Beautiful Bodysuits on a Budget

Why are bodysuits a must-have this season? There are too many reasons. Because high waists are in vogue, sleek bodysuits go perfectly with skirts, shorts and denim and save you the hassle of perfectly tucking in a shirt. Plus, some bodysuits can easily be taken into fall to heat up your cold-weather wardrobe. Whether you like a little peekaboo piece or a popping print, these bodysuits under $60 are as budget-friendly as they are beautiful.

High Neck Halter Bodysuit, $39

Sleek, black with a high neckline that will show off those gorgeous shoulders, this piece from ASOS can be dressed up for evening with a pencil skirt or down with denim shorts for weekend shenanigans.

NeoMax Bodysuit, $38

Add a party-rocking print to your everyday looks with this bold American Apparel bodysuit. Pair with a solid skirt or skinny jeans to let it do all the talking. Bonus: Those long sleeves can easily take you into fall with a vest or sleeveless trench!

Sweetheart Lace Bodysuit, $29.75

Nothing is more flirty than a little lace and this gorgeous lace bodysuit from Guess is romantic with a fresh, fierce color. This piece will also be right at home in your fall wardrobe with a midi skirt and booties.

Wrap Front Halter Neck Bodysuit, $21

Another stunning find from ASOS, this halter bodysuit features a wrapped front with a little keyhole to show just a tiny bit of skin. Balance the look with a maxi skirt and sandals for a beach-ready outfit that will turn heads.

Strappy Front Bodysuit, $20

Perhaps one of the most coveted shapes of the season is the strappy neckline, making this simple yet on-trend plus size bodysuit from boohoo.com a major score. Pair with high-waisted flaired trousers for a polished, modern-meets-retro look.

Floral Mesh Bodysuit, $58

Romantic yet edgy, this Nasty Gal mesh bodysuit features a floral accent that will cover you in all the right places. Go full ballerina with a tulle skirt and cute flats or simple with white skinny jeans and heels.

4 Summer Style Essentials for Guys

This summer, we’re getting ready to enjoy the sun and revamp our wardrobes with some of this season’s essential looks for guys. If you’re looking to beat the heat and start rocking your summer style, look no further, because we’ve put together your guide to this year’s summer menswear essentials. Of course, when you shop with Ebates discounts and coupon codes, you can get awesome deals on those essentials, keeping you looking fresh and your wallet happy.

Textured Short Sleeve Oxfords
When the weather is hot but you need something more than a tee, short sleeve oxfords are your saving grace. While you may associate them with the bespectacled nerd and pocket protected class of gentlemen, worry not. These short sleeved shirts are available in trendier styles. Check out the Cannon Half Sleeved Shirt in grey denim from All Saints. It’s perfect for layering and stepping up your look without overheating.

Exotic Print Shorts
While the past few years have been fairly reserved when it comes to men’s shorts, more and more guys are recognizing the power of print. Exotic print shorts are coming back in style this season in a big way, and you’re going to be seeing them all over. If you’re looking for some inspiration, try the Hiker print shorts from Gap in Paisley Blue or Green Floral. And use Gap coupons from Ebates to save money on your order!

The Edgier Take on the Boat Shoe
While your notion of the classic boat shoe might resemble something from the yacht club, this shoe category has gone through a contemporary revision in recent years. Designers like John Varvatos have edgier versions of the classic footwear that are worth checking out. We recommend the Schooner Boat Shoe for a versatile look that works from day to night and everything in between.

The Elevated Polo
While you can run into some not-so-great polos, they are a still a wardrobe essential for summertime when the weather gets hot. Go for a polo with a slimmer cut, a subtle pattern and a nice texture. The Mini-Floral Polo from Club Monaco is made with fine Japanese linen and it’s a great staple piece for your summer look.

So what are you waiting for? Upgrade your style this summer and save money while you’re at it!
