Trends on a Budget

With Forever 21 stores popping up like dandelions everywhere, it's become increasingly easy to keep with trends without spending your whole paycheck. I always like to have options because sometimes I want a bit of a toned-down version of a trend. You know, neon nail polish instead of neon Hammer pants. Here are my picks for the latest trends under $50 a pop.

Shoes - Under $50 by I Totally Need This featuring Cynthia Vincent shoes

Here is a collection of the latest in shoes. Look for peep-toe booties and variations on a summer staple, the gladiator sandal. Those red gladiator sandals feature studs, another trend.

Chambray - Under $50 by I Totally Need This featuring Pins and Needles dresses

I used to tease my husband for an old family portrait where everyone in his family is wearing a chambray shirt. Now when I wear mine he teases me. Hey, fashion comes and goes. Next year I'll probably tease this post but whatever! I love the look of the Charlotte Russe boyfriend chambray shirt over skinny black jeans. Chic!

Tribal - Under $50 by I Totally Need This featuring Echo Design scarves

The tribal trend is extremely easy to wear because you can take it as far as you want. Wear a tribal print dress or if you just want a touch of pattern go with a handbag or tribal-inspired shoe (only $20!).

Don't get hung up on going head to toe trendy. One trendy piece compliments the basics you already have!
