Share the Love

So I just wanted to take a quick second for something. A clothing website called Mod Cloth (modcloth.com) is doing a promotion with sharing. Every person that uses the link down below and joins the modcloth community and joins the email list, will get a link they canshare on their blog, facebook, or twitter! Every person who joins because of you, Mod Cloth will give you and the new member $10! I love this website because they have really unique and cool retro clothing, jewelry, shoes, apartment items, gifts and alot more stuff I can't think of right now! I spend so much time looking at items on this website and when purchasing they are very helpful to the point of telling you if the item runs small, big, or true to size. This further promises the great fit of your purchase! Also when I have ordered from Mod Cloth, i get an unexpected gift in my box with my purchase. They also have a great policy of free shipping for US orders $50 or more. There is a "Be the Buyer" Program where we get to vote on samples before they become available to purchase. I really like it because I know theyre listening to my opinion on what I want to buy. They also have a really fantastic blog and are constantly running contests for gift cards! I seriously suggest you guys check out the site and join the modcloth community! I did and absolutely love being a part of it!

I figured it out!

So I told you guys I would find away to keep this blog somewhat alive and active during the summer and it just hit me. I made an instagram! So now I can show you guys my outfits more than having to wait weeks for me to get home, take pictures, and post them. I am still new and I'm not sure if the lingo is different from facebook but I literally just made it two minutes ago so I'll explore and find out. So add/follow me or whatever instagram calls it at "prettyaffordablefashion". I will try to post a lot of pictures of my outfits, the problem is that I work most days during the week so I don't really have a way or reason to dress up because there is somewhat of a dress code from the board of health. BUT on the positive side its still a great way to keep communicating with you guys! So if you add/follow me, I'll be sure to follow you back! I love to see all of your creations and hopefully we can inspire each other whether it be clothes, hair, makeup, shoes, whatever! I love seeing and hearing from the readers of this blog!
So remember, "prettyaffordablefashion" and have a fashionable day! :)

I know, I know...

I realize I haven't posted anything in weeks and its not because I havent wanted to. I am working and living away from home and on Cape Cod all summer and unfortunately the computer I have access to I can't load pictures onto, thus diminishing any type of entry this entire blog was created for. I will be home for less than 24 hours sometime next week so I am going to try really hard to get a lot of posts ready or something. I dont know exactly how or what I am going to do, but trust I will find a way. But if for some chacne I don't, we will all, myself included, have to live without the blog being updated until I go back home for good. But at least by then there wil be a bunch of new fall clothes to look at! so stay positive and hopefully I will be able to post again!

Let It Be


So today I'm wearing my trusty polka dot skirt. I couldn't tell you how many times I've worn that skirt in the short time since I had bought it. Hey, what can I say, I love my polka dots! Also this skirt I'm pretty sure is supposed to be worn around the hips, but I just slapped on a safety pin in the back and pulled it up around my waist so it created a better shape for my body. I also have on my awesome tee with The Beatles in a 4 tile set up that was their album cover for the last studio album titled Let It Be. I love this t shirt for not only what is on it, but the way it fits and feels. It's a light weight cotton so I don't get hot when I wear during the summer even though it has mid length sleeves. It has black sleeves and a white body so it has a certain illusion to it. It also has the awesome worn-in feeling that makes you want to wear it more and more. My denim jacket, as you can see, did not last long on with the heat!



Please ignore my face, it's a good picture for the outfit and I need to learn how to not talk during these...

Last Sweater Before Summer


So I was cleaning my albums on the computer out and found these outfit pictures that I never posted! This was about a month ago and I'm pretty it was and will be the last time I wear a sweater before Fall comes around. It's too bad because the shorts are very nice in the summer because they are light weight and they go perfectly with the sweater for the whole nautical look, but it's just too hot to wear! I love this outfit and I wear it alot in the spring because it gives that retro vibe to it with the high waist shorts. I tend to wear red white and blue a lot, and in fact, the bathing suit I ordered for this year makes me look like an American Flag (pics to come! 4th of July maybe!?).
Anyway, I'll be on the hunt this summer for a short sleeve version of the red and white stripes to wear with my shorts! Sorry there is only one full outfit picture the rest were all blurry!
