What I bought This Month- November

Unfortunately, I won't have a what i bought for november because between gas for my car and christmas shopping I have not shopped for myself since halloween. I know, I don't know how I've made it this far either. But do expect a post for any clothing or items that pertain to this blog sometime shortly after christmas with what I received for christmas! Here's hoping for clothes, clothes, and more clothes!

Lace, Beads, and Tights

So, first fall outfit of the year, and also a style I will be wearing a lot this fall and winter: tights and shorts. For fall it doesn't matter what thickness tights you wear because it is still kinda warm. For winter I go for the thicker nylon tights or woolish ones.
I love these shorts! I found them at T.J. Maxx and when I first picked them up I was worried they might look a little trashy. But I always say to try everything on and take your time in the dressing room. Just because it fits, does not mean move onto the next thing. Move around in it. Is it comfy? Itchy? Too short? Too long? Are the colors/patterns good? Will you be able to wear it with alot? I spend an hour in a store and about 50 minutes of it in the dressing room, but I love every piece of clothing I buy and it guarantees that I will wear it. It WILL NOT sit in my closet.
So anyway, they fit perfect and were alot longer than I thought they would be so I got them! I have had the shirt for a long time and it is kinda falling apart where the beads were but hey I have had it for about three years and it was about $4 at Marshall's so I'm not complaining. 
I also love patterned tights. I have the standard, plain, navy brown and black tights for versatility but I also have brown and black patterned tights. I think they give an outfit that extra something if the pieces are plain. I don't use them that much because I tend to buy things with little patterns on them but I thought it looked good with these pieces. And I don't consider lace a pattern if a dark color on a dark color. I have a purple dress with white lace overlay and that I consider because it is making the statement and the patterned tights are not needed. 
So, I  cannot wait for fall! Don't be afraid to leave comments, suggestions or questions below or on my instagram: prettyaffordablefashion! Good luck in your fashion adventures!

Beach Blanket Bingo

Hello! So I have been so busy with schoolwork that I haven't been able to watch tv let alone blog. So I'm catching up on  things this weekend.
I just love this outfit. I wore it last week, when sadly, it was still warm. All this past week it has been about 50 degrees out in the morning. I love fall, but it just feels weird that last week I was wearing shorts and now all I wear are tights and jeans.
I love this outfit because I love playing with the denim fashion rule. "DO NOT wear more than one piece of denim in the same outfit" is what any person with a little fashion sense will tell you. But I think there is an exception to this rule: two different shades of denim. In this outfit they shorts are so much darker than the shirt's denim color, that I think it is okay. 
Also, I just love playing with proportions. Give me a crop top and high waist bottoms and I will be a happy girl! Which is also explains the title of this post. These proportions and cut of the clothes just remind me of something Annette would wear while she is partying with Frankie and friends on the beach at night over her swimsuit.
So this is my last summer outfit of the year :( Good bye summer, and hello beautiful fall colors and layers that I love so much!
So check back often for new outfits and good luck in your fashion adventures!
