Posted by on May 22, 2013 in Fashion, Impress For Less, Style Advice | No Comments

Updating my wardrobe for the changing seasons is my favorite thing to do. I’m in the proccess of reorganizing my closet and putting away all my winter clothes, since about this time every year I go shopping for summer clothes. I usually start by taking stock on what I currently own and then I like to search for items that I’ll need. I like shopping for blouses first. Somehow every year I don’t have enough tops. I have tons of dresses, but not enough varierty of tops to go with my skirts and jeans.

This year I started my research early, so whether you’re into feminine or tailored silhouettes, I’ve found budget-friendly picks to suit every occasion. Hoping to fill your summer wardrobe with versatile blouses? Here are 7 options under $100 to carry you through the sunny season with style.

Happy Friday friends! I stumbled across this beautiful lookbook by Brazilian label Vivara Jewelry featuring one of the country’s top models, Isabeli Fontana, for its spring 2013 campaign. I love the styling of their elegant gems with flower accessories photographed in nature. Besides the jewelry being amazing, I absolutely love the model’s makeup.

Happy Wednesday, lovelies! I hope that you are having a fab week so far! I received this Italian inspired gift basket that was sent to me by San Diego Italian Film Festival in preparation for their upcoming monthly movie “Sentire l’aria” which will be playing tomorrow at 7 pm at the MOPA in Balboa Park.

The goodies basket had a bottle of Italian wine, cheese from Venissimo Cheese in Mission Hills and homemade pizzelles, which were amazing. We had a blast tasting them yesterday. It was such a fun experience with the mister. Perfect to get out of our normal routine.

If you live in the San Diego area, check out the Italian Film Festivals Thursday nights in Balboa Park. I highly recommend checking out their site for more info on this and future Italian movies!

This is one of my favorite spring looks. It’s super comfy and easy to put together. Just using 4 key pieces you are out the door in 5 minutes looking stylish and fun. All you need to recreate this look is a printed skirt. Once you have selected what skirt to wear, pick the most dominant color from the pattern in your skirt to style your top and a color from the same family for your accessories and shoes. That’s it! You are ready to go!
