August can be a tough month for shopping, for me at least. Fall stuff is everywhere, but since it’s still so hot out I have a hard time getting too excited about cool-weather gear. However, I did find some fun things for me, and even more for Jona this month. Here’s what I bought.
{my clothing budget: August 2016}
Gap – Open Front Cardigan in Oatmeal Heather: $16 (40% off promotion) – worn here
Target – Mossimo Lina Gladiator Sandals in Gold: $14 (on clearance; as seen on Instagram here)
6pm.com – New Balance WL 555 in Icarus: $40 (actually had to exchange for a size larger, so crossing my fingers they fit!)
Total spent: $70
I also partnered with Pink Blush Maternity this month and received a dress from them in exchange for a blog post. See my post here.
Pink Blush Maternity Teal Floral Draped Maternity / Nursing Dress (originally $73, now on sale for $49)
I didn’t buy a lot this month, although this post is somewhat deceiving as I did just place a good-sized ThredUp order last week. However, since I wrote this before it arrived, I will save it for next month. I’m hoping that everything in my cardigan-heavy order works out!

I didn’t buy anything for Jona last month, but I certainly made up for it this month! The only thing he truly needed was pajamas, but clearly I couldn’t stop there. Once again I succumbed to a 40% off sale at Gap and Old Navy (that plaid shirt though! I die!) and also made a random trip to Burlington Coat Factory and scored some deals. The Royals hat was for his birthday; just like his dad Jona loves to wear hats, so it was only fitting he sport a Royals one for his Royals-themed birthday party.
What did you buy this month?
