Anine Bing dress via The RealReal | ASOS boots (similar) | Lulus handbag

When you hear The RealReal, most people’s minds go to the big names: Fendi, Dior, Gucci, and whatever other designer brands whose vintage items are currently trending. However, what I love most about this site are the more moderately priced, modern and everyday items from brands like L’Agence, Anine Bing, Veronica Beard and more. I love to shop sustainably, but I honestly didn’t know it could be so chic until I found The RealReal. It’s probably why it’s become such an obsession for me…! I have about 6 pages of favorited items (most of them are already sold, but I keep them saved for inspiration), and literally check it every single day to see if the items I’m watching go on extra sale. I’ve snagged a couple pairs of Jimmy Choo boots for under $200 each, Diane von Furstenberg pieces for under $100…the discounts and treasures are endless.

While I am a part of their affiliate program (meaning I make a small percentage of income from links I post featuring their items), I’ve purchased everything on my own which is how you know I’m truly bargain hunting. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to go find some more dealdeals.

Tula Boutique tee (similar) | Levi’s denim shorts (sized up two sizes) | Sandals c/o Huma Blanco | Soludos handbag (similar)

Peru has been quietly working its way up my travel wishlist to become one of the places I’m most excited to visit one day. Huma Blanco shoes are designed by Adriana Crocco and created in her home country of Peru with a goal of creating more long-term jobs. I’m all about supporting businesses that are about much more than profit and loss, and these perfect ankle-tie sandals are a chic reminder of the companies that are out there trying to make the world a better place.

Yellow blazer and shorts c/o Sézane | AGOLDE jeans | Sam Edelman loafers | Coach handbag (similar) | Everlane t-shirt | Michele’s sunglasses

I’ve waited at least a year for my perfect summer suit to make its way into my closet. Nice to meet you, little yellow floral number. The best thing about this set is that you can easily wear the shorts on their own with a little white tee and sandals, or the blazer on its own with jeans or slacks for easy workwear. Sézane may have came up with the design, but you come up with your own way to wear it. Hopefully showing you how I decided to style it gets the idea ball rolling!
