Midsize Approved Amazon Finds
It’s time for another round up of my top 10 Amazon finds! Recently I have been testing out a lot of great Amazon fashion pieces for summer as well as incorporating home finds and outdoor sports equipment. My orders are all over the place but that’s the beauty of Amazon to me! When it comes to the fashion aspect, I have a bunch of great shoes to share as well as midsize friendly garments that are size M/L approved. If you want to see what I’m buying from Amazon these days, keep on reading!

Best White crop tee for Summer
Starting off strong we have this great white crop tee from Amazon! I love the double lined material and how comfortable overall it is. It’s just cropped enough that it still goes well with high waisted pants and since it is so fitted I can easily wear it with skirts or even under jumpsuits. I also like how the material is just thick enough that I don’t necessarily have to wear a bra with it. Those are always my favorite kinds of garments! In my opinion, this also fits true to size, I wear a M and it looks great on me. I also fit it to be stretchy enough to feel comfortable on both my stomach and arms!
Matching Knit Short Set
Our next piece is this cute matching white set from Amazon! I love the quality of the knit and think the color way is too good. If you find yourself boating this summer or you’re working from home, this versatile set is a great addition to any wardrobe. I like how high waisted the bottoms are and how easily I can style each piece individually. If you’re traveling in particular, a matching set is a great way to go because they are easy to wear both together and with your wardrobe basics. In this case, try the sweater with a light pair of denim shorts or the shorts with the white tee mentioned above.
Pro tip: I get a L in this set so it’s a smidge oversized. The knit is super soft and a little on the heavy side so it drapes nicely on the body. I also love tops like this that are on the loose side because they are comfier and easier to wear on chill days at home when you still want to look pulled together.
Fitted Checker dress for summer
I am so thrilled with this Amazon dress! It’s a beautiful knit in a great quality that surprised even me. I enjoy the bit of stretch this garment provides and the thin straps are adjustable so you can get your perfect fit. The one slightly disappointing aspect to this dress is how short it is, on the model it looked a bit longer and although I am 5’7, I did think it would hit me further down the leg. Regardless, even at a midi length this dress looks beautiful on and fits my curves wonderfully without stretching out the pattern.
Pro tip: style a dress like this with sneakers for a casual afternoon out. I would go for a high top pair or you can go for something on trend and sleek. This sort of dress can also easily get dressed up with a tan sandal or heel if you want to take it on a date. Either way it’s super versatile and is a wardrobe staple for me!
free people lookalike Maxi dress
I went on a bit of a dress shop this month, there were just too many good options! I really enjoy this Free People lookalike for a fraction of the cost, it’s incredibly comfortable and the price is phenomenal. I will say the sleeves are a bit more fluttery than I anticipated so do be careful when deciding on a bra. I would go for something minimal and sticky since the top goes down so low. In terms of length and overall fit, I would say it’s true to size and long enough for my taller frame. I tend to wear heels with this piece since it’s a bit on the fancier side and it keeps the bottom of the skirt from getting too dirty.
v neck and thong back black bodysuit
I don’t know about you but I am always going to be a bodysuit girly. I think they are the most clever top and make for an incredibly easy outfit. Lately I’ve been wearing mine with lightweight cargo pants and denim shorts for my various warm weather adventures. When it comes to bodysuits themselves, I always look for ones with a thong back. I think it creates the best silhouette under your bottoms and it’s just comfier in my opinion. I also like how this one is a v neck both in the front and the back. It’s a cute added detail and since the material overall is soft and a heavier quality, it’ll be flattering on any body.
White Square Toe sandals
When it comes to footwear this summer, square designs are supreme! I think when done in a delicate design like this pair of sandals, it’s quite beautiful on any foot. Depending on your summer plans, I would opt for a neutral like this pair of white sandals. Coming in a few different colors these sandals are such a workhorse! I love how surprisingly comfortable these shoes are too, they’re almost cloud-like and pleasantly squishy. The other day I wore them for hours on end and while setting up for an event and they didn’t give me any grief. Plus since they are a lower heel they are comfortable enough to wear for longer durations.
Platform sandals with cork sole
Another pair of shoes that came in clutch this June was this super high platform sandal. I loved how tall and surprisingly comfortable they were, I could walk pretty easily in them considering the height. See, the key to this shoe is the near platform style. Instead of being a steep heel for your foot, it’s a tall platform made extra comfortable with the cork sole. Coming in several colors, I like how the nude pair looked with a variety of outfits. Whether you dress them up with a nice dress for a wedding or dress them down for a first date like I did with the denim shorts, this is one pair of shoes that can be worn time and again.
Amazon Beauty
Elf Power Grip primer
When people talk about ELF being a solid dupe for high end beauty, they weren’t kidding! I will be honest I used to scoff at ELF in college during my expensive makeup phase. As I’ve grown older, I’ve begun to appreciate saving a few dollars and experimenting with drugstore products alongside my high end favorites. Case in point, this primer. I don’t typically wear primers so it wasn’t something I wanted to spend a bunch of money on in the first place. However this grippy primer was far better than anything I had tried previously from ELF. This formula is rather sticky and looks beautiful under my Lancome foundation. It also doesn’t feel heavy on the skin which is especially nice in the hot summer months!

4 level shoe rack
I’m going to be real with you, I purchased this shoe rack ages ago and just now put it together! I sometimes take awhile to actually get around to constructing things but I’m glad I put this shoe rack together it needed to be done. This rather tall rack fits wonderfully in my closet although it could work just as well near a front door. It fits several pairs of shoes with ease and it was surprisingly simple to build by myself. I didn’t need tools to construct it and it came with a bonus piece which was great to have around. I would consider this a beginner friendly build and with the clear instructions and labels it took about 25 minutes from start to finish!
Amazon Outdoors
inflatable paddle board
I would like to preface before going any further this paddle board design was not my top choice. Regardless it was on sale and I honestly adore it. I inflated it for the first time and felt very safe and comfortable on the board especially in the choppy waters I faced during my boarding experience. Not only was the board easy to assemble from the inflation to adding the fins but the paddle itself was great too. I liked how it came in several pieces and you could adjust the height to your needs. The greatest part of the board I would say though was the bag itself for the equipment. It was a large backpack that was easy to carry and was quite spacious overall. I didn’t feel stressed folding up the board and I’m sure I could pack in extra goodies if need be.
