The sherpa fleece "sleep jackets" I told you about earlier arrived yesterday! I'm happy to report that they are just as soft, cozy and warm as I expected. I'm glad I got the size medium - small would have been too tight. I'm about 140, 5'8" for reference.

Payless has a great dupe for the popular Kristin Cavallari 'Lash' split shaft bootie! It's currently just $29.99 and there's a BOGO sale going on, too! I'd get these 'Ula' booties for my second pair. Gotta love Payless.

Thanks to reader @elisechristine91 for sharing this find with us via #budgetbabefinds on Instagram (see it in real life)! A few days ago I was complaining about the heat (it was 91 here in Connecticut), but yesterday the temperature dropped and I was complaining about the cold! It only takes one chilly day to remind me what I'll really be living in the next 7 months or so: Soft, cozy sweaters!

Shanina Shaik shows off her features in a silky low-cut blouse and denim cut-offs! Her model-off-duty look might not be easy for everyone to pull off, but we can take some style notes for fall nonetheless! For starters, her black 'Spirit' ankle booties by Dear Frances ($550) are in every It-girl's closet (think Kendall and Bella), but we'd gladly rock this similar pair under $35 instead! The block heel makes these comfortable for everyday while still looking tres chic. And if you want to update your average office button-down, consider an oversized satin blouse instead - buttoned up, of course!

Walmart is teaming up with TV-personality and comedian Ellen DeGeneres on a new affordable women's fashion line launching September 10. The line dubbed EV1 will feature nearly 60 items, ranging from denim and tees to accessories and footwear, priced under $30.
