Affordable by Amanda

it’s still summer in florida

September 19, 2014

Top: American Eagle top (old 2012) // Shorts: Forever 21 (June sale) // 
Boutique necklace // Shoes: Target sandals //
Nails: Revlon “Vixen” // Bag: Michael Kors wristlet (similar) //

Today’s outfit was all about these amazing shorts. I bought these blue embroidered shorts from the huge Forever 21 sale back in June..they were roughly $10 and I got them an additional 30% off! Make sure to ask the employees when the sale items will be additionally marked down so you can save even more. You can see the details in the shorts in an up close picture above. I wanted to draw attention to them so I kept the rest of my outfit clean by adding a white strapless ruffle top and metallic flats. Luckily I can still wear my favorite sandals like these that I have mentioned here in previous looks!

Although I see everyone getting ready to wear their leggings and sweaters, it is still 95 degrees outside in Florida! As much as I want to participate, I am going to hold off on my fall wardrobe because I do not want to sweat all day. I can wear the last of my summer outfits in these next few weeks until mid-October when the weather cools off. 

This necklace I am wearing is from Patchington, a store my Mom loves. It was on super sale and only around $12 (from $60!). I also have my Michael Kors wristlet (similar to this one) that I talked about in this blog post the other day. I carry that bag around in my larger Vera Bradley backpack.

Are you wearing the last of your summer clothes this week? Let me know in the comments section below! I love reading your comments. Ask me anything! I love answering style, bargain hunting, sale finding, and fashion related questions.

    You look amazing! I'll probably be getting a few more wears out of summer things as it's been really warm but I'm sure that's all going downhill soon.

    Super cute! I love your shorts and plus you got it on sale! I still get to wear my summer clothes all year round since I live in Hawai'i although I securely wish I can layer up for the colder weather!
