Daily Steal: White Denim Jackets under $50

Maternity

My Favorite

UNDER $25
UNDER $50

I love the versatility of white denim jackets in Spring. They cheer up Winter colors, provide Spring-appropriate cover up and dress down formal pieces to give them a life under daylight. However, I'm not a fond of spending a lot on white denim since I wash them a lot. Loads of washing changes the color a bit even when bleached so I change them yearly or every other year. I don't see the point in investing in a denim jacket that I won't have in two years.



If you're like me, you will love these options. I'm up for one this year. I love the look of the leftmost bottom one and will sure check it out soon.

Daily Steal: Dressy Rompers under $20

Rompers are definitely one of this years fashion trends. Most of the fashion brands have a few in their Spring/Summer collections, but no need to break the bank for one.

 

My favorite way to style romper is with white tank tops inside, high heeled sandals and big jewelry.  It is a simple wardrobe piece that could look dressy with small touches. I also like the look as a cover-up option on my swimsuit to go to the beach,  pool, etc.


Do you like rompers? Do you plan to wear it this season?

Daily Steal: White Tunics on Sale under $25

I was finally able to find one this weekend at New York and Co. on sale. It is a plain white boyfriend-style button down shirt with built in side pocket on the hips. It looks like a tuxedo shirt and has a very nice flowy fabric. It seems like they don't carry it online (I couldn't find) so I recommend seeing and trying it on in store. The best part was the price tag. It had an incredible price tag of $8.99 off from $36.95 on sale!

 

I like my white shirts and cardigans perfectly white in top condition so I try not to spend too much money on them. This deal was perfect for me all over. This is a white shirt you can wear for a season while it's crisp and move on to the next one.

 

Here are some more white tunic shirts on sale under $25.

My old white tunic was getting worn out so I was on the hunt for a reasonably priced, well fitting and not too long white tunic for styling it similar to this outfit from last year. I've been looking for a while and have seen a bunch of options both at retail and discount stores.

Spring is around the corner and most of us are on the search for new ways to make use of our Winter wardrobe longer. Patterned cardigans are a great way to cheer up your solids and get more wear out of your Winter skirts and pants.

I compiled a few patterned cardigans all under $25 here. All so fab!

Daily Steal: Angular Native Necklace

I haven't seen this in person, but I love the shape of this "Angular Native Necklace" from Forever 21. It looks well-made in the pictures compared to other comparable brands. The necklace looks extremely versatile with the mix of colors and trendy shape.
