It is Fashionista Friday again and I am sharing some of my recent outfits along with some fashion and frugal tips. This week I am sharing some of my summer staples—dresses and skirts! And a lot of the items were found at outlet stores. Whenever I am traveling, if I am in a reasonable distance from an outlet I really like, I will make an extra trip to check the place out and stock up!
Shorts: Ross—my first day of shorts for the summer season. Wasn’t quite sure I was ready to share my legs with the world so I balanced it out with a top with longer sleeves for a little more skin coverage.
Necklace: a combination of two hand me down necklaces to make one. A good set of pliers will help in remaking your old jewelry.
Belt: Macy’s—reversible pink and black
Hoop Earrings: Flee Market
Sandals: American Eagle brand bought at TJ Maxx 
Stripped sweater: Marshall’s $7.99
Jeans: Macy’s on sale, straight leg, the only pair of jeans I own, around $30
Sandals: Rainbow, bought at outlet in San Clemente, California
Sweater: thrift store—love this one as it adds a little warmth but not too hot like regular sweaters. A good in between weather sweater.
Head band: Charlotte Russe Outlet—I tend to be matchy matchy but then realize I look ridiculous. I try to match my head bands with an accessory or any other color other than the one most dominant in the outfit. Matches but not matchy matchy.
Earrings: Target on clearance
Tank top: Old Navy (I have one in every color, a summer staple)
Skirt: ??? Another summer staple. When it is hot I wear tank top and skirt EVERY day. 
What are your summer staples? Do you shop outlets?
