Happy Affordable Friday! Once again, I am over the moon with how incredible this Affordable Friday is (I found my new favorite jeans)! There were so many pieces that blew me away when I got them, and I know they’re gonna blow you away as well! Let’s get into it.
Best Wide Leg Jeans! (That can be cuffed too!)
I always start my Affordable Fridays with my favorite outfit and this time, it’s definitely this one! You’re gonna see me wearing these jeans a lot through this post. I wanted to link them first because I am confident these will be the absolute star of this blog and I really want you to be able to get them before they sell out. They are Levi’s jeans, so flattering, and only $26! They are super high waisted which is a must for me, but also really stretchy so they’re comfortable. They have this little V in the back that makes them super flattering for your backside. If you wanna see them in video, go to my stories today, because oh my gosh, they are the best! In my stories, you can see me wearing them without cuffing them. You can wear them both ways.
1. JEANS | 2. TOP | 3. COGNAC MULES
I’m normally a size 4/6. The 4’s felt just a tiny bit big on me when I got them but after I washed them, they fit a lot better. However, I also got the jeans in a size down size 2, and they fit perfectly too. Just give it a little bit more of a fitted look instead of a looser look. So I kept both the size 2 and 4. So I would say if you’re in-between sizes, 1000% get the smaller one and I’d also size down one whole size m all together. The great thing about Walmart is if they don’t fit for whatever reason it’s so easy to return. So you might as well get two sizes to see which one you like best. Just know they’re stretchy so you can definitely go down in these.
$19 White Blouse
In this look, I’m wearing the jeans with this $19 top. It comes with a little white tank top to wear underneath if you want to because it’s got some lace details in it. But I decided not to wear the tank top underneath just because I like to wear it just as it is, but since it comes with it you have both options -just FYI. I think this is so beautiful and perfect to wear to spring. It’s nice enough that it looks dressy with a pair of jeans, but if you need to dress it up even more, you could wear it with a pair of slacks. I love love love love it! It comes in sizes XS to 3XL and is also available in purple if white isn’t your thing.
Chic Expensive Looking Sweater that’s Under $17
This next look is an absolute favorite as well! I’m wearing the same jeans that I talked about above. But paired them with the $16.98 sweater. As you’ll see in these photos, I got the sweater both in navy and a neutral color, and both are beautiful! I honestly love both so much and I can’t decide which one I like better. The material is crazy soft and I swear it looks like a $150 sweater. I’m wearing a size small which is my normal size. But if you want more fitted look, I think you could even size down. However, I like the looser look in my normal size. Check out the other reviews as well.
1. NEUTRAL SWEATER | 2. NAVY SWEATER | 3. JEANS | 4. COGNAC MULES | 5. SNEAKERS
With the navy top I’m wearing these cognac slip on mules. I’ve had these for about seven months now I believe. They sold out when I first got them and posted about them. I know because my friend Madi text me bummed that they sold out, so I’m so glad they’re back in stock! Then, with the neutral top I’m just wearing a pair of $10 white sneakers.

Fave White Tee
Sticking with the same jeans once again, I wanted to show you guys one of my absolute favorite white t-shirts. I have three of them! With any white t-shirt, they tend to get a little dingy over time, so I wanted to buy a fresh one. Which I probably do every 6 to 8 months or so, which is totally doable when they’re only $8! When I give them a good bleach they brighten right back up, but I got another one anyway cause I love it so much! You guys know how much I wear white t-shirts. I have both size medium and small in the shirt and I love the fit of both.
1. WHITE TEE | 2. JEANS | 3. SNEAKERS | 4. MOLLY’S RAINBOW JEANS | 5. MOLLY’S TOP
I can’t not link Molly’s super cute outfit! She saw these rainbow jeans when we were shopping in Walmart and had to have them. I just think they are something a little special and different for kiddos. Then I’ll link her top as well. Her boots are also from Walmart, but we’ve had them for a couple years now since when I bought them, I bought them too big. So I don’t think they’re available anymore.

