The Top Tops Under $50 | Perfect for Summer and Fall

Wearing: My must have basic tee | Old pleated shorts (similar here) | Aminah Flats | Straw Tote

With August quickly approaching, it’s almost time for one of my most favorite seasons of the year, Fall! And yes, that means, sweater weather (and not shaving)! Layering pieces from throughout the year is a great way to carry your wardrobe through the seasons to get the most out of them! After gathering several must have Fall pieces from the biggest sale of the year at Nordstrom, I realized I needed a few tops to finish out the hot weather and to sneak under coats for date nights! You can see what I bought from the Nordstrom sale here and here! For the mamas, you can see the best sellers for babies and kiddos here!

TOPS UNDER $50

I rounded up some favorites from a few of my go to stores, Nordstrom, H&M, SHOPBOP and ASOS! These tops start at under $20 which is amazing! I chose the trending colors for the season because they are timeless. You can easily wear them through Summer, Fall, and even next year!

MY BASICS & TOP 5

First, this is my must have, can’t live without, perfect tee. It’s $17 and comes in a variety of colors! I cannot stress how much I have loved this tee and dressing it up and down! There is a similar one by Club Monaco here that is a little bit longer but just as cute! This one is also $17 but has a little more detail at the neckline which is so cute! If you’re like me and love long sleeves, this is my favorite basic long sleeve tee that is currently $12! Very comfy and has a cute button detail, too! It comes in white, pink, cream and black! Now that we have covered the basics, here are my top 5!

BASICS

TOP 5

BLUES

Blue has been my number one color for Summer and I fully plan on closing 2017 out in it. There isn’t a shade of blue that I don’t love but lately this shade on this adorable dress, the blues of this ruffle top, this striped bow tank, and this cute top, and the pop of these shoes have me swooning (and wanting to buy more blue)!

NEUTRALS

I’m known for being “that crazy mom” that has two babies and WHITE everywhere in her house. You can see all the white and how I keep it white here! I am so not afraid of white especially when it comes to clothing. Neutrals will always have their place and I definitely don’t follow the no white after Labor Day rule so let’s buy some neutrals for Fall!

PINKS

Since having a girl, I think my entire life has exploded with pink. I have truly loved every minute of it! I am always looking for new ways to add pink into my life and you should be too, it will make you happy, I promise! If you need help in the department of falling in love with pink, read up on this post from National Pink Day!

Now that I have spent all my money, and yours, make sure to let me know which ones you loved! I am already planning for sweater weather and I will be sure to share my layering choices as we approach Fall! I loved finding these cute tops under $50 so we’ll have to do a follow up with sweaters under $50 as well!

A year before these were taken, she would swing he A year before these were taken, she would swing her head up so fast if I tried to pet her face. She thought I was going to hit her so she’d quickly throw her head up to avoid it. Slowly, she learned that I wasn’t there to hurt her. This was one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve ever had!
She rescued me in more ways than I rescued her 💕 I’m so grateful I have these forever memories captured by my sweet hubbie!
Remy Update ❤️‍🩹 Thank you for the prayer Remy Update ❤️‍🩹 Thank you for the prayers and support for Remy as always! We had so much encouragement in December when Remy did a 7 day Holter monitor on his heart. It’s not easy to get a 4 year old to wear a monitor attached to his chest 24-7 for 7 days but he did so amazing. We waited what felt like ages to hear from Dr. Brothers since it was over the holidays. Everett was next to me when the preview showed up and all we saw was, “I reviewed the heart rate monitor which was reassuring.” We both were shaking immediately. The emotions take over so quickly!! Remy’s overall results were great! He does have some PVCs (premature ventricular complexes). We will follow up in one year to make sure the frequency of them is staying low. These are very rare and are usually seen a normal heart which is interesting. So far, nothing to be concerned with! We are so grateful! Grow, Remy, grow! ❤️‍🩹

God didn’t make many of them like you and I’m so grateful you’re mine. We’ve seen so much of the world together, brought in SO many babies, celebrated on the mountains, held each other through the valleys. I always believed in fairy tales but you’ve kept ours going so strong. Thank you for being a wonderful husband and excellent father! We absolutely love you!

It’s been years since I’ve had to walk through It’s been years since I’ve had to walk through these fears and emotions. Unfortunately, I am asking for some big prayers so we can avoid the hospital. Remy has a bad cough that has come and gone and now returned. His saturations are dipping from low 90’s to high 80’s which I normally would call 911 for. I just texted his doctor and we are working hard to keep him from an ambulance ride. Please pray 🙏🏼 Thank you so much!
