Summer White and Sage Green: A Chic, Affordable Outfit with a Hint of Fall

Summer white with sage green… now this is a colour combination that I can get behind!

I think wearing white in the summer is super chic. There is just something so fresh, clean and put together about a beautiful white outfit. Of course, My Friends, you can wear white in any season if you so choose. There are no rules in fashion, and I will forever stand by that!

Today’s outfit is mostly summer white with a beautiful pop of sage green, a little dark brown and, of course, some gold accessories thrown into the mix. It is casual, comfortable, affordable and, apparently, my first little step into thinking about September and fall fashion… even though it technically isn’t September yet.

My mind is already there, My Friends!

Summer Whites for an Easy, Chic Look

Let’s start with all of the beautiful white in today’s outfit!
My white denim jean shorts came from Temu, and I absolutely love a good pair of white shorts for the summer. They are easy to style and instantly make an outfit look fresh and bright.
I paired them with my classic white Vans sneakers, which I got from SoftMoc. You really cannot go wrong with a white sneaker. They work with shorts, jeans, dresses… basically everything!

To finish off the white pieces, I added my white denim jean jacket from Winners. A white denim jacket is such a versatile piece to have in your wardrobe and is perfect for those days when you want a little something extra without adding a lot of bulk.
Temu, SoftMoc and Winners all have beautiful styles, great selections and good quality. And the best part? You can find some really affordable pieces when you are working with a budget. You know me, My Friends… I love looking stylish, but I also love finding a good deal!

Adding My Favourite Sage Green

To break up all of that beautiful summer white, I added some sage green—which just happens to be one of my favourite colours!
You could absolutely add any colour that you love to an outfit like this. That is one of the things I love about starting with white. It gives you a beautiful blank canvas to play with.
My striped T-shirt came from Walmart, and it was only $9.00!

Yes… $9.00!

I was actually at Walmart last night, and they still had some remaining. So, if you like them, run… don’t walk! They are incredible quality for such a great price.
The stripes are sage green, white and dark brown, and I think the combination is so pretty. To me, it is giving a beautiful September colour palette. Soft greens, warm browns and white… it feels like that little transition between summer and fall.
Although it isn’t technically September yet, my mind is already thinking about fall and winter styles. Haha!

The Belt That Ties It All Together

My belt of choice today is this beautiful dark brown belt with a gold buckle from DHGate.
The dark brown pulls out the brown stripes in my T-shirt, while the gold buckle ties in perfectly with all of my gold jewellery.
Sometimes it is those little details that make an outfit feel more pulled together. The belt was a small addition, but it really helped connect all of the colours in today’s look.

Let’s Talk About the Jewellery!

My Vintage-Inspired Locket Necklace

Let’s start with my necklace!
This chain isn’t quite as chunky as some of my other chain styles. It is a little more delicate, and I thought it was perfect with a striped T-shirt.
The stripes are already making a statement, so I didn’t want to add a necklace that was too overpowering. Sometimes, you have to let one piece take centre stage!
This necklace has such an interesting detail too—the pendant is actually a locket where you can add a photo of a loved one.
How sweet is that?
It has such a beautiful vintage vibe to it, and I absolutely love that little touch. This necklace came from Temu.

My Jade Ring and Oura Ring

On my right hand, I am wearing this beautiful jade ring from Temu.
The green in this ring is so bright and beautiful that it really draws your attention. It is set in a gold band, which works perfectly with the gold accessories I have going on today.
On my left hand is the usual home of my Oura Ring, my health and fitness tracker.

The Bangles… Yes, the Same Ones!

By this point, you have probably memorized my bangles yourself! Haha!
But for those of you who are new here, the first three bangles came from a private seller named Pink, and the last two came from DHGate.
They have become such a regular part of my outfits because I just love the stacked look. I am definitely a more-is-more girl when it comes to jewellery!

My Olive Green Watch

My watch today is another beauty from DHGate.
It has a gorgeous rose-gold presidential-style band, a super stunning olive green dial and a sparkly bezel.
And My Friends… I love this dial so, so much!
The olive green works beautifully with the sage green in my T-shirt and helps carry that green colour story throughout the whole outfit.

The Bag: A Little Fall Sneaking In

My bag of choice today is this very pretty olive green woven vegan leather bag from Amazon.
It has the look, texture and feel of real suede, and it is just super pretty.
This bag definitely has a little more of a fall vibe to it, which makes complete sense considering where my mind is at right now. I am clearly already thinking about September, autumn colours and all of those beautiful fall outfits!
The olive green also works perfectly with the sage green T-shirt and adds a little extra depth to the outfit.

And Finally… My Green Sunnies!

And the final piece to today’s outfit puzzle is my sunglasses!
Is it really a surprise that I would choose green sunnies? Probably not!
These sunglasses from Temu have a gold arm, a green earpiece, a green frame and the most beautiful green lenses.
But honestly, My Friends, the colour isn’t even the best part.
These sunglasses are the most comfortable pair of sunnies I have ever put on in my whole life.
And for that fact alone, they have been pushed right to the very tippy top of my sunglasses collection!
They are comfortable, lightweight and beautiful, which is pretty much everything I could ask for in a pair of sunglasses.

My Final Thoughts on This Summer White and Sage Green Outfit

I absolutely love how today’s outfit came together.
The crisp summer white keeps everything looking fresh and chic, while the sage and olive greens add my favourite little pops of colour. The dark brown belt and stripes bring in a hint of those warm September tones, and the gold jewellery adds that finishing touch.
The best part is that this outfit was created with affordable finds from places like Temu, Walmart, Winners, SoftMoc, DHGate and Amazon.
You don’t have to spend a fortune to create an outfit that feels stylish and put together. Mix the pieces you love, add your favourite colours and wear whatever makes you feel good.
And remember, My Friends…

There are no rules in fashion. Wear the white. Wear the colour. Wear the outfit!
