Helping women love what they wear on a budget

9 Affordable Effortless Summer Outfits

9 Affordable Effortless Summer Outfits

Summer is here and I am feeling very busy lately with life.  Nothing major is going on, it’s just keeping up with daily life that is getting me feeling like I don’t have time for very much.  Some days it’s difficult just to find time to shower and get ready for the day.  I really don’t have much energy to put into thinking about what to wear for the day, that’s why I’ve been keeping my outfits effortless this summer.

 I’ve always liked dressing for summer because it’s easy.  Wearing shorts and a t-shirt or putting on a dress takes little effort.  It’s hard to find extra time to get yourself ready when you have other people relying on you to get them ready too. That’s why having effortless ready to go outfits is key during the summer months.

Today I want to share 9 effortless outfits that I have been wearing so far this summer. Of course they are all affordable as well!

White t-shirt and jean shorts

I am loving this effortless combo this summer.  There is nothing to it, yet is looks so cute and put together. I like to add a hat to complete the look.

Black Romper

I love rompers in the summer.  I bought this button down romper last summer after Anna was born because it was perfect for nursing and postpartum.  I’m still wearing it all the time this summer for a quick look that always is cute.

Jumpsuit

I like to say that jumpsuits and rompers are a gift to moms.  They make everything so easy… except going to the bathroom, but you get used to that.  😂 This cropped jumpsuit from Old Navy is my latest jumpsuit and I love it.

Paper bag shorts

I love the look of paper bag shorts with a fitted tank top.  It is always an easy look.  Green paper bag shorts always have a place in my wardrobe. I also have a pair of leopard shorts that I wear a lot too!

Flowy teared skirt

A flowy skirt can go a long way when you need an effortless summer outfit.  This floral skirt from Kohl’s is really easy to wear on a hot summer day.  It goes great paired with a cami.

Black dress

Can you go wrong with a black dress? Never!  I love this button front black sundress from Amazon.  I’ve already worn it a couple times this summer.  I love accessorizing with some fun colorful jewelry.

T-shirt dress

T-shirt dresses always make an effortless look.  I like to add a pop of color or pattern.  I recently bought this t-shirt dress at Target.  I always makes a good park outfit.

Lounge shorts

I’m not sure if I would call these shorts lounge shorts or not, but they remind me of my cheerleading shorts from high school.  They are so comfy and I love wearing them casually around the house or out and about when running errands.

Cropped jeans and a t-shirt

If you need a quick and effortless outfit on the go, just remember that there is nothing wrong with just wearing some jeans and a t-shirt.  I’m all about a good cropped jean in the summer time.  I love these cropped flair jeans.  They are always my summer go to jean.

I wasn't sure what to post today. I was debating b I wasn't sure what to post today. I was debating between a picture or a reel, but then I found this picture on my camera roll and I couldn't resist. My little photo bomber is always trying to make her way into my photos. 😜 

This is just a friendly reminder that you never know what or who is behind the Instagram feed.

They aren't sick enough to be sick, but feel yucky enough to be whiny and clingy. Hopefully it will pass soon. For now, my lap is the most popular seat in the house.
