What to Wear to A Summer Wedding: Budget-Friendly Picks for A Beachy, Formal or Casual Affair

3 Wedding Guest Looks: Beach, Formal or Casual

Weddings are by far one of my favorite parts of summer for many reasons, and dressing-up definitely tops that list. No two wedding are ever the same, which means guests can have fun creating distinct looks for each unique celebration, whether it's a beachy/outdoor setting, a casual fete or a more formal party. But shopping for multiple weddings can start to get costly, which is why I've rounded up budget-friendly dresses and shoes under $100 (and many under $50!) to help make the process a little bit easier, and every bit as glamorous.

Review: Summer Haul from DailyLook.com


Dailylook's amazing summer options

Since my first review of the company’s clothes back in April, DailyLook.com is now my go-to online fashion retailer when I am looking for something bold and spunky and affordable without sacrificing quality. We aren’t exactly talking Forever21 prices, but sometimes it just isn’t worth it if the items don’t last long. I have never received a piece that I wasn’t completely in love with. When the deliveryman dropped off my most recent purchase from the site in the signature white box with orange writing, he said to me, “Didn’t I deliver you one of these like two weeks ago?” Whoops! I guess it’s safe to say I’m in love with DailyLook, therefore I am more than happy to bring you a SECOND review of select spring and summer items c/o DailyLook!

Accessory Steal of the Week: Bucket Bag


Accessory Steal of the Week: The Bucket Bag by Sydne Summer for TheBudgetBabe.com

In this weekly column, I’m bringing you my favorite budget-friendly accessory that’s available online or in-stores. This week, it’s all about handbags.

One of the biggest shapes this season is the bucket bag. The great thing about this shape is it’s large enough to carry all your essentials but the longer strap makes it much easier to carry than an oversize satchel. And thank to Old Navy, you don’t need to spend the big bucks!
