Helping women love what they wear on a budget

Affordable Fashion with Simple Addiction

April 11, 2018 by Katie Haller

 I love the idea of shopping at small local boutiques, but I’m usually turned off by the prices at most boutiques.  It’s not easy to find a small shop that sells affordable and fashionable clothes.  I recently discovered Simple Addiction, which is a small online boutique out of Utah.  I immediately fell in love with this store.  They have inexpensive prices with fashionable boutique items.


*This post is part of a collaboration with Simple Addiction.  Although I was gifted these clothes, all my opinions are 100%. 
While browsing through their site, I found cozy loungewear, a wide variety of leggings, trendy tops, and dresses, affordable jeans, and even fun accessories.  One thing that stood out to me at Simple Addiction was that they offered an outfit in a box.  You can buy an already put together outfit that includes 3-4 pieces to complete your look at a valued price.  I will talk more about the outfit in a box later, but first, let’s talk leggings. 
I love leggings, who doesn’t?  A good pair of black solid leggings are a necessity.  When I buy leggings, I look for soft, comfortable leggings that are made well.  I never like to pay more than $10 for leggings.  These black solid leggings from Simple Addiction are pretty much everything I look for in a pair of leggings.  They feel like I’m wearing a $30 pair of leggings, but these are only $8!!  They’re probably the softest leggings I’ve ever worn and the material is very strong.  I don’t have to worry about them being see-through or anything.  My usual Saturday outfit includes a pair of solid black leggings with a comfortable t-shirt or tunic and either a denim jacket or cardigan layered over it, just like the look below.

Next up, I want to talk about the Outfit in a Box from Simple Addiction.  I realize that not everyone out there enjoys putting together outfits the same way that I do.  Simple Addiction makes it easy for their costumers to dress by offering them already put together outfits at a valued price.  As I said earlier in the post, the outfit in a box comes with 3-4 pieces; A bottom, top, and a necklace.  Some outfits come with some sort of layering piece.  The price varies depending on what the outfit includes.  I picked out the Nicole Outfit in a Box.  It was only $30.  I was a little nervous to try out floral leggings, because I’m not big on prints on the bottom, but I am really loving these black and white floral leggings.  I feel like the leggings really make a statement with this simple knotted green top.  To complete this look, the outfit came with a silver scattered spike necklace.  If you wanted, you could even add a denim jacket to this look or a neutral-colored cardigan to add as a layering piece.

Happy Mother’s Day!! 💕 Today I am truly embracing this day and remembering how much I always wanted to be a mom! 

I recently came across a journal entry I wrote 10 years ago on Mother’s Day—right after my second miscarriage. I wrote that I was ready to be a mom, but I was so scared and worried about our future. I didn’t know when and if it would actually happen. 

One month later, I was pregnant with my son.

And now here I am, ten years later—tired, busy, deeply grateful, and fully embracing this season I once wanted so so bad! 

To every mom today—in the waiting, in the chaos, or missing the days that flew by—I see you. We are all in this together! 💕
