Skims Long Tank Top

Quince Bella Stretch Patch Pocket Wide Leg Jeans

Old Navy Oversized Button-Down Boyfriend Shirt

Vivaia Square-Toe Stress Free Chunky Heels

When you're looking for a casual outfit, it's hard to beat the classics. Pairing a crisp, <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-white-button-down-shirts" target="_self"><ins>button-down</ins></a> with lightweight, cropped jeans in a relaxed fit creates a simple yet put-together look that's ideal for running errands or grabbing a quick brunch.
This outfit is especially appropriate for the low to mid-70s thanks to its thoughtful design. Breathable <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-ankle-jeans" target="_self"><ins>ankle jeans</ins></a> with a slightly cropped hem are a little breezier than heavier denim and help show off some cute square-toe heels with a low block heel. Meanwhile, layering a crisp poplin shirt over a fitted cotton tank leaves you feeling warm but not too hot.&nbsp;
Savings tip: For bold, chunky, and comfortable heels that work perfectly with this everyday look, save with a <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/deals/vivaia-coupon-code" target="_self"><ins>VIVAIA coupon</ins></a> and find sustainable footwear that keeps you stylish and comfortable all day long.

If you're getting ready for a day of work in a business casual setting, a <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-womens-blazers" target="_self"><ins>stylish blazer</ins></a> is one of our favorite pieces for all weather in the 70s. A lightweight option in a breathable fabric blend keeps you comfortable whether you're in the air conditioning or outdoors.
While you could pair the blazer with cropped pants, we love the look of it with a flowy midi dress in a feminine silhouette. The feminine vibe of the dress balances out a structured jacket, and choosing a <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/collections/dresses-on-amazon" target="_self"><ins>longer dress</ins></a> with movement adds a little fun to the blazer while keeping things professional. To finish off the look, try some comfy loafers or ballet flats in soft leather that ground the softer look of the dress (Image credit: <a href="https://l.instagram.com/?u=https%3A%2F%2Flinktr.ee%2Fimhrisa%3Ffbclid%3DPAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAadkvBUcZlnWCTkVV0whI4H__zTBa07-eGCunWQdXcvbZC3IWwk9VOyK3VObjA_aem_E_A6hKMH7QMzgyLXzN0eNA&e=AT2OihpcARKRKDSAKhWyBvdhjBHrwq-Cx07Eq-7SulLtNgOlnmXHvkg13LxG1L4QxiUkMktWkM_8kItG-Lv4ClWETTynsaYX-zED-7s" target="_self">@imhrisa</a>)

Office-Ready Outfit—Midi Dress + Lightweight Blazer

Quince 100% European Linen Pleated Trouser

Clarks Arwell Walk Sandals

Ragabond Harvest Vintage Wash Tee

Quince Italian Leather Quilted Crossbody Bag

This combo is a great example of how the right material transforms regular apparel into clothes to wear in mid 70-degree weather. Instead of thick joggers, this outfit features a pair of breezy, <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-linen-pants" target="_self"><ins>wide-leg linen pants</ins></a> in a relaxed fit. Not only does the casual silhouette help keep things stylish, but it also ensures you won't overheat. When styling this look, go for lightweight linen or cotton pants in neutral tones—but make sure they're not too sheer.
The other essential element of this outfit is an <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/collections/trending-fashion-tees" target="_self"><ins>interesting T-shirt</ins></a> with personality. Choosing a tee with graphics, bold stripes, unique sleeves, or ruching is an easy way to take the look from "blah" to "wow." To flatter your figure, try a cropped style or tuck it into your pants. Finish it all off with a pair of comfortable flat sandals with adjustable straps and a cute crossbody bag to tie it together.
Savings tip: For ultra-comfortable flat sandals that are perfect for weekend excursions, save with a <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/deals/clarks-promo-code" target="_self"><ins>Clarks promo code</ins></a> and find quality footwear that combines style and all-day comfort for your casual warm(ish) weather looks.

Old Navy Longline Open-Front Sweater

Quince Allegra European Leather Belt

VIVAIA Pointed-Toe Stilettos (Arabella)

A slip dress and cardigan are perfect if you want to look chic without being overly dressed up when it's in the low 70s. The sweater adds warmth in case a cool breeze picks up during your date night or dinner out. We like that the elegance of a silk slip dress in a flattering midi length pairs well with a cozy yet sleek cashmere cardigan in a complementary neutral.
While basic neutrals look fine, it takes your outfit up a notch when everything coordinates well. For example, in this look, check out how the patterned shoes coordinate with the <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-cardigans-for-women" target="_self"><ins>cardigan</ins></a>. This helps your look stay as cohesive as possible.

