Aurora Seamless High Neck V-Back Tank, $25 (was $55) at Athleta

This "cute and comfortable" top acts as both a sports bra and a casual, fitted tank, according to reviewers. It's a perfect "flattering" basic that can be styled in tons of different ways. We'd even bet that with the right bottoms, you can dress it up for fancier occasions.

Breezy Muscle Tank, $28 (was $44) at Athleta

Shoppers say that this loose tank is built "for whatever your day brings." The cropped length and extra lightweight material is perfect for hot summer days. This is another great simple staple that we like having on constant rotation.

Elation V-Neck Longline Bra, From $30 (was $54) at Athleta

If you're looking for a comfortable and supportive sports bra, this is one of the best according to reviewers. It's made from a "buttery soft" material and helps shoppers "feel confident" when they work out. You can also just as easily wear it as a top with high-waisted bottoms thanks to its longline cut.

Mesh Racer Run Mid Rise 4 Short, From $20 (was $49) at Athleta

These lightweight, sporty shorts have gained over 8,000 five-star ratings from shoppers who can't get enough of them. They're "in love" with the shorts and say that they're comparable to more expensive options from high-end brands, which makes this deal that much sweeter.

Brooklyn Mid Rise Short, $45 (was $59) at Athleta

Shoppers say that these shorts immediately became a favorite thanks to their "comfortable and light" feel. They're comfy, stretchy, but have a stylish look to them at the same time, making them ideal for summer wear.

Brooklyn Heights High Rise Skort, From $50 (was $69) at Athleta

We're thrilled that skorts have made a major comeback this summer, and we have this version on our sights. The A-line cut and high-waist fit creates a beautiful silhouette that looks great on virtually everyone, and shoppers agree that the design is "perfect."

Endless High Rise Pant, $65 (was $109) at Athleta

When we saw these pants we added them to our carts in a matter of seconds. They have a very professional look, but according to shoppers feel just as comfortable as a pair of leggings or sweats. You can team them with a cropped tank for workouts, with simple tees for casual days, or with a button-down for the office.

Studio Wide Leg Pant, $45 (was $79) at Athleta

Reviewers say that these pants are "perfect" for traveling or any other type of activity when you want to feel extra comfortable. They're made from a "lightweight" modal fabric that's super soft, and the wide legs provide the ultimate relaxed vibe.

Retreat Linen High Rise Jogger, $65 (was $79) at Athleta

We didn't expect to find linen pieces in this sale, but were pleasantly surprised when we stumbled upon these joggers. Linen is a top-tier material to wear in the summer because of how lightweight and breathable it is, and we have no doubt that these pants share those features.

Salutation Stash High Rise 5 Short, From $30 (was $69) at Athleta

Shoppers describe these biker shorts as a "perfect athleisure" staple, and we completely agree. They're great for workouts, but we also love pairing leggings like these with loose tanks and t-shirts if we're planning on a busy day of running errands.
