When Brittany asked me to guest post on this topic I was more than thrilled! I know the thought of revamping your wardrobe every season can be a little overwhelming (not to mention expensive!), so I decided to create a little cheat sheet for all you out there who want to update your summer closet with some very chic (and affordable) essentials.

Forever 21 Crochet Sweater Tunic
I first saw crochet all over the Spring/Summer 2010 runways and couldn't wait for the trend to hit stores. This summer must-have is perfect for covering up your favorite bathing suit or layering over a tank and cut-offs. I picked this item up a couple weeks ago and can't stop wearing it!

Now I couldn't mention denim cut-offs above and then not show you where to find the perfect ones, right? My favorite affordable option are these from Urban Outfitters.

4. The Perfect Mix and Match Skirt
I've recently re-discovered delias.com and realized that they have so many affordable and chic options for my summer wardrobe. This skirt particularly caught my eye because I can easily mix it with many of the tops I already own. Plus, polka dots are just so cute!
