Sunday, 02 May 2010 10:57 Written by  Brittany Rodgers

As the weather gets to changing, so do the hot summer fashion trends. Trends constantly change—just like the seasons—and there is no better way to keep up with new looks than with an affordable budget. This summer season’s fashion consists of the “boyfriend” look, ripped jeans, neutral and bright colors, studded blazers and much more.

  There is no better time to wear bright colors than in the summer. Tunic tank tops and summer dresses are known to feature the vivid blues, reds oranges and yellows. Tanks tops could be worn with studded blazers or plain colored blazers. Satin and cotton bodysuits are also hot for the summer for different occasions during the daytime work hours or nightlife. Stores such as Forever 21, H&M, Macy’s, American Apparel and others carry similar tanks and dresses. They offer different varieties in many different styles. Prices ranges from the brand and certain store choices, not too expensive.

Leggings have been a popular clothing item, and print leggings and jean material leggings have started to emerge this season. Three-piece outfits are cute such as blazers and tunic tanks worn with leggings. Destroyed or ripped jeans and boyfriend shorts are popular in the summer. If you wanted to be even more affordable, you can even destroy your own pair—just be careful! Stretched pattern and banded miniskirts are cute and affordable and can be worn either high or low waist. Items such as these can also be purchased and priced similar at H&M, Forever 21, Akira, etc.

 Other affordable accessories for the summer are shoulder ruffles shirts, headbands, military jackets and mid-ankle gladiator sandals.

Affordable stores for hot summer trends are Akira, Gap, Charlotte Russe, BeBe and many more!