Vionic Winny Sneaker

Quince Cotton Linen Twill Short Sleeve Coverall Jumpsuit

Quince Italian Leather Mini Bow Bag

By Anthropologie Charlie Leather Belt

We love a good utility jumpsuit like a cotton-linen blend coverall with functional details. This style is great because you can layer it for high-60s weather or wear it as a standalone in low-70s weather. The more structured fabric creates a polished look, yet it's still a chill enough outfit to wear with some fun sneakers in crisp white leather.&nbsp;
While pairing a jumpsuit with <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/collections/trending-white-sneakers" target="_self"><ins>white sneakers</ins></a> works seamlessly for going out to lunch or a casual Friday, you might want to put in a little more effort when wearing the jumpsuit out with friends or to a farmers market. Thoughtful touches—like cuffed ankles, a leather belt, or statement jewelry—can instantly elevate the look.&nbsp;

Quince Italian Leather Slide Sandal

FP Collection New Horizons Weekender

As temps climb into the mid to upper 70s, a flowy maxi dress paired with a jacket becomes a go-to for outdoor plans. Whether you're spending a breezy day at the beach or heading to a picnic, a style like this—a breezy maxi in a lightweight fabric with interesting details—offers sun coverage while keeping you cool. If you feel a chill, top it off with a classic denim jacket in a medium wash to tone down dressier <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/collections/easter-dresses" target="_self"><ins>spring frocks</ins></a> and keep you toasty on cool evenings.
This is really one of those outfits where almost any combination works. However, we've found you can take things up a level by choosing your silhouette carefully. Consider a cropped <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-denim-jackets-2016" target="_self"><ins>denim jacket</ins></a> with a looser dress or an oversized one with a tighter dress.

English Factory High-Rise Gingham Wide-Leg Pants

This outfit is perfect for those teetering-on-70-degree days when you want to look a little polished without sacrificing warmth. Start with a pair of on-trend gingham pants in a flattering straight-leg silhouette, then add a cozy sweater in a contrasting hue and soft knit. Depending on the forecast, layer a <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/collections/sweaters-under-100" target="_self"><ins>chunkier knit</ins></a> over a long-sleeved tee or opt for a lightweight sweater over a tank.
To elevate the look even more, add ankle boots with a low heel and a <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/collections/affordable-trending-handbags" target="_self"><ins>chic handbag</ins></a> in a fun color. These thoughtful touches pull the outfit together and make it feel just as right for a stylish café as it does for a casual day out.

If your skin tends to freak out easily, anti-inflammatory foods are going to be your new best friends. These are the heavy hitters:
<ol>
<li>Salmon is pretty much the MVP here. It's loaded with omega-3s, vitamin D, and this thing called astaxanthin that basically tells inflammation to chill out while helping your skin hold onto moisture.</li>
<li>Turmeric is having a major moment, and for good reason. The curcumin in it is like a natural skin whisperer—it helps with acne, evens out your tone, and might even help with aging. Some people swear it boosts collagen production too. We love stirring it into hot water like a tea when we're feeling fancy.</li>
<li>Ginger brings the heat (literally) and is packed with compounds that tackle those skin-aging free radicals.</li>
<li>Leafy greens are the overachievers of the vegetable world. Vitamins A, K, C, plus minerals and antioxidants that help your skin repair itself and turn over new cells. If you're not into the crunch factor of raw spinach, throw some kale in a smoothie and call it a day.</li>

Does your skin look dry and flaky, no matter how much you spend on luxury moisturizers? Your skin barrier keeps moisture locked in for that plump, dewy look. To build up the skin barrier, there's no substitute for moisture that reaches skin cells via the bloodstream. When we're hydrated, higher moisture levels within skin cells boost volume and elasticity. Refreshing foods like cucumbers, berries, avocados, and chia all hydrate and lock in moisture using the power of omega-3s and natural water content.

