A little bit of summer is what the whole year is about, and we are pumped that it’s finally here!

To kick off the season, we are shopping all of our favorite Memorial Day deals on fashion, furniture, TVs and more.

Afterward, we will layer on our sunscreen, jump in the pool, grill some delicious food, and of course, head to the beach.

But to successfully tackle all of our summer plans, we need to have the right clothing essentials. Think swimsuits, trunks, hats and cover-ups.

So we headed to Amazon to find the best summer clothing essentials that are both stylish and affordable (nothing is over $45!).
