Honestly, I don't even want to talk about how much money I've been spending lately. For some naive reason, I thought I'd be saving my funds while staying at home, but that certainly has not been the case. Postmating food, ordering décor for my apartment, and renting movie after movie has not put my bank account in the best position.
So it probably comes as no surprise that I’ve been trying to take it easy with my shopping budget, hitting up places like Forever 21, where I know I won’t have to spend an entire paycheck for a few solid basics. I’m telling you, I’ve stocked my cart with everything from denim and cardigans to booties, all with under-$35 price tags. Keep scrolling to see for yourself.
I actually have to make a conscious effort to not wear turtlenecks every single day when the weather gets cold.
I recommend mock croc to anyone who is trying to look chic on a budget.
I literally can't stop buying cardigans.
A matching set is a must for every season, but especially in the fall.
Here are the matching pants. You're welcome.
I love anything with a collar these days.
Black skinny jeans are a no-brainer for every fall wardrobe.
Chunky! Boots! Always!
The cutest color.
I'm that person who hates having to wear jackets over things, but this corduroy number is making me change my mind.
Yes, you read that product name correctly. This dress does, indeed, come with a matching face mask.
The necklace every fashion girl is obsessed with, and it's only $6.
I think my tan blazer was my most-worn item last year, so I'm excited to bring a new one out.
Distressed jeans are my bread and butter.
Basic white tee but give it some flare.
Remember what I said about mock croc?