Collagen is basically the fountain of youth, but you can't just slap it on your face and call it a day. You need to build it from within.
Bone broth is having a renaissance for good reason—it's naturally packed with collagen and amino acids that keep your skin firm and bouncy. Drink it straight if you're feeling ambitious, or use it as a soup base.
Citrus fruits are collagen's best friend because vitamin C is <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK507709/" target="_blank"><ins>essential for actually making the stuff</ins></a>. Plus they help protect your skin from free radical damage. Win-win.
Sweet potatoes are basically glow-up food. All that <a href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0308814615303356" target="_blank"><ins>beta-carotene converts to vitamin A</ins></a>, which speeds up cell turnover and keeps collagen from breaking down too fast.

Supplements aren't miracle workers, but they can actually move the needle when you're trying to get your skin sorted. Food comes first, obviously—but sometimes you need backup.
Here's what actually works: zinc, probiotics, omega-3s, collagen, and biotin. These aren't just Instagram wellness nonsense either. Zinc's been a <a href="https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4120804/" target="_blank"><ins>dermatologist go-to for acne since the '70s</ins></a>, which tells you something about staying power.
What these do is pretty straightforward—they help calm down inflammation while feeding your skin cells the building blocks they're craving. Think of them as insurance for when your diet isn't hitting every mark.

Supplements Dermatologists Recommend for Skin Health

Here's where we talk about the stuff that's not doing your skin any favors. We're not saying never eat these things (because that's not realistic), but maybe don't make them the stars of your daily menu. From knowing what to cut out to mastering the art of satisfying swaps, we have you covered.
<h3>1. Dairy (Especially Milk and Ice Cream)</h3>
Dairy can ramp up hormonal activity—specifically something called IGF-1—which leads to oily skin and clogged pores. The casein and whey proteins can also trigger breakouts in some people.
Our go-to swaps: almond, oat, or coconut milk versions of everything.
<h3>2. Refined Sugar (Candy, Soda, Pastries)</h3>
Spikes in blood sugar and insulin from these foods can trigger inflammation and excess oil production. They also promote advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) that break down collagen and accelerate aging.&nbsp;
Sweet tooth fix: fresh fruit or really good dark chocolate (70% cacao or higher).
<h3>3. White Bread, Pasta, and Processed Carbs</h3>
Foods with a high glycemic index induce quick blood sugar spikes that cause inflammation and acne. They also fuel sebum production as they break down into glucose.&nbsp;
Better options: quinoa, brown rice, oats—stuff that won't send your blood sugar on a joyride.
<h3>4. Fried and Greasy Foods</h3>
Foods cooked in refined oils like canola or soybean are heavy on omega-6s that are linked with gut inflammation.&nbsp;
The workaround: baking or air-frying with avocado oil or olive oil instead.
<h3>5. Whey Protein Powder</h3>
While whey does have some health benefits, people prone to acne might want to stay away from its insulin spikes and oil-production triggers. Whey is a no-no for skin if dairy triggers your acne.&nbsp;
The swap: Use plant-based protein powder made with brown rice, pea, or hemp instead.
<h3>6. Alcohol</h3>
Alcohol dehydrates your skin and can trigger inflammation, especially if you're prone to rosacea or general redness.
Skin-friendly alternatives: sparkling water with lime or kombucha for that festive feeling.

Foods to Avoid If You Want Clear Skin

This is your bookmark-worthy reference guide. We've broken down the most effective skin foods by what they actually do, with real prep ideas you'll actually use.
<h3>Anti-Inflammatory Powerhouses</h3>
<ul>
<li>Salmon - Grill it, bake it, toss it on salads for those inflammation-fighting omega-3s</li>
<li>Turmeric - Smoothies, golden lattes, curry dishes—however you can get that curcumin in</li>
<li>Ginger - Fresh in teas, stir-fries, smoothies. Your skin will thank you for the free radical protection</li>
<li>Leafy Greens - Smoothie base or quick sauté for vitamins A, C, and K</li>
<li>Berries - Straight up snacking, yogurt toppers, or freezer smoothie stash</li>
</ul>
<h3>Hydration Heroes</h3>
<ul>
<li>Cucumbers - Snack slices, infused water, or blend into gazpacho when you're feeling fancy</li>
<li>Avocados - Toast, smoothies, guac—basically the perfect healthy fat delivery system</li>
<li>Chia Seeds - Overnight puddings or yogurt sprinkle for omega-3s</li>
<li>Coconut Water - Straight from the carton or as smoothie liquid</li>
<li>Watermelon - Summer snacks or blended drinks that taste like vacation</li>
</ul>
<h3>Antioxidant All-Stars</h3>
<ul>
<li>Sweet Potatoes - Roasted, baked into fries, or soup base for that beta-carotene glow</li>
<li>Citrus Fruits - Morning fuel, salad brightener, or infused water for vitamin C</li>
<li>Tomatoes - Salads, sauces, soups—lycopene however you can get it</li>
<li>Red Peppers - Raw with hummus, roasted, stir-fried for vitamin E power</li>
<li>Dark Chocolate (70%+) - Small squares for antioxidants without the sugar crash</li>
</ul>
<h3>Gut Health Champions</h3>
<ul>
<li>Greek Yogurt - Breakfast bowls, smoothie base, or afternoon snack with probiotics</li>
<li>Kimchi - Side dish, bowl topper, stir-fry addition for fermented goodness</li>
<li>Oats - Overnight oats, smoothies, baking projects for prebiotic fiber</li>
<li>Kefir - Drink it straight or use as milk substitute</li>
<li>Bananas - Smoothie sweetener, pre-workout fuel, or bedtime snack for prebiotics</li>
</ul>

