Whether you’re planning a trip to Italy, venturing anywhere else, or want to make every last August outfit count, today I’ve got you covered with a whopping 30 shopping picks inspired by 12 outfits I recently wore on vacation in Capri. And, by recently, I mean in the last 10 days, so you can rest assured my research was up to date, and the pieces I wore are largely still available (and in many cases on sale).

From beachwear to dinner outfits and even an easy walking-around option, below are what I would call my summer MVPs. They include everything from Zara and Reformation linen to investment-worthy designer buys and plenty of in-between finds—all of which I ran by my editor colleagues before packing.

After going back and forth on what to style this perfect Reformation top with, I ultimately decided on an all-white look.

Pajama sets are my secret to cool and comfortable cover-ups.

A departure from my usual style, I wasn't sure what to style this dreamy Marina Moscone top with until I remembered I had these fun, silky pants that matched the pink in the flowers perfectly.

If you can't tell, I often default to all-white outfits when on vacation. I feel like you can never go wrong.

This was for a beach day that required a little hike beforehand. Thankfully I had worn my beloved sambas on the plane, so I paired them with an easy button-down and linen pants.

Later that day, I changed into this fun pareo that I had scored majorly on sale.

Another sale find I waite d all season to get my hands on was this Altuzarra miniskirt. I love how it looks with white linen and accessories.

It took me about 30 seconds to place my order from J.Crew after seeing this on Who What Wear Editor-in-Chief Kat Collins. After wearing it, I think swim skirts are going to be my new thing.

Surprise, surprise, it's another Reformation top! I wore this green cropped linen piece backward because I loved the tie detail and paired it with an embroidered jacket and white pants.

I'm really into Dissh right now, and loved that this dress fit me perfectly with no alterations. (At 5'2", that's a big deal.) I added a belt for some waist definition and because I love the all-white with black accessories look right now.

This one-piece by Alexandra Miro was probably the most flattering bathing suit I've ever worn. It comes with a belt, but I opted to skip it since I was styling it with pants.

This is what I quickly changed into right after my flight to walk around town in until our hotel room was ready. I wore the pants on the plane, so all I had to do was swap my T-shirt for this shirt and my sneakers for slide sandals.

Next, what to buy from Nordstrom if your vibe is *rich mom* but your budget is $100.
