Dressing Up Budget-Friendly Buys

Summer is wrapping up and I’ll be honest I’m starting to crave fall clothing. Not necessarily the cooler weather but I could definitely go for some sweaters and layered looks. A little premature? Probably. 😉

In the meantime, I’m embracing some of my favorite budget-friendly pieces that I’ll be layering later. That’s where this bodysuit comes in. If you’re following along on Instagram, you’ve likely seen me style this bodysuit in countless ways. But here we are with an entire blog post dedicated to it because I love it that much. And you will too.

I know I’ve spent some time harping on how much I love to dress up affordable pieces by pairing them with thoughtful higher end accessories. With this particular outfit, I saved on the bodysuit, jeans and denim jacket – they’re all under $50! You can make this look appear more expensive just by adding some investment pieces.

That’s why I will always stand behind my previous statement: save on trends or seasonal pieces and be willing to spend a little more on your bags and shoes.
