As the new season rolls in, closets need some updating. However, with the season only lasting a maximum of three months, it’s not always the most feasible thing to purchase a completely new wardrobe. Here are a few staples worth investing in that can be found under $50 and get that closet summer ready!
Denim Jacket: A denim jacket is the perfect addition to any outfit. It can dress up a sundress, or pull together a casual look with black leggings, or pants. Keep warm on a chilly summer night and opt for a cute denim jacket.
Denim shorts: Denim shorts are an easy addition to the summer wardrobe. Everything goes and it’s the classic summer look. The best part is that they will look cute with any shoes. Go for a more laid back look with flip flops or an embellished sandal, even ankle boots or wedges.
Black maxi dress: Another simple addition for the summer side of the closet. It’s simple enough to go with everything, but still can be dressed up easily. There is the classic maxi dress, or, for a bit of a more unique side, grab one with a crazy pattern or side slit. Many also throw a vintage t-shirt over the dress, and tie a knot in the bottom of the shirt.
Solid color bathing suit separates: Bathing suits can get expensive, but one is simply not enough! A simple way to expand ones bathing suit collection is to buy solid color separates. This way, mixing and matching colors is fun, easy, and endless. Black bottoms will go with any color top, or bring two different colors together! H&M bathing suits start as low as $4.95 per piece!
Flip flops: Perfect for the beach, boardwalk, and any outdoor summer activity. Old Navy flip flops are classic for summertime. They are cheap, comfortable, and durable. They also come in a bunch of fun colors. For $2.50 a pair, there is nothing better and more affordable out there!
Cute pair of sandals: For a day out on the town, or a casual date night, a cute pair of sandals is a must. Just make sure they are comfortable; there is no point in owning a shoe that is impossible to walk in.
Beach bag: Invest in a big beach bag to easily transport all of necessities for fun in the sun.
Beach Towel: This is essential! Everybody uses beach towels. Going to the pool, going to the beach, or laying out in the yard, all require a beach towel! They come in plenty of cute prints and are a must have.
Floppy hat: Protect the eyes and skin from harmful UV rays while out and about, enjoying the summer day. Plus, they are VERY in right now.
Sunglasses: Have fun experimenting with different styles of glasses: over sized, cat-eye, or vintage, round. The possibilities are endless!
