Summer is approaching, which means all of us have the unbeatable urge to shop new clothes and enrich our existing wardrobe! I’ll admit it; as a former shopaholic (I am still working on it) I always thought this was a necessary part of the changing seasons. But experience (and my low budget in times of financial crisis) has taught me that you don’t need to spend a fortune on clothes to make yourself more stylish. The trick is to find some great value basic items that you can wear in a variety of ways, and get a lot of use out of.
I was browsing through the Karmaloop site the other day, and keeping all that in mind, I said to myself, “Less is more! Keep it to together, and do not spend much!” And guess what? I actually took my own advice, and didn’t throw away all of my hard-earned cash! So, proudly, I am presenting you with the timeless, comfy, elegant and quite affordable choices that would suit just about every young, modern girl.
Personally, I am the girl that loves a more relaxed, casual style. Truthfully, don’t we all love to wear comfortable, yet playful apparel for all occasions? If your answer is yes, then you’ll understand why I chose this cute open shoulder top featuring a geometrical pattern. It is loose-fitting and easy to wear every day. Plus, you don’t need to wear any jewelry because it is already an impressive piece by itself.
The best part about this next item I picked up, these super seductive skinny jeans, is that they make my legs look AMAZING! They are also surprisingly comfortable since they are so stretchy, and the high waist enhances my curves beautifully – to put it simply, these jeans make me feel irresistible!
Seriously, this site has everything. I found these all-time classic Converse sneakers that I simply couldn’t resist; they were yelling my name, so, naturally, I bought them! White is always a great choice for the summer, and you can wear these casual sneakers with both athletic clothes, or with an aerial flounce short dress for a more casual-chic appearance. I put them on, and instantly felt like I was walking on the clouds…
I didn’t stop there – I also picked up this fashionable leather jacket which I immediately fell in love with! The jacket features a relaxed fit, which is super on-trend right now, and it is perfect to wear on those chilly summer nights, making it a great addition to your summer wardrobe. Both chic and edgy, this jacket is a win-win! You can throw it on top of a white tee, denim cut-offs and a pair of Converse, or over a flounce dress during a breezy night. I really love this apricot/salmon color because it is both neutral and girly, so it goes with just about anything you already have in your closet.
If you’re getting ready for a night out, then you want to look your best, and you can do that with these next pieces I picked up. This Coachella teal dress features an off-the-shoulder design, and is so pretty and romantic. To make it more party/night-out appropriate, you can opt for a pair of black heeled sandals like this pair that I also found on the site. Don’t let the height on these scare you – they are really comfortable because of their thick platform, which makes them a perfect pick even if you’re a high heel newbie. Their boho-chic style is again a global trend (trust me!), and you won’t want to take them off after all of the compliments you will inevitably be receiving.
If you feel good in your clothes, you become invincible, and outfits like these will surely make you feel like a million bucks! And girls, remember… you don’t need to buy lots of clothes, you just have to find ways to make smart combinations that work for you and your budget!