Your Skincare-Backed Grocery List

Creating a sustainable clear skin grocery list isn't about perfection—it's about choosing foods that work with your lifestyle while supporting your skin goals. The key is building a foundation of skin-loving foods you'll actually eat and prepare.
<h3>Start by grouping foods by skin benefit:</h3>
<ul>
<li>Glow boosters: Focus on antioxidant-rich fruits and vegetables that fight free radicals</li>
<li>Hydration supporters: Prioritize water-rich foods and healthy fats for plump, moisturized skin</li>
<li>Gut health promoters: Include fermented foods and fiber-rich options to support the gut-skin connection</li>
<li>Anti-inflammatory champions: Stock up on omega-3 rich foods and natural inflammation fighters</li>
</ul>
<h3>Match your food choices to your lifestyle:</h3>
<ul>
<li>For busy schedules: Choose grab-and-go options like berries, nuts, and pre-cut vegetables</li>
<li>If you love smoothies: Stock frozen fruits, leafy greens, and protein powders for quick blends</li>
<li>For regular cooks: Focus on versatile ingredients like salmon, sweet potatoes, and spices</li>
<li>When time is tight: Consider meal kits with skin-supportive recipes or pre-prepped options</li>
</ul>
<h3>Keep it simple and sustainable:</h3>
<ul>
<li>Bold your favorites from each category so they're easy to spot on your list</li>
<li>Choose 2-3 items from each skin benefit group rather than overwhelming yourself</li>
<li>Rotate seasonal options to keep meals interesting and affordable</li>
</ul>
The goal isn't to eat perfectly—it's to consistently nourish your skin with foods that make you feel good inside and out.

How to Build a Clear Skin Grocery List You'll Actually Use

You don't need to blow up your entire shopping routine, but knowing where to hunt down the good stuff can save you serious time and frustration. Here's where we actually go when we need to restock our skin-supporting arsenal:
<h3>For the Fancy Organic Stuff</h3>
<a href="https://go.skimresources.com/?id=44078X1168413&xs=1&url=https%3A%2F%2Fthrivemarket.com%2Fhow-it-works" target="_blank"><ins>Thrive Market</ins></a> is our secret weapon for bulk organic basics—chia seeds, turmeric, collagen powders, all that jazz. They also do these pre-curated wellness bundles if you want someone else to do the thinking for anti-inflammatory goals.
Whole Foods obviously has the best produce section, plus grass-fed everything and those clean supplements that don't have weird fillers. Bonus: they run decent sales on skin foods pretty regularly.

How to Save on Clear Skin Groceries and Vitamins

For good or bad, your skin is a reflection of the life you're living. Aside from the lucky few who can get away with anything, a drab diet equals drab skin. Luckily, delicious, satisfying foods that are good for you on all levels also make your skin sing. Shop our easy-to-reference tips and lists above to create your own glow-up grocery list or skip straight to the easy part with a skin-supportive recipe or meal plan.
Embracing the best foods to eat for clear skin isn't about restriction or deprivation. It's about nourishing and supporting skin from within to shine like never before.

