What Can You Buy For Under $100 At Evie Lou Boutique? (Hint: A Lot!)

October 27, 2020 • 8 Comments

cashmere

I’ve been doing a lot of shopping lately, as usual, so I decided I needed to look for some affordable pieces to add to my wardrobe. I also want to support small businesses. Enter Evie Lou, an amazing boutique located in Tremont, Ohio with their new sister boutique, ELO, in Oberlin and an extensive online site.

I was looking for clothes under $100 and found so many great pieces that I loved and knew I could style with what I already have in my closet. 

drawstring-pants-1

These pants are incredible. They’re a great alternative to sweatpants, but seriously just as comfortable. I love the sequin and metallic detail on the left leg along with words of inspiration, but all done subtly. I paired these pants with a long sleeve black bodysuit, but you could also wear a short or long sleeve t-shirt and as it gets colder add a cozy sweater. I love how this looks with a leather jacket, but a jean jacket will work just as well. A chunky heel bootie suited my mood today, but I can also see this looking great with combat boots or sneakers. In the summer I’ll wear the pants with a t-shirt or tank top and a pair of sandals. These pants are year round fun!!

Another alternative to sweatpants, these drawstring pants have a cool faux zipper down the side of each leg. I love these pants with a sweater and high tops, and I’m ready to run errands or hang out on my spot on the couch. They’re super comfy, like the pants above. I’ll also wear them with sandals and a tank top in the warmer weather.

polka-dot-dress

This dress is so me! I love the asymmetrical hemline, cowl neck, and it has pockets!! I love pockets! Since it’s getting a little cooler now I put a long sleeve shirt underneath, but come spring I won’t need one. As it get even colder I’ll add a pair of tights with my booties. This is a great dress to wear with both boots or sneakers. The colors of the dress also make me happy as I am trying to add some color to my wardrobe, but I really don’t want to give up black.

Current-Air-dress

I love wearing a feminine dress with combat boots and a leather jacket, and this midi dress is ideal for this pairing. That being said, this dress will also look perfect with a pair of heels for a night out. The rich emerald color and flowy skirt are just beautiful. I felt like twirling in this dress!

cashmere-poncho

Cashmere is always good and this poncho, in a beautiful winter moss color, is perfection. As you can see, it is gorgeous with a pair of jeans or over a dress. What I love about this poncho is that you can make it as dressy or casual as you choose depending on what you pair it with. It is also available in other colors. You’ll wear this so often, it will definitely be the perfect addition to your wardrobe.

cashmere-ruana
flannel-shirt-1

I am mad for this plaid trucker shirt/jacket because it’s really cute, the colors are pretty, and it can be worn so many ways. I chose to wear it as a jacket over a t-shirt and jeans with a pair of combat boots and then over a dress with a pair of booties. I could also substitute a pair of sneakers for the boots. While I love how this looks as a jacket, I will also wear it as a shirt with a pair of jeans or a skirt. This is a great alternative to a traditional flannel shirt.

Evie-Lou-sweater-top

This sweater top is a mix consisting of a sweater body with beautiful woven sleeves. While I paired this faux wrap top with jeans, it would also look great with a skirt or trousers. This  top is one that could be worn in every season. It would also look cute with a pair of shorts on a cool summer night. What could be better than something you can wear year round?!

cropped-hoodie

Looking for the perfect top to wear when running errands? Well, this is it! I’m wearing a size medium in this cropped tie dye hoodie. The brown and pink colors are simply beautiful. Throw on a pair of sneakers and jeans and you’re ready to go. This hoodie is so soft and comfy you’ll never want to take it off! 

tie-dye-hoodie

Happy 10th anniversary to Evie Lou! With all the beautiful clothing and accessories they sell, at every price point, it’s easy to see why they have been around for 10 years and how they’re able to expand with a new store!

Remember, each of these items costs under $100 and can be worn in so many ways. If you’re in the area, stop in and see what has made Evie Lou such a great place to shop for the past 10 years. If not, remember, they are also online and there’s so much to choose from on their website! 

Happy Shopping! xo

Spring is springing! It’s so beautiful to see al Spring is springing! It’s so beautiful to see all the trees blooming and the colors of the flowers are so stunning! Spring is such a time of hope and renewal and after the year we’ve had, much needed!  Now that I’m vaccinated and can get out I’m so excited to start wearing my clothes again. It’s like everything in my closet is brand new having worn nothing but sweats most of the year! Since we never know what the weather will be like here (the saying is “If you don’t like the weather in Cleveland, wait 5 minutes! 😂) I start out the day in layers. Swipe to see how I layered my @grayson button up over a jumpsuit. The fit on these button ups is amazing and they’re so comfortable. Use the code MICHELELEE for $25 off your full price order. I love the navy, but there are so many colors and patterns to choose from!  Hoping your day is filled with flowers, sunshine, and love.  🌺  ☀️  💕  ☀️  🌺  #clothesthatdontboreme #spring #springflowers #springblooms #grayson #gifted #springishere #springfashion #hope #flowers #sunshine #springclothes #wearyourwardrobe #buttonup #buttonupshirt #dresscomfy #wearwhatyoulove #dressinlayers #springdressing #jumpsuit #lifeisgood
