Top 10 Best Sellers: May 2025

First up, here are the 10 best-selling items of the month, based on the number of orders placed through my links. I’m listing them in classic Top Ten countdown style, with the most popular item at the end.

#10. T3 Travel-Size Hair Dryer with Auto Dual Voltage & Folding Handle // A bit of a controversial choice, but I always travel with my own hair dryer—and I never regret it. This one is lightweight, folds in half, and has auto dual voltage, so it’s perfect for the UK and beyond. It dries hair quickly while smoothing frizz and adding shine, and it just went 65% off at Amazon!

also wearing: Athleta Getaway Tank (M) // Paul Green Hadley (8)

#9. Athleta Brooklyn Heights High Rise Cargo Pant // My go-to warm-weather travel pants made the Top Ten again, and for good reason. They’re lightweight, breathable, and comfortable, with a flattering fit and handy cargo pockets—perfect for stashing a room key or phone. True to size, or size down if you’re in between.

also wearing: Z Supply Elin Stripe Rib Tank (M) // SPANX AirEssentials Half Zip Sweatshirt in Very Black (S) // SPANX AirEssentials Wide Leg Pants in Very Black (M) // AWAY The Bigger Carry-On Flex in Jet Black // AWAY Large Featherlight Backpack in Jet Black

#8. New Balance 327 Sneaker // A sporty, on-trend sneaker with bold logo detail and lots of fun color options. They have great cushion and support for long walking days and come in at a great price point. The narrow toe box didn’t work for me personally, but they’re a favorite for many.

also wearing: EVEREVE Cecilia Shirred Top (S) // Bambi raffia slides (8) // Dragon Diffusion tote

#7. MOTHER The Insider Step Frayed Hem Crop Jeans in Out Of The Blue // A fresh take on my favorite cropped flares—this bright blue wash is perfect for spring/summer, and I’ve had them on repeat ever since I grabbed them on sale a few weeks ago. They’re made from MOTHER’s signature stretch denim that flatters, feels great, and holds its shape. True to size, or size down if in between.

also wearing: J.Crew linen tee (M) // Gola sneakers (7.5)

#6. Gap Factory 5″ Mid Rise Soft Denim Shorts // I haven’t worn shorts much yet this year, but when I do, these are the ones I grab. They have a classic fit with a finished hem and soft, mid-indigo wash with a versatile 5″ inseam. An easy summer staple at a great price. True to size, or size down if in between.

also wearing: MOTHER The Hustler Roller Sneak (29)

#5. PAIGE Jill Ankle Strap Espadrille Platform Wedge Sandal // These sleek platform wedges add just the right amount of height for full-length jeans. The intertwined leather straps are soft and stylish, and they’re surprisingly comfortable right out of the box—no rubbing, no blisters. They’ve quickly become my go-to “going-out” sandal this season. 

#4. amika brooklyn bombshell Blowout Volume Spray // I packed this travel-size blowout spray for England, and it was perfect for adding light volume while protecting my fine, thin hair from heat. It’s lightweight, non-sticky, and gives just enough lift without weighing hair down.

also wearing: MOTHER The Hustler Roller Sneak (29) // PAIGE Jill Ankle Strap Espadrille Platform Wedge Sandal (8) // Jenny Bird Ola Bangle // Anna Beck necklace // similar hoops // NAGHEDI Nomad Hobo in Cashmere

#3. Rails Arlene Stripe Linen Blend Ruffle Shoulder Top // This breezy linen blend top has the prettiest ruffle detail at the shoulder and a flattering v-neckline. I love the muted color palette, and it’s one of those pieces that dresses up or down so easily. It’s a bit of a splurge, but I’ve already worn it a ton this spring.

#2. Catrice Under Eye Brightener // This little pot of magic was the dark horse of the month! It instantly brightens the under-eye area with a lightweight, creamy texture that doesn’t settle into fine lines. A budget-friendly beauty find that really delivers!

also wearing:  Caslon stripe sweater (S) // Veronica Beard Via Slides (8) // Amazon woven crossbody // Anna Beck necklace

#1. Wit & Wisdom Tatum ‘Ab’Solution Frayed High Waist Ankle Flare Jeans // These jeans were by far the most popular item this month! A budget-friendly alternative to the MOTHER Insider, they feature a cropped ankle flare with a frayed hem and Wit & Wisdom’s signature ‘Ab’Solution powermesh panels to mold and hold. Available in several pretty colors for spring/summer and currently on sale. Sizes 00–18, regular and petite; true to size.

#5. The Shoes I Added to My Wardrobe This Spring // I’ve been slowly updating my shoe lineup for spring, and these are the pairs that ended up in my closet. It’s a mix of practical neutrals, fun textures, and a few trendier styles I just couldn’t resist. Some are already in regular rotation, while others haven’t gotten as much wear as I expected—but each one either filled a gap or gave me something new to try this season.

#4. Spring Try-On Haul: Travel Picks & Everyday Basics // Before my trip to England, I was doing quite a bit of shopping—everything from lightweight cardigans and travel-friendly tops to sneakers and summer sandals. I was focused on finding pieces that would work for the plane, city exploring, and casual evenings in the countryside, but I was also thinking ahead to summer here at home. Not everything worked out, but of course, I shared it all!

#3. What I Wore in England: A 10-Day Capsule Wardrobe // I spent 10 days exploring London and the Cotswolds with just a carry-on suitcase, and in this post, I shared everything I packed and wore. You’ll find outfit photos, a full travel capsule, and notes on the pieces I’d bring again (or skip) next time.

#2. Skip the Tee: Try These Fresh Spring Tops Instead // I’m usually a t-shirt-and-jeans kind of girl, but lately I’ve been mixing it up with tops that feel a little fresher and more pulled together. Think blouses, button-ups, and lightweight knits—easy swaps that add interest without any extra effort. If you’re in the mood for a change too, here are a few I’m loving right now.

#1. Top Summer Denim Trends for Women in 2025 // Denim is a year-round staple, but once the weather warms up, I start reaching for lighter washes, looser fits, and more cropped styles. And this year, it’s not just about jeans—denim is showing up in all kinds of fresh ways, from updated jackets and skirts to relaxed shorts and breezy dresses. And of course, I have thoughts!

Final Thoughts

June is shaping up to be a fun one. I’ve got posts coming on what tops to wear with white jeans, comfort sandals that aren’t frumpy, how to style wide-leg jeans for summer, a round-up of wearable summer trends, and (finally!) my England travel itinerary. If there’s something you’d love to see on the blog this month, feel free to leave a comment—I always love hearing your ideas!

I’ll be keeping an eye on what’s trending as we head into summer, and as always, I’ll continue sharing my honest thoughts on what’s worth buying (and what’s not). Thanks for being here and for shopping through my links—it truly means a lot!
