You may have an emotional support drink (mine is a morning coffee), playlist, or snack to comfort you through the ups and downs of your day, but I bet you haven’t thought about your emotional-support fashion items. Hear me out: We rely on our comfort items in times of need—the same sentiment could be applied to shopping, IMO. Everyone has certain brands or retailers they can count on for fun, practical pieces that boost their confidence and give them a pick-me-up. For me, it’s Free People. Since high school, I’ve known I could run into a Free People store and find a last-minute outfit for an event, or browse the website for inspiration. As I approach my mid-twenties, that feeling still stands.
With summer practically here, I scrolled through the retailer’s new arrivals and was not disappointed. There are breezy sundresses, seasonally appropriate miniskirts, and on-trend accessories at a shockingly affordable price. I know I’ll be shopping, and I invite you to join me.
