Top 12 Reader Favorites // April 2026

Without further ado, these are your top 12 (yes, I went with 12 this time because a few were too close to call at the end!) most-loved pieces from the month.

12. PAIGE Mason Mid Rise Ankle Straight Leg Jeans

also wearing: PAIGE Syrie Top (M) // Dolce Vita Cely Thong Sandals (8) // J.Crew woven chainlink earrings // J.Crew straw clutch // Lele Sadoughi beaded bracelet // YSL sunnies

These white slim straight ankle jeans were an MVP in my Florida travel capsule, and somehow I made it two full weeks without having to wash them. They made it through six (!) dinners without a mark, which feels like a small miracle. They were starting to feel a bit snug in the waist by the end (thank goodness for button expanders), but overall, they held up beautifully.

Fit note: These run true to size; I have the 30.

11. Caslon Shaker Stitch V-Neck Pima Cotton Cardigan

also wearing: Splendid Josie Stripe Tank (L) // PAIGE Stevie Ankle Straight Leg (30) // Dolce Vita Cely Thong Sandals (8) // Anthro rainbow stone necklace // Lili Claspe shield earrings

This is such a great little classic cardigan, with a v-neck button-front and a timeless shaker stitch in 100% pima cotton. It’s perfect for throwing on over tank tops, t-shirts, or dresses. I actually wish I’d brought it on my trip. I could have used it on a few chilly mornings and evenings.

I chose the white because it’s so versatile, but it also comes in a pretty light blue, and the navy/white stripe has the perfect spring nautical vibe (and is 30% off right now!).

Fit note: It runs small; I went with the medium.

10. EVEREVE Nora V Neck Muscle Tee

also wearing: FRAME The Lax Frayed Flare (30) // Sam Edelman Elissa (8.5) // Jenny Bird Gemma Hoops c/o // similar necklace

Such a flattering, easy top to throw on with jeans or shorts this summer, this muscle tee has a v-neckline and raglan sleeves in a soft Pima cotton fabric. It comes in a bunch of great colors, but I chose this fresh shade of green. It pairs beautifully with both blue and white denim.

Fit note: It runs a bit small. I returned the small (shown here) and ordered the medium for a more relaxed fit and to allow for a little shrinkage.

9. Splendid Devon SS Cardigan

also wearing: PAIGE Sasha 32″ Wide Leg Jean (30) // Sam Edelman Elissa Slingbacks (8.5) // Rodan Pearl Earrings c/o Lizzie Fortunato // Astra Pavé Paperclip Necklace & Isla Gold Bead Necklace c/o Thatch // Lele Sadoughi Diana Triple Row Bracelet

An easy, button-up short sleeve cardigan in a shaker knit, in a gorgeous shade of red that pairs beautifully with blue or white denim.

Fit note: True to size, or size down if you’re between sizes. I was pleasantly surprised by how well the small fit me.

8. Dolce Vita Deane Strappy Sandal

These sandals are the best of both worlds. They combine a strappy upper with a molded footbed for comfort, so you get that pretty, minimal look with more support than most flat sandals. I love the addition of the polished gold hardware accent. I have a similar pair from last year that I’ve literally walked miles in (more like the Dolce Vita Dom), but you really can’t go wrong with either.

Fit note: I found these run a smidge large. I tried the 8.5 and ended up exchanging them for an 8.

7. Madewell The Jules Slim-Straight Jean

also wearing: Splendid Lounge Denim Jacket c/o (M) // Splendid Faye V-Neck Tee (L) // similar belt // Dolce Vita Delaney Sneakers (8.5) // Marlyn Schiff Ophelia Bracelet c/o // T-Bar Pebble Pendant // Jenny Bird Gemma Hoops c/o // faux leather woven bag // YSL sunnies

One of my most-worn pairs of jeans this spring, these are a really great mid-priced straight ankle option. I love this Atlin Wash, and I also have them in the Vintage Canvas. They have an easy fit and are comfortable and incredibly versatile. They also come in standard, petite, tall, and plus-size options.

Fit note: Size down if you’re between sizes—I went with the 29.

6. Talbots Crewneck Sweater – Multi Stripe

also wearing: FRAME Pixie Lax (30P) // Talbots canvas sandals c/o (8)

The pretty blue and green stripes on an ivory background make this classic cotton blend crewneck sweater a great piece for milder spring days. It pairs beautifully with light wash blue jeans, and it’s currently 50% off!

Fit note: True to size, or size down if in between; I have the medium.

5. J.Crew Slim-Wide Jeans

also wearing: EVEREVE Jessa Utility Bomber (S) // Splendid Josie Stripe Tank (L) // Dolce Vita Cely Thong Sandals (8) // EVEREVE belt (M/L) // Dolce Vita Linzy Crossbody // Thatch Goldie Necklace c/o // Luv Aj bracelet set & hoop earrings c/o

These jeans in a soft white wash strike a nice balance between a straight and wide-leg silhouette. They’re cut slim through the hips and thighs, with a relaxed, not-too-wide leg and a 27″ inseam that hits above the ankle. The ultra-stretchy denim is comfortable and flattering, and they feature J.Crew’s Perfecting Pockets™. They’re also on sale right now.

Fit note: Size down; I have the 29.

4. Bryan Anthonys Sea Seeker Pendant Necklace

also wearing: Bryan Anthonys You Are My Sunshine Icon Necklace c/o // Luv Aj hoops c/o // Madewell vest tank (M)

The perfect summery necklace that I’ve worn so much on my last two Florida trips, with a sand dollar pendant on a delicate, adjustable chain. It’s brass with a 14k gold (nickel-free) finish—really nice quality and so pretty. It’s currently 30% off, and you can use my code JOLYNNE20 for an extra 20% off any Bryan Anthonys purchase.

3. Dolce Vita Delaney Sneaker

Super cute and comfortable low-profile sneakers. They’re a great way to add a little interest to your everyday outfits, and I love the coral/pink laces for a fun pop of color. They’re very comfortable and currently 40% off!

Fit note: They run true to size; I have the 8.5.

2. Tommy Bahama Two Palms Beleza Blossom Linen Shift Dress

also wearing: Sam Edelman sandals (8) // J.Crew clutch // Lizzie Fortunato earrings c/o // Thatch Astra Necklace & Thatch Isla Necklace c/o // Lele Sadoughi beaded bracelet

This dress probably needs no introduction. This breezy linen shift in a gorgeous floral print has 3/4 sleeves and is finished with an optional tie waist. Sadly, it’s sold out at Tommy Bahama, but there are still a few sizes left at Bloomingdale’s—and it’s also available in a pretty neutral palm tree print. It’s perfect for travel or summer events.

Fit note: Size up if you’re between sizes; I take the medium.

And in first place, the winner is . . . 🥁

1. J.Crew Factory Crewneck Beach Sweater

also wearing: Madewell Jules (29) // Keds Maisie c/o (8.5)

A lightweight slub cotton sweater that’s perfect with shorts or linen pants on mild spring days or summer nights at the beach. It comes in a few colors, but I really love this white.

Fit tip: I sized up to a medium—it felt roomy at first but was perfect after washing and drying.

And that’s a wrap! It’s always fun to see what resonates most with you all. I’m excited to be back home for the next few weeks and getting back to business as usual around here. If you have any requests for post topics, I’m wide open!
