Spring is finally here, but if you've yet to start prepping your closet, you might want to start with Target's spring fashion offerings for 2024. That's right, the retailer can be counted on for way more than just fabulous home decor this season. Not only is there a new resort-ready collection (brought to you by Future Collective with Jenny K. Lopez) available for you to shop right this minute, but your favorite Target brands—like A New Day and Universal Thread—have also come out with a bunch of fresh finds fit for the warmer weather. The best part? You can score some of the best pieces for less than $50!

So if we were you, we wouldn't go another day without this maxi sundress (was $40, now $32), which looks just as beautiful and flowy as any other high-end option, or this linen shift dress (was $20, now $16) that we're eyeing in every color. Need. Need some new white denim for the season? Snag these high-rise ecru jeans ($40) that you can wear on repeat—not that they'll look like it. We can keep going, but here's the bottom line: Whether or not you're on a budget, Target's spring styles are so snazzy and so affordable, they're absolutely worth a shopping spree. Get started with these seven under-$50 gems below.

1. A New Day Maxi Sundress

A New Day

Remember the $85 SNDYS Tahlia dress that PureWow Associate Commerce Editor Stephanie Meraz raved about in a PureWow100 review last summer? Well, you can think of this lightweight taffeta frock as its sophisticated (and more affordable) older sister this spring. From its flowy tiered skirt and keyhole smocked back to its deep V-neckline, its poised for warm weather vacays and events. It even has pockets and adjustable straps, so you can achieve a perfect fit and go bag-free.

2. A New Day Straight Ankle Chino Pants

A New Day

Forget boring khakis and go for these cool cropped chinos. They're crafted from twill fabric, so we can see why buyers comment on their comfy, soft and stretchy feel. But there's a lot more to love here, including the straight leg silhouette, double-stitched seam and stash pockets that are always nice to have. But here's why one buyer is obsessed: "They’re stretchy but still look professional and don’t emphasize my PCOS belly...I’m looking forward to integrating them into my work wardrobe!" Um, same.

3. A New Day Button-Down Shirt

A New Day

This button-down shirt will take you from spring to summer, from the pool to dinner and from the office to happy hour. No, seriously, that's how versatile it is, and you don't just have to take our word for it. One reviewer shares, "[I] love the feel of fabric, [it's] perfect for running errands, [and] can easily [be] dressed up or down." You can thank its lightweight cotton material, collared neckline and full button placket, though the mid-length and side vents also don't go unnoticed, making it just a tad more stylish and relaxed than your other classic button-downs.

4. A New Day Linen Shift Dress

A New Day

If you're a sucker for a retro shift dress that shows off your arms and legs with a roomy A-line shape, just go ahead and add this linen style to your cart. The classy mini may have a simple silhouette, but its thicker canvas fabric gives it an appropriately elevated vibe for work and last-minute dates. Needless to say, we're snagging the mod-inspired dress (which looks like it came straight out of the '60s) in as many colors as we can since it's only under $20. Yeah, we can't believe it either.

5. Future Collective with Jenny K. Lopez Ecru Jeans

Future Collective with Jenny K. Lopez Cream

We don't think any spring capsule wardrobe is complete without a pair of white '90s jeans, so we totally support you scooping these high-rises up for just $40. The style was dreamed up in a collab between Future Collective and Jenny Lopez (a Miami-based model turned fashion influencer), and let's just say with all the features that make cool jeans, well, cool, like a raw-edge hem and wide-leg silhouette, they won't stay in stock for long.

6. A New Day Tank Top

A New Day

If there's any tank top we won't mind living in this spring and summer, it's this one right here. And no need to ask us why—we'll just tell you that we're obsessed with the chic slim fit, high neckline and cotton-blend fabric that should offer just the right amount of stretch. Just to note, one buyer sized down, and it was perfect, so choose accordingly. Don't wait too long, though, because this stylish staple is set to fly off the shelves.

7. A New Day Women's Short Sleeve Midi Shirtdress

A New Day

What's our secret to effortless spring dressing? That would be shirtdresses, of course, aka the most versatile article of clothing in our closets. So you can bet we're scooping up this one for just $16. Aside from the fact that one reviewer said it's their favorite recent purchase, its jersey fabric is reportedly as lightweight, soft and breezy as it looks. "It is a classic, simple silhouette that's flattering and work appropriate," one adds. So, the dress is petite-approved, fashionable and functional? Enough said—into our cart (and yours) it goes.
