8 Deal Sites That Will Save Your Wallet And Your Life
I am a sucker for sample sale sites. 60% of the time I will buy the product/clothing/shoe/meal/whatever regardless of whether or not I need it, just because it is “on sale.”
4 Must Have Outfits For The 4th Of July
It’s the 4th of July, and all you can think about is the partying, the sun and the fireworks! It’s about that time to head out to that huuuuge party, I mean everyone will be there, and all you have to do is get dressed!

Versatile Style: Gentle Fawn Wilderness Dress
My summer thus far has been filled with backyard BBQs, nights out with girls, day-trips and weekends on the lake. Although shorts and tank tops cut it for all these events, sometimes I just want to be girly and wear a casual, summery dress. Cue the Gentle Fawn Wilderness Dress!
Budget Stylista: Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is Heeeere!
July for me brings a different kind of excitement. An excitement in the form of warm colors in chestnuts, cognacs and browns, wools and greys… boots and coats, sweaters and scarves paired with slashed prices…well there really is no containing my excitement for all of it! For me, July is all about the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.
8 Under $20: Feathers
Feathers have always been huge in the world of fashion — and in the last few seasons, they’ve seen an especially big surge. While in the past, feathers were a glamorous touch added to hats and the collars of jackets, these days the feathers on clothing and accessories have a more bohemian, earthy feel.
Celebrity Chic on the Cheap: Kelly Osbourne is Breezy and Beautiful
So, her rock star father gets an MTV reality show where she gets to be a bratty, gothy, embarrassing teenager in front of millions of people, falls into oblivion after the show is cancelled, stays there for a few years, loses weight, learns how to apply makeup, goes on Dancing with the Stars…and is suddenly a red carpet staple?
Budget Stylista: Get Bright With Yo Bad Self
This spring is all about bright bottoms, and mixing and matching big, bold colors. I love pairing two complementary colors together – think bright blue and orange, or pink and green. It just makes everything more exciting.

From CollegeFashion: 4 Ways to Wear Stripes This Season
Stripes can be intimidating. They’re bold, they’re brazen and they can be a little difficult to wear. Some people fear that horizontal stripes make you look wider (totally not true!!) and they can be a little too bold for the wallflowers among us. So it’s understandable that some would be hesitant about them.
Wardrobe Wish List: AE Skinny Braided Waist Belt
The quintessential waist belt was not created to hold anything up. It doesn’t fit into loops, it offers no form of support, it’s not durable and it doesn’t save the world from your plumber’s crack. So what does this basic wardrobe staple do for you?
Budget Stylista: Skip The Jeans and Opt for a Denim Dress
Look, I love the denim/chambray shirt as much as the next person who inhales everything the fashion magazines offer up, but sometimes I feel a little bit like one of the characters from Hey Dude when I try to pull it off with a pair of jeans.
Budget Stylista: Bring on the Boots
hate to admit it but fall is almost here. Major tear. But while I’m not excited for midterms, wool coats, shivering on my walk to class and being too cold to drink iced coffee, I am excited for boots (and really excited for Pumpkin Spice Lattes).
Budget Stylista: It’s So Easy Being Green!
Ah green. The color of trees. And money.
And really, really cute clothes.

Budget Stylista: The Best Pants of All Time
I’m a pretty big fan of the slouchy/relaxed pants.
Pants with elastic waistbands considered trendy? Why on EARTH would any of us ever complain? We can now wear pants that hide how much pizza we’ve actually eaten, we won’t have to unbutton them under the table and people (mainly girls) will tell us we look cute.
