Binge or Budget ~ Summer Musts Haves

Due to my love of navy, white and stripes (with a pop of color) this binge or budget post accidentally became great outfit ideas for the 4th of July.  The most important thing about these pieces is that they all mix and match with ease, and ease is key for an easy breezy summer right!? And due to some sales a few of the Binge pieces are now border line budget too!

What are your plans for the 4th? I plan on family time, floating on my pool raft, grilling some creative healthy BBQ and watching fire works at our local park. A perfect celebration for America's (and my) Independence Day  ;)


BINGE

This Free People white T-shirt started a little bingy for a T at $48 then turned into a budget going on sale, now $24! ~ Stripe skirt  on sale as well for $34!

TODAY IN THE CLOSET:

Monday Must Haves - a great outfit!  Nothing like starting the week looking good because it may be cliche but it's oh so true, when you look good you feel good!  So here's a Binge or Budget that I think is really a close call except for the price of course.  The total binge look is $1,926 (ouch) and the total budget look is $212. That's nice and leaves room for a Soy Chai yes?
