H-e-l-l-o Summer!
And hello to an action-packed social calendar. If parties, cookouts, vacays and festive holidays await you this summer, you may be thinking that it’s time to revamp your wardrobe with some hot-ticket (budget-friendly) items.
Well have no fear because this week I’m bringing you the top 5 must-have fashion pieces for the summer and…wait for it…
They’re all UNDER $30 at Tanger!
Chino Shorts
Bold, colorful, fun and a definite must for summer. Add a casual tee or dress them up with a fun, light-weight blouse. You’ll want options because, if you’re like me, you’ll want to wear these everyday (no judgment here).
And for under $20, you can stock your closet with all your favorite prints and colors. I just did!
J.Crew Factory | Assorted Chino Shorts | $14.95 – $19.95
Flirty Frocks
Fit and flare, shift, swing—whatever your fancy!Dresses are every gal’s summertime BFF because they make pulling together a flirty outfit on the fly oh-so easy.
Old Navy Outlet | One-Shoulder Swing Dress | $20.00
Confession…I may or may not own this dress in every color. Are you seeing a pattern here? It’s definitely my personal, favorite summer staple. Call me simple, but it’s a must and so do-able at that price!
Tie-Front (or back) Tops
This throw-back style is getting major love this summer. Toss it on over a swimsuit, accessorize with a pair of skinnies and a statement necklace or just rock it with a pair of those must-have chino shorts.
You can’t go wrong adding this trend to your summer wardrobe! And mommas, I give you permission to let your midriff see the sun (if done both fashionably and tastefully). 😉

Rompers
Rompers are all the rage right now and are the perfect summer item for a fashion meets function look! They’re perfect for times that call for something dressier but require tasks like packing cars, picking up kids, you know all those times when you’ve fallen victim to that sudden gust of wind. Rompers for the win!

Summer Flats
Move over flip flops because THIS is the summer for stylish sandals and flats. With so many great tropics-ready options, it’s totally easy to pull off a flawless summer look for near to nothing when you shop at Tanger.
