The latest early summer collections from J.Crew and Madewell have dropped and I saw a lot of pieces I am loving so I thought I’d share my current J.Crew and Madewell summer favorites. 

I am also sharing a variety of items from them that I own and love already with sizing guidance for you as you shop!

Hope you find something you’re excited about to dress up and as you plan looks for summer travels ahead. 

J.Crew and Madewell Summer Favorites

Here’s a breakdown of my summer favorites from J.Crew and Madewell.

J.Crew

Things I am Loving & Buying

Things I Own & Love

If you’re part of the club of these pants I’ve been raving about for years, FYI that the new linen version is *great*. I got the size 8 in white. Also love the textured satin Stratus pant I recently got in a size M.

I also just bought this slip dress and it is great. I got a size 8. Next on my list is this top + matching skirt because I think the set would be so cute for vacation. 

J.Crew Elena Shirtdress

How perfect is this midi shirt dress? The full skirt had me adding it to my cart immediately. It’s a perfect lightweight cotton so I know it’ll get use all through summer. The white is a bit sheer so I am wearing a slip underneath.

I found it true to size and am wearing a 6. It also comes in black.

J.Crew Edie Top Handle Bag

The ivory is from last year but they have some newer color options this season. 

Como Woven Straw Tote

If you’re in the market for a good straw tote, this one from J.Crew is great. It comes in several colors, fits so much and is lightweight and easy to pack down flat for summer getaways.

Irish Linen Button Down

I sized up to an 8. This shirt also makes for a great cover up over swimsuits! It’s been a staple in my closet since I got it back in 2020 and I still reach for it this time every year.

All of J.Crew’s new linen collection is worth exploring this season. I just love linen season so much.

The Icon Trench

A great layering piece for cooler summer weather. I have owned mine in size 6 for 4+ years!

Madewell 

From season to season I find Madewell hit or miss. But the latest new arrivals are really good. The Madewell shoes this summer are so good in particular!

Handwoven Tote

I own it in two colors. It’s a great errands bag for this time of year. There’s a cute mini version this season, too. 

Seamed Midi Dress + Dakota Saddle Bag

I recommend sizing up in the dress!
