Get It!: Skip Lunch Out ($25-$50)


This week, we'll go up in price just a tad to grasp one of summer's most essential staples within our reach.

The LL Bean Boat and Tote has long been a part of my life (and I am guessing many of yours as well) during the warm weather months, and it holds a special place in my heart. LL Bean recently introduced the Heritage Boat and Tote, a lovely cream-colored confection, with leather-trimmed handles, brass rivets and the ever-adored monogramming option. Monogram yours in simple black, cream, white or chocolate brown for a classic that will last you for years.

Total cost: $45 (with monogram).

Get It!: On the Cheap ($25 and under)


Starting a new regular installment to tell you what to get, where and how much. The first edition is for you lingering recessionistas.

Want to look like a million bucks for only $25? Buy yourself (or your lady) one of Chanel's new Robertson Boulevard-inspired polishes and make those toes the life of the party this summer!