The Final Word on Eating for Clear Skin

Foods we love don't always love our skin. That's because things like gut health and hydration levels can show up on our face. Diet plays a big—yet often ignored—role in things like inflammation, hydration, and acne. In fact, some foods truly go to bat for our skin by fighting free radicals and helping regrow collagen that's the scaffolding of our skin's plump, youthful appearance. While many of us may be investing time and money into exhaustive skincare routines, we won't reach our true "glow" potential if we ignore nutrition. Luckily, so many yummy, nourishing foods we all love also happen to be the top foods for clear skin.
In this post, Rank &amp; Style uses expert-backed insights and curated picks from years of hunting down the best skin tricks of the trade to provide the ultimate grocery list for gorgeous skin—with tips about what to skip to finally get tamed, content skin. From shoppable meal kits to supplements that bring the glow, we're dropping all of our picks for the ultimate skin-loving grocery list, skincare lovers can eat up.
<h2>Why Your Diet Matters for Clear Skin</h2>
While we don't think there should be hysteria about forbidden foods, we will say that a little moderation goes a long way in avoiding skin triggers in your diet. Many different foods actually trigger inflammatory responses, affect oil production, or have a drying effect that strips our skin's cells of hydration—while others are skin-soothing anti-acne foods.
<h3>Why Your Digestive Health Shows Up on Your Face&nbsp;</h3>
There's also a gut-skin connection that we're only now just beginning to understand. Researchers have been digging into this connection for years now, and the findings are pretty solid. They've dubbed it the gut-skin axis—sounds fancy, but it's basically about how these two systems talk to each other. Here's what's happening: when your gut bacteria is thriving, it gets way better at pulling out all the good stuff from your food—those nutrients and vitamins your skin actually needs to look good.
Makes total sense if you think about it. Your skin is the one organ that's on display 24/7, so naturally it's going to broadcast whatever's going down internally.
This <a href="https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7916842/" target="_blank">big study from 2021</a> that came out of the National Library of Medicine really drove the point home. Turns out, when your gut microbiome goes haywire, it throws your immune system off balance too. And that domino effect? It can kick off a whole mess of skin problems—eczema flare-ups, psoriasis patches, stubborn acne, scalp issues, even scarier stuff like skin cancer in some cases.
What dermatologists have been seeing in their offices for decades finally has the research to back it up. Your digestive health and your complexion are way more linked than anyone gave them credit for.
<h3>The Real Story Behind Food and Breakouts</h3>
But wait, there's more. Diet messes with your hormones too, and if you've been battling breakouts since forever, this is probably the missing piece of your puzzle. Remember getting lectured as a teenager about how greasy food and chocolate would wreck your face? Well, turns out your parents weren't completely off base.
Recent research is validating some of that old-school wisdom, sort of. This <a href="https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9311318/" target="_blank">massive study in JAMA Dermatology</a> tracked 24,000 adults and found something interesting: people who went heavy on high-fat foods—we're talking dairy, red meat, the works—plus lots of sugary stuff had way higher rates of acne. Plot twist though: chocolate didn't show up as a specific culprit.

Eat Your Way to Clearer Skin With These Expert-Backed Tips

The Clear Skin Grocery List: 20+ Foods for a Glowing Complexion Year-Round

Clark's Botanicals Retinol Rescue Overnight Cream

Unlike traditional retinol formulas that can leave skin red or irritated, this patented time-release blend works its magic while you sleep, delivering all the benefits (refined texture, boosted collagen, and brighter tone) without the dreaded flakiness. Encapsulated vitamin C helps combat dullness, hyaluronic acid hydrates the skin, and colloidal oatmeal soothes away post-sun redness. The result? You wake up to plumper, smoother, lit-from-within skin that’s ready for another day in the sun (with SPF, of course).

Why It's Oprah's Favorite

Long days at the beach, balmy evening walks, and endless iced coffee runs—summer’s golden glow is everything. But let’s be real: all that sun, salt, and sunscreen can leave skin feeling parched, tight, and in need of some TLC. That’s where <a href="https://go.linkby.com/NUWHFDDN" target="_blank">Clark’s Botanicals’ Retinol Rescue Overnight Cream</a> comes in—aka the dermatologist-recommended, Vogue- and Oprah-approved night cream that’s about to be your new skincare obsession.

