The temperature outside hit 80 degrees in New York City this week, giving me the perfect reason to swap my spring wardrobe for one filled with summery pieces. After spending a few hours assessing my warm-weather options from last year, I found that many of my favorites had one thing in common: they hailed from the sustainable fashion brand Reformation. The brand has been my go-to for easy summer basics for years now, so I took the time to scour the web for the best lightweight picks from Reformation for you also to consider adding to your wardrobe this season.
The 23 pieces I found run the gamut, from the perfect pair of petite linen pants to linen dresses to vacation wardrobe staples like matching sets and elevated T-shirts. A few of my picks can do double-duty in your wardrobe as summer office outfit essentials. Consider this your easy summer shopping list with all fashion editor-approved pieces, all priced at under $250. Yes, you can look great this summer without breaking the bank.
This mini dress comes in several colors, including this bright lime green hue, the perfect shade to add a pop to your neutral summer wardrobe.

Consider this ruched white tank top as a way to upgrade your workwear selection this summer. Style it under a linen blazer with trousers for an effortless ensemble.
These are some of the best linen pants on the market if you're under 5'3, like me. You can shop them in a few colors, but the classic white pair always wins.
Sometimes, the key to staying cool is wearing a blouse that billows out rather than clings to the skin. This top, made from lightweight organic cotton fabric, does the trick.
There's a meme online about New Yorkers swapping their dark winter pieces for their dark summery ones. Consider this tank dress if you rely on an all-black wardrobe year-round, no matter where you live.
I love this black top for a few reasons. First, it's made from dreamy, lightweight linen. Second, the halter silhouette gives the feeling of going strapless without forgoing straps altogether.
Pack these white linen shorts in your carry-on and live in them all summer long—they're that good.
This white dress is begging to be packed away on an "old money" inspired vacation, and it's not just because it's named for one of the chicest locations in the world.
I love this matching set. The word "knit" in the title doesn't mean it'll cause you to overheat. The bra-style top will also keep you cool.
The easy off-the-shoulder silhouette of this midi dress teamed with the stretchy knit fabric, equals a perfect day-to-night option.
I love this burnt orange color in the summertime because it instantly makes you look more glowy.
I love the silhouette of this white midi skirt from the brand because it can double as a beachy coverup. There's also a matching crop top for an all-white monochromatic outfit.
Powder blue was one of spring's most in-demand hues, but I love it for summer, too. It offers a change of pace from your usual palette of whites, creams, and tans without feeling too bold.
If you're not over bows, try this tie-front linen top. I love it with jeans or a longer skirt.
Organic cotton gives you a nice break from linen, especially in the form of this breezy black two-piece.
Who needs a basic T-shirt when you have this sweet V-neck top? Adorned with lace and a delicate bow, it'll look great with everything else in your closet.

The best summer dresses are mini summer dresses. This black-and-white one is a newer way to wear 2023's "quiet luxury" trend.
