Plus Size 4th of July Outfit

Hope everyone had a fun and safe 4th of July. I wanted to post a quick review of my patriotic outfits for the holiday! I had work on Thursday so I kept it business causal (for Charleston) with the first outfit. The second outfit is definitely casual and perfect for a breezy night by the water for fireworks.

By the way this was mine and Nick's first fireworks shows. Last year we forwent all the shows and headed back to Bama to meet my family for the first time so it was nice getting to relax all day with fun festivities.

Remember: you can look great in budget-friendly attire! 

Dress: Ross - under $18
Belt: JC Penney - $2.98
Heels: Cato's - $3
Headband - Dollar Tree - $1

Total Outfit: $25

Dress: Cato's - under $20 

Blouse: Ross - $8 

Shoes: KMart - $20 

Headband: Dollar Tree - $1 

Total Outfit: $49

I refuse to pay over $20 for a dress and $25 for shoes, but I still get compliments constantly on my outfits. You don't always have to gut your wallet for a cute outfit! 

Cozy Cold Weather Outfit

In the south it isn't uncommon to have a day where there are extreme differences in temperatures. Yesterday and today were some of those days. Yesterday's high temperature was 75º as opposed to today's high of 41º. 

This called for some cozy and warm clothes. When I put the outfit together last night Nick mentioned how nice it was. When I put it on this morning he again mentioned how nice I looked so I had him just snap a couple shots of me before work. I got to work and got several compliments so here is what I wore! 

White Sweater: Kmart

Charcoal Overvest: JC Penney 

Skirt: Goodwill 

Leggings: Kmart

Boots: Lane Bryant
