Good golly, it’s May!
And that means two exciting things:
- Summer is just around the corner.
- The Summer Style Challenge will be here in a few weeks!
For this month’s Pretty Fix, I’m sharing some sneak peek items from the summer style challenge as well as helping you get ready for summer 2016. If you haven’t joined me for my online style program the GYPO Style Challenge yet, summer is the perfect time to dive in. Not only will you get a shopping list to build an on-trend summer wardrobe but you’ll also get 21 days of outfit ideas to make getting dressed this summer a breeze. The best part? This challenge will have a bonus ten day summer vacation packing list. Be sure to join my mailing list to be the first to find out when registration opens.
For those of you who are new here, the Pretty Fix is a monthly feature at Get Your Pretty On that features my top five picks for the month that you can shop for on your own to stay in style…all at a price you’ll love. The idea for it was born out of frustration that some of you have had with other monthly box services that you feel “miss the mark” or are too pricey.
Each month, the Pretty Fix includes five items I personally recommend to stay on trend – all at a price you’re going to LOVE. While I like to keep things budget friendly, different price points are also included if you prefer a higher quality alternative.
Consider me your budget-minded personal shopper. Here’s your May Pretty Fix.
Embroidered tunics will be the piece fall in love with for summer 2016. It’s incredibly versatile – pair it up with some chambray shorts for a casual look, with white jeans and wedges for a summer date night or throw it over your bathing suit for an on-trend swim coverup. Shopping Options: 1/2/3/4
A classic pair of aviators works for all face shapes and will never go out of style. Try them in a brushed gold finish. Shopping Options: 1/2/3
This metallic canvas print tote comes in three colors and securely stores all of your beach or everyday essentials. Shopping Options: 1/2/3
I’m kind of obsessed with denim wedges for spring and summer. They go with everything and add a fun flare to your outfits. Shopping Options: 1/2/3/4
Coral shades can work for all skin tones. If you have cool tones to your skin, try a pinkish coral. Warm tones look best with orangey coral. This color makes your pedicure pop!

Oh and the best part? You can get every piece in the fix for around $100 total.
Consider me your budget-minded personal shopper. Here’s your March Pretty Fix.
MARCH PRETTY FIX TOTAL = $117.50
Spring Trend: Boho
The floppy hat is a boho basic that’s big for spring. It’s going to be great with everything from spring dresses to t-shirts and jeans. If wearing a hat feels like “too much” for every day, try one when you’re on spring break or when spending time out in the sun.
Spring Trend: Floral
A pretty floral scarf is an instant way to add some spring style to your outfit. Use the colors in your scarf for inspiration to create the rest of your outfit around it.
Spring Trend: Pastels
This pink nail polish is a go-with-everything neutral pastel that looks great on fingers and toes.
Spring Trend: Neutral Booties
If you don’t have a pair of neutral peep toe booties yet, RUN, don’t walk to get this pair. They are as soft as butter and the comfiest heels I’ve ever owned. They look great with skirts, dresses, cuffed jeans, flared jeans, you name it. This will be your most worn pair of shoes for spring, I promise!
Spring Trend: Tassels
Tassels are definitely having a moment. Try this easy trend with a tassel necklace that you’ll want to wear every day. Here’s a similar tassel necklace.

Each month, the Pretty Fix includes five affordable items that I personally recommend to stay on trend. This month features pieces to create a cute, casual Valentine’s outfit that’s a little bit French and a wee bit nautical.
Oh and the best part? This is one of my most budget friendly fixes ever coming in at just under $68 total!
Consider me your budget-minded personal shopper. Here’s your February Pretty Fix.
FEBRUARY PRETTY FIX TOTAL = $67.70
Don’t think red lipstick is for you? Think again! L’Oreal Paris has come up with shades of red that are perfect for everyone. Their Colour Riche Collection of Exclusive Reds includes shades that match up with the coloring of some of our favorite glamorous celebrities like Blake Lively, Julianne Moore, Eva Mendes, Zoe Saldana and Frieda Pinto. There’s sure to be a shade that works for you too. (Psst, February is the perfect month to add one to your pout.)
I have a cardigan similar to this and am amazed at how it transforms a simple t-shirt and jeans into something special. Just add bright flats and your outfit is done! P.S. The original cardi is now sold out but check out these three options: option one, option two, option three.
So soft and warm, this cashmere feel scarf in crimson red is like a Valentine’s Day hug for your neck.
These super cheap skinny jeans from Forever 21 have been a closet staple of mine for many years. I buy a couple of pairs a year and wear them out. They wear well, have incredible stretch and actually fit. Don’t knock them til you try them.
It’s all about the little details and the leopard lining in these flats makes them feel extra special.

Consider me your budget-minded personal shopper. Here’s your January Pretty Fix.
JANUARY PRETTY FIX TOTAL = $126.23
I know you’ve heard me gush over Fabletics many times before but I LOVE this brand. The quality is better than Lululemon and the pieces are every bit as cute. The best part? When you sign up, you get a full outfit starting at just $25. If the idea of a monthly membership scares you, you can skip months as often as you want (that’s what I do).
One of my goals is to stay better hydrated and drink more water this year. If downing plain water isn’t your thing, this bottle with a built in infuser makes it easy to make flavored water. Some of my favorite combos are cucumber with mint, watermelon with fresh rosemary and strawberries with lemon.
Getting adequate sleep is one of the healthiest things you can do for your body. If the sandman eludes you, try spritzing your pillow with this relaxing lavender spray before turning in for the night.
These Nike Flex Supreme Cross Trainers have been my most comfortable pair of athletic shoes that I’ve owned. They have just the right amount of cushion and support. Black and white goes with all of your athletic outfits.
My gift to kick off your 2016 right is a free copy of my eBook “Get Pretty, Kick Butt – The Moms’ Guide to Looking Your Best and Getting More Done”. It’s a super quick read full of ideas for scheduling your day, making yourself a priority and getting more done. It’s yours to download on Kindle for a limited time for free.

A glitzy tank is the perfect way to add a little glam to your holiday soirees. Pair it simply with jeans and a cardigan to dress it down or under a blazer with black pants and heels to dress it up.
A soft and cozy waterfall cardigan is an excellent companion to a sparkly tank. Or pair it up with your favorite lounge wear for an evening in by the fire.
A glittering mani/pedi is a must-have during the holiday season. Try this rich red with flecks of glimmer.
Add a little shimmer to any outfit with this elegant statement making bracelet.
