Helping women love what they wear on a budget

Favorite Summer Outfit Recap

September 6, 2021 by Katie Haller

Affordable end of summer outfit round up

It’s Labor Day, which means summer is now coming to an end.  I always feel like this time of the year is bittersweet.  I love fall and I am excited about cooler weather and getting back into a routine, but I also hate to see the summer go.  I know that the cold weather and winter are right around the corner so it’s best to enjoy all the warm days while you can.

I feel like I have so many ideas for fall outfits, but I am not one to jump right into fall fashion just because pumpkin spiced lattes are back.  I try to hold onto summer clothes as long as I can.  I love the transitional outfits.  Incorporating fall colors into my wardrobe while still wearing comfortable clothes for the heat.

Because I haven’t had a chance to take many fall outfit photos yet, I figured that I would do a little round-up of my favorite summer outfits.  Some you may have seen on Instagram and some have been stuck on my camera roll on my phone.

I love this floral midi dress I found at J. Crew Factory!  It’s so easy to style and I think that it will be great to wear into the fall!

This adorable chambray dress is from Bella Grace Boutique.  I am obsessed with it!  It’s so soft and comfortable!  It’s the perfect dress to just throw on and go!  You can use my code THRIFTYWIFE to shop it and save 20%!!

This heart sweater from Amazon is so fun for fall, but I am also looking forward to wearing it for Valentine’s Day!  It’s such a comfy everyday sweater.  I wore it with shorts, but I am looking forward to styling it for cooler weather!

I love this button-front long sleeve dress from Amazon.  I feel like it would make the perfect teacher work dress.  It’s so comfortable and I love the button details on the front!

This pink cardigan from Amazon and white button-down tank from Old Navy have been on repeat in my wardrobe this summer.  Here are 2 different ways that I have styled them recently.

This summer I rediscovered one of my favorite stores… Express!  I shopped at Express so much in college.  They always had amazing clearance sales and their jeans were my favorite.  For some reason I stopped shopping there, but this summer I started back up again.  I did one order in the beginning of the summer and I loved what I got so much I decided to participate in their ambassordor program on Instagram.  Here are the Express outfits I recently shared over on Instagram and TikTok!

I love a good romper and that’s why this button from navy romper from Amazon has been on repeat in my summer wardrobe.  It’s been so hot and humid out lately that a nice lightweight romper like this can go a long way.

Another Amazon dress that I love.  This black dress is another easy dress for summer.  I love the knot on it and the high neck cut.  I am looking forward to styling this dress for the fall!

Before I go, I will share one last Amazon dress.  This colorful striped dress is so fun to wear.  My wardrobe is full of neutrals, so I felt like adding a big pop of color would be fun!  It definitely has a 70’s retro feel to it!
