As a full-time student, it’s imperative that I keep track of my spending and make sure that I have enough for my everyday expenses (#unilife). But summer is now ramping up, and a quick peek into my wardrobe tells me that I need some serious stock replenishment.
For students like myself, this year has been filled with early morning lectures, pesky group assignments and stressful exams. The semester is over now (finally) and what better way to celebrate and de-stress than with a good shopping spree courtesy of Cyber Monday sales.
At this point in my life, anything in big, shiny letters screaming sale, discounted, or bargain is music to my cash-strapped ears. So, if you’re on a budget and looking to spend on only the most valuable pieces, I've rounded up the best under $40 sale items from The Iconic, Reformation, Cotton On and more. Keep reading to see what I’ll be adding to cart as a post-exam treat.