Cushionaire Lane Cork Footbed Sandals

Quince Nappa Leather Double Buckle Slide

Project Cloud 100% Genuine Leather Cork Footbed Sandals

Arizona Jean Co Fireside Footbed Sandals

The most recognizable and widely loved Birkenstock style, the Arizona features two wide straps, adjustable buckles, and a signature contoured footbed. Since launching in 1973, many consider it one of the <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-slide-sandals" target="_self"><ins>best slide sandals</ins></a> ever. However, TikTok fashion hounds who don't want to pay $100+ for a pair have cracked the code with hauls of dupes under $50.
With 4,000+ 5-star reviews on Cushionaire, the CUSHIONAIRE Lane Cork Footbed Sandals offer a comfortable fit right out of the box. Reviewers who've trekked around in them share that they hold up beautifully. Our own R&amp;S score is a very enthusiastic 4.7 out of 5.
We consider this shoe the best Birkenstock Arizona dupe for anyone with a complicated shoe size because it comes in wide width and half sizes. You can also choose from 13 colors that are popular among today's <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/collections/trending-sandals" target="_self"><ins>trending buckle sandals</ins></a>.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Best Birkenstock Arizona Sandal Dupe

Quince Water Repellent Suede Clog Mule

Universal Thread Betsy Clog Mule Flats

Arizona Jean Co Riv Closed Toe Clogs

Blowfish Malibu Sienna Clog

One of our favorite '90s-era trends, this closed-toe wonder is having a resurgence with the rise of <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/collections/trending-clogs-shoes" target="_self"><ins>trending clog shoes</ins></a> in general. The Boston is a cozy, transitional style that's perfect for those fall and winter weeks before the boots need to come out.
After kicking around in a few styles, we picked the Water Repellent Suede Clog Mule from <a href="https://goto.quince.com/VxNLLM" target="_blank"><ins>Quince</ins></a> as our Birkenstock Boston dupe for its incredible comfort and durability. In our opinion, there's virtually no difference between this Birkenstock clogs dupe and the real thing aside from the fact that these comfy fakes are about half the price. Quince's pair even uses the same shape and high-quality materials. The leather comes from an eco-minded tannery. And to top it all off, you can take <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/codes/95767000?pt=article" target="_self"><ins>$30 off your first order</ins></a> when you join their email list.
Having worn actual Boston clogs before, we did note that Quince's Suede Clog Mule runs slightly larger with no option for half sizes. Between the amazing feel and fit and three neutral colors that go with everything, we give these clogs a solid 4.85 out of 5.

Project Cloud 100% Genuine Leather Sandals

Madden Girl Banner Footbed Sandal

Alpine Swiss Heidi Slide Sandals

Madden Girl Women's Brookk Footbed Sandals

If you're like a lot of younger fashion followers, you may have only learned that Birkenstock does a single-strap sandal variation of the Arizona called the Madrid when the Project Cloud viral dupe blew up. Like the true Madrid, these faux Birkenstock sandals are sleek, minimalist single-strap slides that are perfect for everyday wear.
Our personal impression of the Project Cloud Ibiza Birkenstock dupe is that we can barely tell the difference. We love that the substantial-feeling molded cork beds create a very stable, custom fit while still remaining very lightweight. We also love the nine colors, ranging from neutral to bold. A touch we didn't see coming is that the metal strap buckles come in different hues (gold and silver). These anti-slip, easy-to-live-in dupes earn a 4.3 out of 5 from us.

We couldn't turn down an opportunity to try out a Birkenstock sandals dupe with a toe loop. Perfect for casual summer outfits or vacation wardrobes when you want a little extra foot security, the real Mayari sandal is beloved for its open design and strappy crisscross toe loop. After seeing that the CUSHIONAIRE Women's Luna Cork Footbed Sandal With +Comfort had 4.5 out of 5 stars at Walmart, we knew we had to try these knockoff Birkenstocks. While most Walmart reviewers praise the cute style, great price, and good heel support, we found it impressive that someone from a podiatry office in the review section shared that this is the type of sandal they recommend to patients in real life.
We actually rank the CUSHIONAIRE Luna a little higher than Walmart's average because of the contoured footbeds and adjustable straps that make keeping these shoes on your feet easy without lifting your heels as you walk. With vegan suede, half sizes, wide widths, and more than 20 color options, Luna fully earns our 4.85 rating.

