Last Friday I went to the mall (specifically Pioneer Square) with the goal of finding affordable summer clothes and playing clothes, but instead I tried it out throughout the store to find something I like in a few categories (also summer office clothes). I don’t take pictures of things that don’t work (it’s a waste of time and will include bad self-body shame for everyone involved). So what you’re looking at here today is something I think I really really love and have passed many tests. Now I have more apple shaped (larger boobs, small boobs on the waist/legs). I’m around size 4 now, so the size in the store is wild and not consistent across the board, so this shows the size I’m wearing.
Jean jacket Size xs | blouse Size S | Striped trousers Size S | Mule
A sturdy summer odd jacket – Lightweight denim, huge pockets, easy to fit into layers. I loved that. But we are all here for our pants. I tried all the wide footed linen pants they had, and This is the only one I felt that there were drapes that I hadn’t read as pajamas. The cream and grey stripes are flattering, either worn with flip-flops or slightly raised (but not too many). I want to wear it all summer when I don’t have a self-tanner on my feet (this is never the case, ha ha – This is my favorite in my new home It happens in 2 hours). I don’t dislike loose linen pants, but in many cases I feel a bit of schlubby inside them outside the house – not these!!
top (+ resemble) Size S | Shorts (Similar) Size s | Mule
How cute is this set???? It’s very perfect for park hangs, swimsuits, and mall shopping – wherever you want to be cool and casual but not boring. These are perfect for me Nice boxy top With the round shirt hem (that is, not straight), the shorts don’t hug, cut or gather in strange places. I don’t usually wear this set Those Nisoro Mules (It’s a favorite pair for almost any occasion that wants to make your heels comfortable for a few hours) But, whether it’s flip-flops, sneakers, or even cute wedges, this yellow and white stripe allows you to enjoy the yellow trends of this summer without financially investing. Check out the affordable summer outfits!
blazer Size S | blouse (+ resemble) Size S | Shorts Size 4 | Mule
If I did an office job, this is a great summer suit. It’s linen and looks really high-end, but very reasonably priced! My lifestyle doesn’t support having a set of white suits (but I buy this entirely when I head to New York for a work meeting). The blouse is easy and lightweight (not a complete slam dunk, but it’s cute enough).
blazer Size xs | top Size S | Skot Size 4 | Mule
The other one should be a scoat! Cream (does a little better than bright white). I loved the cut jacket – Strong shoulders that drape really well. Skot Pretty cute – skirt on the front and shorts on the back. and That ribbed tank top Pretty great – at $9.99 there are several colors. Perfect for layers, not too see-through, showing my bits and bobs. I wear medium, but if I want a better fit, the size is down (it was loose as a medium).

Skott evidence:)
blazer Size S | blouse Size S | Shorts Size S | Mule
Perhaps my favorite piece look – these navy blue shorts are so cute and paired Refreshing white blazer I felt quite “me.” Shorts It’s formal so I think you can wear them perfectly (or anywhere). Linen blouse It has cute ruffled sleeves and isn’t something to do new in this world, but if you want a more airy white linen blouse, this is a great and affordable price.
Shacket Size S | pants Size 4 | Mule
Listen, I’m not a huge white denim wearer all year round or summer, but this set is super cute. I bought it top I have it in denim, so enthusiastically (actually I wear it), because it’s a solid shacket. It’s firm in the cream with buttons and pocket details (and it’s lightweight, not very thick heavy denim). jeans I didn’t get them because I had high waisted me for a long time, but if you like high waisted denim with straight legs they were great!
Shacket Size S | top Size S | Shorts Size S | Mule
oh! This is White denim shirt As a shacket These amazing pull-on linen shorts. Again, I have tried many linen shorts and these were my favorites. Cute, affordable, a bit burning (not hugging or cutting at your waist).
Shacket Size S | top Size S | Shorts Size 4 | Mule
I really liked it too These shorts There is a tie on the top. I rarely do these because I think they’re perfect for tank tops being pushed in.
Button up Size xs | Shorts Size S | Mule
It’s certainly not clear that they don’t make the best outfits, but individually, the pieces are amazing. Baggier Jean Shorts Drawstring/resilient waist (very comfortable) gives it a little fire. Solid summer play shorts. after that Linen shirt It’s very good. Easy to wear, breathable, generous/flavored striped pattern, wear a dress above or below her = a solid summer shirt.
Where should I go next for affordable summer clothes and clothes????? I tried (and failed) mangoes, but I’ve never been to Old Navy bit by bit… Just say the word… Oh, if any of these sell out online, if you have, I’ll definitely check out your local H&M.
