Hi everyone, welcome to June! Carolyn here from The Daily Obsession and you’ll know if you read my site that I really love fashion. For me, May was very  Confessions of a Shopaholic style where I contemplated selling my old Louboutins in order to fund two new pairs and eBaying my Prada purse since I accidentally purchased a Tod’s overnight bag from a sale I wasn’t even supposed to go to.

But June..June is a new month with a fresh budget, but since I overdid it a little last month, I went deal hunting on Manhattanite to find pieces for my summer wardrobe.  I thought I’d be stuck to sorting through winter coats in the sale section, but I actually scored some really great, warm weather finds at prices that didn’t leave me feeling like I needed to sell half my closet to pay for it.  Let me know what you think about my picks below!

Gypsy 05 Organic Maxi Dress in Canteloupe

Maxi dresses are still hot this summer and I love this easy, flattering shape and sunny color.  Plus it’s only $70 and made from 100% organic cotton.

Sweetees Cinnamon Tube Dress

This dress is so cute for going out on a summer evening, weekend brunch or even the office when paired with a cotton blazer. I love the longer length which makes it a little bit dressier.  It’s incredibly versatile and well priced at only $115.50.

Harkham Jersey Dress

For a sexy night out, I love this lightweight LBD by Harkham which comes with an authentic removable leather belt. Priced at only $131, that’s cheaper than just buying a belt at a lot of other places!

Lauren Conrad Julie Swiss Dot Jumper

I’m actually dying for a cute little jumper but it’s hard to find one that won’t have those not in the fashion-know go, “what are you wearing?” But this black number from Lauren Conrad is so cute no one would question your outfit! Plus, it’s 50% off, just in time for the summer!

Sweetees Adisa Dress

This Sweetees dress is appropraite for a beach wedding to a city dinner and anything in between. Wear it with dangly earrings or a long necklace for something really feminine and sophisticated or belt it with one of the 2 removable belts from above picks for a whole new look.  You really can’t go wrong because it’s from my favorite section- the 70% off rack and clocks in at only $43.

Happy shopping!