Cushionaire Leah Cork Footbed Thong Sandals

Dream Pairs Arch Support Thong Sandals

SheIn Unisex Buckle Cork Sandals

Vionic Emma Toe Post Sandal

Many regard the Gizeh as one of the only thong-style sandals out there that doesn't torture your big toe's webbing. The Gizeh is a sleek, iconic style that converts to casual wear, beach days, or lightly formal summer looks. They rank among our <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-sandals-for-wide-feet" target="_self"><ins>best sandals for wide feet</ins></a> that look dainty under a sundress.
We found an incredible Birkenstock sandals dupe available in 12+ earthy colors. The Leah Cork Footbed Thong Sandal has gone viral with 600+ 5-star reviews on Cushionaire. The Leah features a fully cushioned and contoured leather insole, super-soft vegan upper, flexible cork bottom with premium traction, and adjustable straps that all make for happy trekking. This dupe also comes in wide widths and uses sizing similar to Birkenstocks.
"I have Birks and these are every bit as comfortable," shares Lauren Yates (verified reviewer). The R&amp;S team gives the Leah thong sandals 4.35 out of 5 stars.

Shade & Shore Neida EVA Two Band Footbed Slide Sandals

No Boundaries Two Buckle EVA Slide Sandals

Mix No. 6 Sianey Slide Sandal

Mixit Two Strap Sandals

We had to wrap up our list of the best Birkenstock dupes with a splashy, playful, and sporty option, perfect for pool days, beach trips, or everyday errands. While most people think of Birkenstock’s textured sandals first, the brand also offers waterproof EVA slides made with ethylene vinyl acetate for a lightweight, flexible fit packed with cushioning and footbed support.
We ran to fill our cart after finding out that Target sells a $10 EVA dupe in six colors (check out that hot pink). The Women's Neida EVA Two Band Footbed Slide Sandals - Shade &amp; Shore™ offer the same protected footbed and lightweight design as the original. Among Target shoppers who've bought them, 81% say they recommend them. They also have 4.5 out of 5 stars on the Target website based on nearly 8,000 reviews.
"I have walked over 20k steps in these, day after day, all over the world, and while my friends had blisters with their name-brand shoes, my feet were astoundingly comfortable," shares a Target reviewer named Ellie.&nbsp;
Our advice is to size down if you're between sizes because these slides run a little large. Consider snagging a few different colors with this <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/deals/target-promo-code" target="_self"><ins>Target promo code</ins></a>.&nbsp;

Amazon has become the go-to destination for Birkenstock-inspired sandals that deliver serious comfort without the premium price tag. We've tracked down the best Amazon alternatives for each of these iconic Birkenstock styles, so you can get that signature look no matter which silhouette speaks to you.
<h3>For Arizona Sandal Lovers&nbsp;</h3>
The ODOLY Women's Cork Footbed Sandals nail the classic two-strap look with adjustable buckles and a contoured footbed that Amazon shoppers say provides "impressive arch support and surprisingly comfortable fit straight out of the box." But we couldn’t pick just one lookalike for these Birkenstock staples. The Project Cloud Comfortable Essentials Santorini offers a slightly more streamlined take that's perfect for those who want the Arizona vibe with a modern twist.
<h3>For Mayari Sandal Fans</h3>
FITORY's Sandals with Footbed Comfort Support bring that beloved toe-loop design to Amazon shoppers who consistently praise their "soft sole" and "great arch support." Reviewers love that these feel "just like the real thing" while delivering impressive durability for daily wear.
<h3>For Boston Clog Enthusiasts&nbsp;</h3>
The Litfun Genuine Footbed Leather Comfort clogs capture that cozy closed-toe aesthetic with premium materials that Amazon buyers say rival much more expensive alternatives. These have become a favorite among shoppers looking for transitional footwear that works from summer into fall.

