Thrifty Shopping.

OK so Saturday, when i was suppose to be shopping for my prom dress, some kind of way me and my mom ended up at this thrift store near my home. It is a very common one called "Family Thrift Center," and i found three VERY CUTE things that I wanted to share with you!


The first, and my FAVORITE thing is this adorable Ralph Lauren Blazer. As you all know Ralph Lauren is a very expensive brand, and there Blazers usually run around $120 and up. I found this wonderful find for a measly $7.57. Say it with me now, its a certified STEAL!


Then I found this adorable black and white stripped Blazer. I have been DYING for a white blazer! They are so cute and in for the spring! I was looking online at some and the one at Macy's I was eyeing was $58. This one was just $7.57. ;-)



Last but not least, I headed over to the purses and found this small cute orange bag. I simply LOVE it! Its perfect for spring because you can throw it on with an outfit and it adds a pop of color! I cant wait to wear this one!


With a total of $24.58 I was pretty content with myself. I had spent less than the $25 limit i had set for myself and got some AWESOME finds! I can not wait to show you all how i will incorporate them into my outfits. I have to take them to the dry cleaners first (because i haven't yet. I wanted to show you them all before first and then after.) Then I should be wearing them sometime next week. So keep checking back!

It's About ..

Let's just face it, in some way shape or form clothes make a huge impact on your life. No, I’m not saying the clothes make the person, but they do help build confidence, self-esteem, and just happiness with you. Every woman knows that when you’re in those killer heels, beautiful dress, and dazzling accessories you feel simply INVINCABLE! And who wouldn't want to feel like that all the time? But most of us (me included) can’t afford the luxury of shopping for these outfits all the time. As much as we would love to look like the celebrities, the fashion gurus on YouTube and the rich kids who spend insane amount of money on clothing, our budget can’t afford it! That’s where this blog comes in! I will show you that YES! You can be fab. On a budget! YES! You can find things IN YOUR CLOSET that can be still be considered "fashionable." Why spend loads of money, when you can shop for less. And you know what they say, after all It Is About The Clothes right?!
