“Dear Summer, I Know You Gon’ Miss Me…”

"Dear Summer, I Know You Gon' Miss Me..."
The Jigga Man’s timeless classic, “Dear Summer”, gave us the best inspiration to do our annual summer lookbook, as we bid adieu to the season full of fun, relaxation, barbecues, good weather and of course, summer steez.  Though we gotta part ways, summer gets love from us via a formal and fitting farewell through a lookbook that highlights our favorite looks during the season.  What’s more, we did all this ballin’ on a budget.  That’s right, we were mindful of our wallets here, as each outfit pictured was under $50.00.  Sounds damn near impossible right?  Nah, if we could do it, we pass on the abilities to you.  So hopefully you keep all in mind and get some inspo next summer season for some frugal fits and prove that you can keep stylin’ on ’em even if you’re a part-time member of Broke Phi Broke.

I’m done for now, so one for now
Possibly forever, we had fun together
But like all good things, we must come to an end
Please show the same love to my friends,
Dear Summer…