Best Birkenstock Lookalikes on Amazon

Love the comfort and style of <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-birkenstock-inspired-sandals-2015" target="_self">Birkenstocks</a> but not the price tag? You're not alone. Since their 1963 debut, these iconic sandals have captured hearts across generations—from free-love enthusiasts to grunge devotees to today's minimalist fashion lovers. Their unmatched comfort and versatile design make them a wardrobe staple, but at $100+ per pair, they're not always budget-friendly.
That's where Birkenstock dupes come in. Using our trusty algorithm, we tracked down affordable alternatives that deliver the same comfort, support, and effortless style without breaking the bank. Whether you're looking for classic two-strap sandals or trendy platform styles, we've found budget-conscious options that prove you don't need to spend a fortune for happy feet.&nbsp;
<h2>How to Choose the Right Birkenstock Dupe</h2>
Keep in mind that the stripped-down, earthy look of Birkenstocks isn't just for show. Birkenstock designed the originals with ergonomics and arch support in mind.&nbsp;
Here are our tips for shopping for ouch-free shoes like Birkenstocks:
<ol>
<li>Avoid thin soles! With Birkenstock being famous for producing stylish flats, make sure a Birkenstock look-alike has actual built-in arch support in the footbed that keeps the bottoms of your feet from hard contact with the pavement. If you have sensitive arches, look for a soft footbed with an extra layer of cushioning.</li>
<li>When shopping for sandals for wide feet, look for styles that don't fully enclose the tops or sides of your feet. Thong-style and T-strap shoes are best for wider feet. Look for brands that offer wide (W) widths.</li>
<li>For narrow feet, styles with straps and buckles that allow for extra customization are great. Look for brands offering narrow (N) widths.</li>
<li>Look for natural, hypoallergenic materials. One of the reasons why real Birkenstocks are so comfortable and durable is their materials. For example, Birkenstock uses real unsplit leather for uppers and real lambskin for lining.</li>
</ol>
<h2>How We Find the Best Birkenstock Dupes</h2>
In our quest to find the absolute best Birkenstock duplicate for our readers, the Rank &amp; Style team used our data-backed algorithm to analyze reviews, bestseller lists, ratings, and social media buzz to pinpoint pairs to try for ourselves. We designed our ranking to help you find worthy Birkenstock dupes with a streamlined shopping experience.

Beis 'The Weekender'

Calpak Weekender Duffel

Quince Small Carry-On Suitcase

A great bag is the first item to check off on any weekend trip packing list. For us, the three reigning champions are the trusty carry-on bag, weekender duffel, and convertible tote.
A carry-on bag is great when jetting off for the weekend. When flying on the cheap, a carry-on bag can replace luggage if you're just packing a swimsuit, sandals, and a few sundresses. However, you may want to skip the carry-on if your airline charges for it because adding another suitcase is sometimes just a few dollars more. A small suitcase-style carry-on bag is great when traveling with formal wear for a special occasion or clothes that need structured storage to prevent wrinkling.
We love the roominess and ergonomic carrying of a big weekender duffel. They're great for car trips because you can store them in a trunk or back seat easily. However, weekender duffels can be rough if you need to keep a dress from getting wrinkled.
If you don't know, a convertible tote is a classic one-strap bag that converts to a backpack. The compact size makes them TSA-friendly and easy to carry through the airport. Depending on the style, you can often use a convertible duffel in place of a backpack while trekking around.
<h3>What Size Bag Do You Really Need?</h3>
For luggage-style carry-on bags, the standard size limit for most airlines is 22 x 14 x 9 inches with wheels and handles included. A few airlines like Frontier and Breeze actually have 35-pound limits on top of restrictions for dimensions. If you're doing a duffel, smaller to midsized bags that are 30 liters to 50 liters are perfect for one to two days. For a three-day to four-day trip, bumping up to 60 to 70 liters gives you lots of real estate inside your bag.
We personally like duffels for car travel because you can get a roomy bag without worrying about its dimensions or shape. For carry-ons, we like a hard-shell carry-on that's compact while still protecting your stuff.

How to Choose Your Weekend Trip Bag

When it comes to concise—yet complete—packing for a weekend getaway, we've got it in the bag. Yes, you can actually pack everything you need without lugging along an overstuffed suitcase that won't cut the mustard with your airline or hogging all the luggage space in the trunk of your road-trip vehicle. As seasoned travelers who also happen to be unapologetic fashion hounds, we've perfected the art of the weekend packing list for fresh, stylish looks without carrying your whole closet on your back. Read along for all of our best packing tips, style advice that gives your clothes more mileage, and curated lists of our must-have looks on the road.

<h2>Why a Weekend Getaway Packing List Matters</h2>
It's impossible to leave the mental clutter of life behind when we're dragging all of our "stuff" with us on weekend getaways. Efficient packing lets us enjoy the best of our wardrobe for the right time and place. In addition to not hogging trunk space or racking up airline fees, a tight weekend getaway packing list gives us the mental freedom to live in the moment—without any extra decisions about what to wear once we're at our destination.
