    Love the necklace!!!

    I just bought 5 scarves from Charlotte Russe, and I've worn them recently and love them. They are on sale right now for about 8 dollars!

    Here's the seller: http://www.etsy.com/shop/elizabethke...f=pr_shop_more some of her prices seem to have gone up, but she's still less expensive than some of the other places out there with similar items. I think I paid $50 for a belt that was going for over $120 at GH.

    I feel the same way. I do usually always purchase my cami's from there, and I usually pay 5.00 or less for each. I usually only wear cami's under things, so I'd like to save there and splurge on the cardigan or sheer top than on a 20.00 cami.
    Forever 21 is also a good place to shop for cheaper accessories or cami's.

    There are a couple of scarves here if you don't see anything on Charlotte Russe

    Thank you! And thanks everyone for all the thoughts on accessories.

    Here is the blazer for the suit I ordered in navy

    And I ordered this 3/4 sleeve blazer in the tan color:

    I also ordered the trousers to go with those blazers. All of these pieces are machine washable, which is a huge bonus in my book as dry cleaning is so expensive.

    I also ordered this dress in the vintage blue for $19.99 off the clearance page:

    I am hoping it will work with a cardigan or blazer for Fridays at work during our warm fall, but at that price if it is cute i will probably just keep it even if it is too casual for work. It is also machine washable.

    ETA. I guess these are a bit high for a budget thread? But I thought the prices were pretty good for suits, especially the tan one. And on the dress, of course.
    Just want to update as my order came today. The suits fit perfectly except the trousers need to be hemmed. I will have the tan one hemmed for flats as it is comparatively casual. The navy one I will have hemmed for heels. Dh suggested maybe cuffs? Any thoughts?

    The navy suit is quite heavy. I won't be able to wear it for a couple of months probably as fall is sunny and warm here. But, it is nice and a great price. The jacket has some nice details in the back without looking trendy. This would be an awesome suit for winter public transit commutes, especially as it is machine washable. It is a very dark navy.

    The tan suit, by contrast, is lightweight. The jacket has only the sleeves lined. And the pants are unlined. It is also machine washable. It will be an awesome fall outfit for me.

    The dress is quite nice, especially for the money. I love the colors and the fabric is nice. It is lined in a cotton fabric, which feels nice against skin and seems like it would be cooler than the usual silky stuff. It is a nice below the knee length on me (I am 5'7"). The neckline is a smidge low for a conservative work place, IMO. Dh says it is good with a blazer or sweater over it. I would keep it just as a nice going out to brunch dress regardless at the price I paid ($19.99).

    All together I am really pleased with my purchases.

    Let me know if you have questions. I think EB is still having the 25 percent off if you order jeans or pants.