The “Leggings” of Dresses
Another look Molly wanted to share! I’ll link her cute little dress she’s wearing in these pictures below. She loves it. And then my dress is truly the leggings of dresses. Meaning the most comfortable thing you could possibly put on this dress! The material is so so so soft and I love the tie around the waist so it fits everyone’s different shapes. This pink one is so cute with white sneakers and it is a great transition to spring. It’s available in size small to 3XL.
1. MY DRESS | 2. SNEAKERS | 3. MOLLY’S DRESS
It’s also available in this taupe color. This one I thought was fun to pair with a pair of brown over the knee boots, but you could also easily put a cardigan over this to wear in the colder months to transition them into spring. It’s just a really comfortable dress. I also think this top one would be so cute with black tights and sneakers.
A Chic LBD That is Classic
Sticking with dresses, this black one is insanely beautiful! Can you believe it’s under $20! It’s available in sizes XS to XXXL. I love it and so does everyone who’s reviewed it, as it has all five star ratings on Walmart website. I’m 5’7 but someone reviewed it who is 5’4 and loves it just as much! I have it dressed up with a pair of heels here, but you could totally wear it with a pair of sneakers and a jean jacket to dress it down. Check out the other prints and colors it comes in! When you wear this dress, especially in the black, you’ll feel like you’re wearing something that cost over $100 even though you’re spending under $20. I also got it in the blue print, but I ended up returning that one because I honestly just didn’t love it as much as the black.
Comfy Looks
Okay, back to a couple comfy things! I’m so bummed that the black-and-white version of this top is starting to sell out in a few sizes. It’s still available in four different sizes, so check quick to see if yours is still available. It must be selling out fast because I literally checked this last night, and it was fully in stock. I love love love the black-and-white version with a pair of leggings and sneakers. It also comes in all black, which would look so cute as well and you could add some contrast with like a neutral color purse or crossbody bag. It has good length to it so it’ll cover your butt in leggings. I recommend getting your normal size even for a little oversize fit. Don’t size up because it will be too big. My leggings are on sale for a 3-pack for less than $18! So that’s less than $6 per pair which is so amazing.
1. BLACK-AND-WHITE COWL NECK SWEATSHIRT | 2. LEGGINGS | 3. SNEAKERS
Then I also got it in this neutral color that I think looks so cute with the $26 Levi’s jeans I’ve been talking about in this post and a pair of white sneakers. I’m just a big fan of a casual that you can throw on and still feel cute in.

Possible Vacay Looks
I also wanted to bring back this navy top from the last Affordable Friday. If you already have it, then you are halfway done with having this entire look! I hope you guys did buy it when I blogged about it last week because it is one of my absolute favorites. If you haven’t gotten it yet, it’s still available in five different sizes, so snag it while you can in this navy color! It’s only $16.98 and the fit is so good and looks so expensive.
1. NAVY TOP | 2. LINEN BLEND PANTS | 3. SANDALS
In this outfit, I paired it with these $19.98 linen blend pants. I highly recommend sizing down in these pants! I got the size small (4/6) originally and they were too big to wear at the small part of my waist, which is where these hit me. If you’re really tall you could pull them down to your hips, but I highly recommend sizing down in these. So the extra small actually worked better for me, which I never usually wear an extra small. But I just think these pants look so chic with this navy blue top. It’s a perfect vacation look but I also just think this is a really cool California casual look as well. I love it.
I’m wearing it with these Time and Tru sandals that I got last year and still love.
And then lastly, I wanted to show you the same shirt, but in pink! This one is also starting to sell out quickly, so snag it ASAP! I’m just wearing it with my super cute $24 bathing suit here. I’ll also link the bathing suit, which is true to size and completely covers your bum, which I know is really important to a lot of people. It’s a little on the short side for an actual cover-up, but I ordered these white pants to wear with it that are on sale for $12.80. They just arrived in the mail and I didn’t have a chance to take a picture with them yet, but I plan on wearing them with the pink button up when we go on our spring break this March! Such a cute Vacay look!

Have a wonderful week!
Okay, that’s it for me. I’m obsessed with this Affordable Friday and I hope you guys are too! I just cannot get over the pieces this time around. Especially the jeans because they are legit one of my absolute favorite pairs of jeans ever! Seriously, make sure you read the reviews on them and get them ASAP!
I like the bathing suit. You have lost so much weight Ali. Look so different.
