam ALL of my clothes (I never ironed anyways, but steaming is way more fun!).
- The best coffee mug. No seriously, I’m sipping coffee out of it right now as I finish up this post! Dishwasher safe and keeps my coffee hot for a minimum of four hours. Win!
