Plus Size on a Budget – Camo Shorts Athleisure

A plus size camo shorts athleisure outfit idea for my “plus size on a budget series!” 

These two looks are a little loungewear, a little athleisure, and totally on a budget.

My “Disclaimer”

I want to prevent some anticipated feedback.  So please keep these things in mind:

  • “Budget” is relative.  Some people easily spend $300 on sunglasses, while other people allocate $300 for their annual clothing budget.
  • You may be able to find these items elsewhere for less.  These are just some “budget-friendly” finds I have come across.  And I typically don’t link to clearance items because they sell out and then people are disappointed.  Also, I have no way of linking to thrift stores, but obviously, if you want to check out your local thrift stores, I think that is a great idea!
  • Recycle & reuse.  As with all of my posts, I hope that you can use the pieces you already have in your wardrobe.  Additionally, I assume that you can reuse all of the pieces below in other combinations with things in your closet to create a variety of looks.  Meaning, I think it is unfair to judge the expense of one outfit as though that is the only way to wear the pieces.

Look 1 – Outfit Details

Simple knit camo shorts are paired with a black peplum tee.  So cute!  

Play with some 90s vibes with flatform sandals and round sunglasses

A crossbody straw bag with a geometric print adds more interest.

For jewelry, layered necklaces and a wrap bracelet add some boho vibes.  

And then add some trendy thick hoop earrings.

I wanted to mention that I recently purchased a lot of jewelry from the earrings’ brand, PAVOIfrom Amazon, and must say the quality is really great for the prices!

  1. Cute summer outfits, I love them! I can definitely see going for an outing like the zoo or camping in these fun little threads. I’ve been putting off snagging that top is turquoise for far too long too. A top that actually hides all my lumps and bumps so I’m not self-conscious is always a win!
