Summer Style That Sizzles
Those hot summer days are quickly approaching and some of the season’s biggest trends have hit the stores. From rocker chic to glamour girl, you can mix and match these pieces to create a look all your own.
Here are four must-have items every budget fashionista should own:
Distressed Jeans
You can’t read a celebrity gossip or fashion blog these days without seeing one of Hollywood’s finest stylin’ in distressed jeans. Stars like Monica and Rihanna have helped make this the “it” jean of the moment.
Dressed up or down,when you put these on your style screams now. And if you can’t afford to buy a new pair, check out this step-by-step tutorial on how to make your own.
Bold Accessories
For the last few seasons, when it comes to accessories “bigger is better” has been a common theme — and this summer is no different.
If you’re looking to put a new spin on accesorizing your look, play around with texture.
From intricate beading to fabrics to crystals, going with the unusual will help up your style factor.
The Mini-Dress
Perfect for a night out, the mini-dress shows off a great pair of legs.
And besides that’s why you’ve been busting your butt in the gym all winter and spring long, right ladies?
In structured denim, flowy silk and body hugging poly-blend fabrics, you can find these go-to party dresses in a variety of styles.
Platform Sandals
What else better to pair your mini-dress or skinny jeans with than some attention-grabbing footwear.
And since this season’s color palette ranges from bright to brighter, try a pair of platform sandals in a vibrant hue with a more toned down outfit. Going bold is great, but you don’t want to fall victim to trend overload.

Forever21 has a great stuff for cheaper prices too. Can’t imagine that dangle earrings being barely 8 bucks! What a steal!
