I hate to sound like a broken record, but it bears repeating for the sake of this story. I’m picky about everything. I value quality food (oh, how I yearn for the cuisine in Italy right now!), a nice, cozy home (finding a good NYC apartment is a job in and of itself), and uplifting, inspiring friends. But, my pickiness comes out most when I’m shopping. In fact, I was just pursuing the racks with my sister who’s visiting from L.A. and found myself scrunching my nose in mehness more and more. But hey, it makes me a smart shopper because I won’t just buy anything. 

So, given this, when I recommend something, you know that it’s 100 percent worth it. And I decided to take my pickiness to Amazon Big Spring Sale, where I, quite literally, went through hundreds of pages to find the nine best spring-perfect items that are so good, I’m definitely not missing my chance to snag them at a lower price. Below, check out the picky editor-approved spring and summer fashion deals to snag ASAP, from trendy jeans to a luxe-looking tote I plan on carrying for my upcoming travels.

Free People Sydney Shrunken Cardi

I’ve been wearing a cardigan as a shirt all winter long, and I plan to keep doing so come spring, too. Of course, I’ll be swapping my cashmere options for lighterweight options, like this Free People option that’s also designed in the perfect warm weather hue: a sunny yellow. 

Ciao Lucia Deeda Dress

I just found my dream dress. This Ciao Lucia midi has dainty ballerina written all over it, making it perfectly on-trend with the Balletcore movement, not to mention it has pockets (!!!) and looks equally great with sneakers and ballet flats.

Lele Sadoughi Greta Raffia Headband

I don’t switch up my hair cut or color come summertime, so what I do instead is incorporate summer-y accessories, like this adorable Lele Sadoughi raffia headband I’m 100 percent packing for my next beach getaway (upcoming honeymoon!!)

Abrand Carrie Tie Dixie Jeans

The straight-leg silhouette is *chef’s kiss,* but I especially love the drawstring waistband that gives a classic pair of jeans a dainty upgrade. The $84 price tag isn’t too bad, either.

Ciao Lucia Amira Top

I want to wear this top for everything this season—and good thing I can. Its versatile, flattering design works with jeans (like the Abrand style I just called out), as well as silky slip skirts or even billowy linen midis for some contrast.

Calvin Klein Modern Cotton Lightly Lined Triangle Wireless Bralette

Whenever this Calvin Klein bralette goes on sale, like it is right now for a super-low $24, I stock up. It’s so soft and comfy, and in summer’s heat, I like to wear it as a top when I’m lounging at home.

Good American Twill Good Ease Pants

These Good American pants strike the perfect balance between utilitarian cargos and trending wide leg jeans. Plus, the deep green color gives the popular silhouette a cool touch. Style them with a white tee and pointed-toe pumps for an easy-going but chic outfit.

The Drop Carlota Strapless Linen Maxi Dress

Come spring and summer, I whip out my linen staples like it’s nobody’s business. The lightweight material looks so chic not to mention wear easily in the heat, and this strapless maxi from The Drop is the perfect blank canvas from which to build a look. Its value lies in its simplicity, and it’s totally worth the now-$56 price.

Cushionaire Belinda Lace Detail Casual Sneakers

In case you missed the memo, ballet sneakers are the next big thing for spring (think: sneakers but with dainty ballet detailing). This Amazon $60 pair has the classic sneaker silhouette but with a romance, lace trimming and sheer ribbon laces.
