Cheap Fix.

By: Jen Shoop

Today, featuring things on my radar this week that are on the more affordable end up the spectrum.  I know I feature a range of items and sometimes my own posts depress me because I want all.the.things but my budget will not permit such spendthriftness.

SO.  Some finds that are friendly on the ol’ wallet and easy on the ol’ eyes.

Pick1

These embroidered espadrilles are funky and cheery ($54), and make me want summer in the baddest of ways.  I’d pair these with a gauzy white dress and be on my way.

Pick2

Bathmats don’t have to be boring ($60).  Seriously — what a great way to introduce a little extra color and pattern into your daily routine!

Pick3

I love to keep my bar stocked with great printed cocktail napkins for entertaining.  They add such a great pop of pattern/color/fun to a little snacking spread.  These marbleized ones from Target ($3!) were a must.  I normally stock up on styles from Caspari, which I order through Amazon Prime (which — if you don’t already have a Prime membership — may actually be the best thing since sliced bread).  A few of the staples always stockpiled in my buffet: these and these.  For Easter, had to have these.

Pick4

These patterned lucite trays from Emily McCarthy ($20-$60, depending on size) are still the greatest hostess gifts ever.  Also perfect for pretty much any woman you don’t know very well.  Who doesn’t love a sweet printed tray for trinkets, desktop organization, or jewelry?!

Pick5

I absolutely DIED over these bangles with their sweet wrist bow — you won’t believe that they’re only $67-$90, depending on thickness (here for the thinner size, here for the thicker size)?  And you can pick the color ribbon!  AND they come in mini-me sizes ($40) for you little one!

Pick6

OK, so this one isn’t on the cheaper end of the spectrum, but it’s on sale ($260) and it’s the perfect party dress.  Also available in shirt form ($200)

How insanely fun are these fringed sandals ($128)?!  Totally channeling the Aquazzura Wild Things that everyone is dying over!

Pick8

Are you getting sick of the OTS tops I’ve been posting?  Sorry ’bout it.  Here’s a way to get the look at a lower price point ($62).

Looking for another fun little spring top?  Check out this major win from Banana — love it in the lilac color, and it’s $68!  Or this style from J. Crew, equally cute and fresh for spring weather!

Pick9

A striped clutch is always a welcome pick me up.  Love this tasseled, orange-striped find ($68) or this Kayu style ($69).
