Today, I have a round-up of some affordable summer pieces that I have been really loving all throughout the season. The pieces included in this post are mostly from Target and Abercrombie— two brands that you all know I constantly turn to. Also, Abercrombie often has sales that really mark down prices, so definitely keep an eye out for them. Let’s dive in!

I love the double pleating on the front of this dress. The simplicity of this piece makes it perfect for pairing with statement earrings, and it also comes in black. This dress could even be a great affordable option for a bride looking for a bridal shower or rehearsal dinner outfit. Here, I paired it with some of my favorite neutral wedges.


SKIRT I BODYSUIT I TOP I SNEAKERS I FLATS
I’ve been able to style this skirt several different ways this summer— here’s two of them! In the first look, I paired it with my favorite Abercrombie bodysuit and sneakers. On the right, I dressed it up a little more with an Anthropologie top, gold ballet flat, and added a belt. Styling it this way could be a great outfit for a teacher. This skirt truly is so versatile!

CARDIGAN I BODYSUIT I JEANS I FLATS
I love the stripes and gold buttons on this cardigan. This piece is such a great workwear staple for your closet. Under it, I’m wearing my go-to bodysuit that I had on with the pink skirt. I paired it with my favorite Abercrombie jeans. I ended up bringing these jeans with me to the Nsale this year to try things on with! Point being— I know I can trust these jeans! They’ve been a favorite of mine for years now.


These linen pants are such a win! They have a really great waistband and drawstring. Sometimes, drawstrings bother me on pants like these, and I actually end up removing them, so I wanted to note that! On the left, I am wearing them with my favorite Target tee that you guys have heard me raving about non-stop. And on the right, I paired them with the same cardigan from the previous look but in a different color! Just another great way to wear that piece—here, I almost fully buttoned it so you could see what that looks like.

I am a big fan of tailored shorts—they instantly give you a polished, put-together look! Plus, they’re versatile enough to style from day to night. In this look, I paired them with the same bodysuit as before and added a slim belt for a finishing touch.

This is a classic white shirt dress that you will be able to wear for years. I love the tie waist, which adds a flattering touch. I paired it with wedges here, but you can definitely wear sneakers with this dress too. It’s a great work dress for the summer, and you could even use it as a cover-up on vacation if you wanted to. The bag I have here is no longer available, but this is a similar one.

Last up, I have this adorable little flutter sleeve top with linen shorts. I really love the length of this top to pair with high waisted bottoms. And these $15 shorts have been on total repeat for me this summer! I’ve also styled them as cover up shorts— they are so good.
From casual days to evening outings, this post included a wide variety of pieces. The best part? Many of them can be styled from day to night. I’ve worn so many of these affordable finds over and over again this summer. Happy shopping!
