the uniform – summer edition

Blazer, tee, skinnies, heels — Lather, rinse, repeat….

With summer upon us, I must start making changes to my usual attire. I’ll begin by trading out my heavy blazer for ones made out of cotton or linen.  Then maybe instead of skinnies, I’ll add a dress or skirt to the mix.

Here are some of the summer blazers I have my eye on…

From the top and clockwise – Rory Beca ‘Sofia’ linen jacket, Line & Dot peaches and cream blazer, ASOS linen workwear blazer, Gibson Linen One-Button Blazer


my cheap thrill – lights and brights

Jewelry is always an instant outfit update for me.  What’s even better is when a $20 necklace can make your old ensemble look expensive and new again.

Here are some cheap thrills with light and bright jewels.

Lights –  Kendra Scott Dani Ring $68,  Blu Bijoux White Faux Agate Cuff $32, Sabine piano key necklace $24

Brights –  Panacea circle earrings $24 ASOS Pack of Six Enamel Zig Zag Rings $18


my cheap thrill – striped dress edition

To go along with the striped theme of the day, I had to do a post about this little dress.  It’s soooo cute and soooo inexpensive, it should fit everyone’s taste and budget.  Make it funky with a stack of spiked bracelets.  Make it sweet with bowed heels.  The styling options are endless!
