LOFT Textured Stripe Scarf ($39.50)

Since last week was such a big hit, I decided to post a second week of under-$50 items.  Because regardless of budget, everyone loves a cheap thrill.

Scarves are a wonderful layering piece for fall, winter and spring.  They can add color and texture to the most basic outfits.  They’re also a great way to stay warm in chilly, air-conditioned offices during the summer months.

I adore the mix of neutrals on this striped scarf from LOFT.  I also like this affordable cashmere & silk scarf from Nordstrom in a versatile black and white print. Nordstrom also has this color block scarf in five shades, including neutral Earth tones and muted colors.

If you’re looking for something under-$25, try this oversized Michael Stars scarf in a versatile ivory.  Express also has some lovely scarves for $19, including this white scarf with a blue medallion border and this scarf with bold citron accents.

    Yay, another under $50 week! I’m loving this, since I don’t have the kind of budget for the $400 scarves that most fashion bloggers seem to be able to afford. Thanks for keeping it real!

    Go Belle go!

    I’ll splurge on basic quality items that I know I will get a lot of use out of (LBD, suits, shoes, every day bag), but something like a scarf? Never!

    Awesome post. I must admit, I’m a bit of a scarf collector (though my boyfriend seems to think its more along the lines of hoarding)

    Regardless, Target also has some great scarves for affordable prices. I recently purchased this one and I am.in.love.

A few months ago, my husband killed two of my plants. I was out of town for several weeks, and while I was away, he apparently forgot that plants need water to live. So when I returned, my snake plant and my Calamondin tree were both dead, while his braided money tree continued to thrive. […]

It’s allegedly spring. However, for every minute of sunshine, there seems to be an hour of rain and gloom. So while I’d love to wear lighter spring pieces, it’s time to bring on the layers.

Business Casual Outfit: Linen Closet

And just like that, it’s April. Summer is almost upon us, and the retailers are filled with linen wares. Now, you know that I am usually unwilling to wear linen to work due to the wrinkles. But in this post-pandemic world, perhaps my mind can change.
