Just in time for planting season, Target has unveiled some of the cutest supplies to decorate and even grow your garden. A chalkboard hanging sign could greet guests for outdoor barbecues, slate stakes identify herbs in style, and mini lanterns could add a warm glow to your picnic table after dark. There are even small starter kits with seeds for flowers or a windowsill herb garden. Whether you have a big backyard, a small apartment balcony or just a sunny window to work with, there's something for everyone this season. Green thumb, not required.

If you pick up something fabulous from the Target dollar spot, I'd love to see your finds! Tag me on Instagram, @budgetbabe #dollarbindiaries.

Just because it's spring doesn't mean everyone's donning florals and pastels. Actress Bella Thorne sticks with rocker-chick essentials in her graphic tank, skinny jeans and moto boots. Her covetable blush-grey Chanel bag, however, keeps things feeling...seasonal.

With Memorial Day just around the corner, it's official: Summer is upon us. And a new season means a whole new wardrobe. Of course revamping one's entire closet can get costly, and takes the fun out of easy, breezy dressing. After an alert reader called my attention to these chambray pants at Walmart.com, I began browsing their womens clothing options and ended up buying a bunch of key pieces that will carry me through summer on a dime. Here are three complete outfits under $30 that I put together to inspire you to shop Walmart's affordable spring/summer womens clothes...keep reading to see which items I bought, too!

In this weekly column, I’m bringing you my favorite budget-fashion steal, plus tips on how to shop for bargains that don't look cheap. This week, we’re talking bags. Make sure to check out my blog SydneStyle.com for more fashion inspiration!

April showers bring May flowers. And it’s not just nature that’s in bloom! Florals are one of the biggest fashion trends of the season. The easiest way to work the trend into your wardrobe is with accessories.

Lately every time a celebrity or fashion blogger stops me in my tracks, they are inevitably wearing Alice and Olivia, a coveted brand that's always pushing the style envelope while still being totally girly and whimsical. One look at Taylor Swift's daring Alice + Olivia high-waist lace shorts ($295, Nordstrom.com) and you can see what I mean. Her gorgeous graphic black and white bottoms are definitely unique but the lace short trend is something we can all attempt. The trick to making these borderline boudoir bottoms look daytime appropriate is to pair them with a demure top (think longsleeve) and chic flats for day. Ready to try lace shorts for yourself? Check out my 10 picks below, starting at just $13!
