Last week was pretty big for me. I made my second appearance on the Today Show {my first appearance is here}.
My latest appearance was all about fashionable finds under $50. I picked my favorite pieces from department stores that packed major punch without putting a strain on your wallet.
If you missed the live segment, check out the video below as well as some behind the scenes shots and details on what I wore.
As soon as I arrived at Studio 1A, it was time for makeup and before I knew it, an NBC page told me I had six minutes to get dressed and head upstairs. I stepped in to my clothes and narrowed down my accessories.

frugal finds nyc, affordable jewelry
Liz from Frugal Finds NYC was kind enough to loan me some accessories and I went with the Cuban Link 5 Chain Tier necklace {$29.99}, YSL-inspired Somewhere Over the Rainbow ring {$12.99, available in black, pink, white and green} and Givenchy inspired bangle {$15} and Beaded Wrist Drama bracelets {$13.99}. The jewelry looked great when paired with my outfit and lime green “I’m Nobody’s Housewife” polish from LiSi Cosmetics.

I loved this pair of floral, brocade shorts from Kohl’s {buy here} so much, that I decided to rock them myself. I paired them with a thrifted Banana Republic v-neck and pumps from Target. And my friend and awesome model Metanoya {check out her site Globetrotting Stiletto} closed out the segment in a head turning H&M dress.
