Reese Witherspoon is the epitome of summer chic in her blue floral top and coordinating shorts. It's no surprise that her top, shorts and hat are all by her fashion label Draper James - the girl knows what she likes and wears it well! And to her credit, you won't find pieces quite like these elsewhere, because Reese has done a good job of filling a void in the market with unique pieces that are lovely and ladylike yet cool and casual. If you love the Draper James look but not the prices, I'd recommend scoping out similar pieces at Old Navy, LOFT, Who What Wear for Target, and Ann Taylor, which is wear I found a pretty print top to recreate Reese's look on a budget (and it's 60% off with code SUMMER60). Her Tiffany bracelet, Rolex watch, Proenza Schouler bag and gold Gucci sandals ($550, selfridges.com) round out this fabulous look...read on for our lookalike finds under $85!

I was feeling especially inspired after a shoe shopping trip to DSW the other day, so I got busy and wrote this piece. I personally own 4 of the 7 styles shown here, and I may go back for more! If you're not sure what to buy, focus on old-school tennis shoes, platforms, gladiators and anything 90s inspired. These are my top 7 shoe picks to carry you through the summer season in style (and even the fall, really) - and they're all under $100.

While you were busy sleeping (shame on you), your favorite fashion bloggers were busy shopping and sharing their favorite finds from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, a mega shopping event that kicks off today for Nordstrom credit and debit cardholders.

This annual event is ridiculously popular because new fall arrivals are deeply discounted for a limited time during the sale and prices increase to the regular ticket price after the sale is done. Early access is from July 14th to the 22nd, then the sale opens up to everyone from July 22nd through August 8th.

I plan on shopping both online (free shipping! and returns!) and in-person, and I'll share my finds here on the blog as well as Instagram and Snapchat (@budgetbabe). In the meantime, I've been stalking the #NSALE hashtag on social media to see what everyone else is buying...check out what these top bloggers are loving, and click on their links to get complete outfit details!

I can always count on Rosie Huntington Whiteley to offer serious style inspiration, and this look is no exception. Here the model pairs a pink off-the-shoulder top with dark wash crop flare jeans, two of the season's key pieces. Her accessories are effortless and equally on point, from the chain-strap quilted purse to her ankle strap heels and aviator sunglasses. It's feminine, chic, and even a bit edgy. And it can be yours with the budget-friendly finds below, with nothing over $40!

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale kicks off this Thursday July 14 for cardholders, which has sort of come to mark the unofficial start of the fall shopping season for me. That's right, summer feels like it just started and here we are talking about fall clothes already! It's a bit much. So if you'd rather continue to enjoy the warm weather and buy more sandals, by all means. Here's a pair I'm loving from Steve Madden, the 'Savine' huarache heel ($76.98-$109.95 in three colors). I love the boho vibe and the fact that this style is so comfortable given the height. And it turns out that both Target and Payless carry the look for less - under $25! See if you can spot the real from the steals by clicking a link below...and make it an #endlesssummer to remember.
