As I've said before, I'm big on saving money (most of my paycheck goes to rent), so I like to consider myself pretty killed at finding chic things for very cheap. I'm not saying I won't splurge on a pair of jeans or shoes here and there (hey, I'm only human!), but the one thing I especially hate spending lots of cash on is accessories.
There are many brands that do an amazing job of making their items look designer without having a crazy price tag. And lucky for you, I know just where to find those pieces. Looking for some really cute handbags, jewelry, hats, and sunglasses that won't break the bank this summer? Keep scrolling—I got you.
Handbags
I am here for shoulder bags this season (that's pretty much all I wear), so it was only a matter of time until I added this baby to my shopping cart. I also am loving this color.
The chain on this one is everything.
There's always a need for a basket bag in the summer
Like I said, I have a thing for shoulder bags.
A chic beach bag for only $13? I'll take it.
If you haven't grabbed yourself a slouchy bag this season, may I suggest this one in mint green?
I actually screamed when I found this bag.
Real leather for only $40—just saying.
Hats & Hair Pieces
Perfect for beach days (and regular days).
These are such an easy way to spruce up a simple look.
It feels wrong not to add this to my cart—it's so chic!
I'm always here for a sporty bucket hat.
I've been wearing baseball hats for years, so I was happy to see they came back this season as a major trend.
I'm all about stylish scrunchies these days.
Okay, have I made my love for bucket hats clear?
Jewelry
It might be the L.A. girl within me, but I need this palm tree necklace.
Anklets are huge right now, and I've seen this daisy one on some of my favorite fashion girls on Instagram. (So naturally, it's made its way to my cart.)
Or if you're more into classic gold…
I wear this ring every day, and the quality is unbeatable.
This is still my most complimented jewelry piece to date (and it's only $13).
I've had these croissant hoops in my cart for quite some time now.
Okay, I'm obsessed with everything about these (especially the price).
Sunglasses
Oversize sunnies are always first on my list.
I'm also a fan of anything cat eye.
You always need a classic black pair.
This square shape has always intrigued me.
