The heart of Poor Girl Summer is wearing what you already own, so everyone's Poor Girl Summer is going to look slightly different. Maybe all you own is structured summer dresses and paper bag shorts. That's what Poor Girl Summer will look like for you, then.
But here are 20 core items that really define the look. Check your closet and see how many you already own:
1. Faded oversized graphic tee (Don't worry if it's not faded yet, a few more times through the wash and it will be)
2. Plain colored baby tee
3. Ribbed tank top, slightly worn in
4. Oversized button down shirt, bonus points for hand-me-down, thrifted, or good deal.
5. Lightweight hoodie
6. Crewneck sweatshirt, a little boxy
7. Straight leg vintage style jeans
8. Slightly baggy mom jeans
9. Cutoff denim shorts
10. Simple cotton sundress
11. Basic black leggings, not overly tight
12. Loose linen or cotton pants
13. Oversized lightweight cardigan
14. Flannel shirt, soft and broken in
15. Maxi skirt
16. Basic zip-up jacket or windbreaker
17. Old school sneakers, slightly worn
18. Flat sandals or Birkenstock-style shoes
19. Thick socks, visible with sneakers or slides
20. Simple canvas tote bag
The pattern you’ll notice here is nothing is too structured, too new, or too perfect. If something has a story, even better.
If you want to level this up, the real magic is in how you mix them. Like pairing something soft and oversized with something slightly fitted, or layering in a way that looks unplanned but still makes sense.
