It's here! The Valentine's Day edition of Budget Babe! <cue applause> Mostly girlie with a few tough pieces and one inspired V Day dress...just because. All 10 items are under $50 and I'm so excited. The internets are starting to lean towards resort wear, pastels, laser cut outs and frilly dresses. Spring...is that you?

Read MoreI'm back with another Ellie Kai post - lucky you. This time with THE sweater dress every girl should own.

Yeah...so there's that!
Read MoreYep, the turtleneck is back. I told you I loved it - now you know I wasn't kidding. It's the most versatile winter piece in my closet these days because...It's FRIGID in Chicago. I mean FREEZING. BITTER COLD. SNOT FREEZES IN YOUR NOSE.
Now that we have that covered...
Read MoreLate post today! Admittedly my husband and I got wrapped up in last night's Golden Globes...and a bottle of champagne. Oops. So many pretty dresses not to mention a handful of movies I must see ASAP! You feel me?
