OOTD: Black + Brown?!! Ex-act-ly... reckless and carefree, just like my attitude today!
Boots: Off Broadway
Dress: TJ Maxx
Scarf: YEP... Wal-Mart!
Purse: Target ($40 STEAL!!!)
Watch: Michael Kors
Bracelet: Lenny & Eva
Earrings: Francesca's
The total cost of this dress+scarf combo was somewhere around $35... AHHH-MAZING! Aside from my shoes and my watch (which was a b-day gift from my handsome boyfriend), you will probably never catch me wearing any individual piece of clothing that exceeds $50. It's so easy to LOOK expensive, very inexpensively. The trick is in the fabrics! I won't buy anything that feels cheap to the touch. Chances are, if it looks and feels flimsy, it will ruin after the first or second wash. Try to find pieces that have sturdy, structured fabrics to ensure that they look glamorous and won't tear up. There are SO many fun, sassy, classy, never-trashy options out there just waiting to be found!
Shopping Tip: Plan ahead! Have a few outfit ideas in mind before you hit the retail therapy session! This will help you avoid making excessive or unnecessary purchases. We've all had that tragic experience where you get home and excitedly unpack the results of what you thought was a successful shopping trip... only to find a bunch of random buys that don't make any sense. I usually save a few pictures of outfit ideas I've seen on Pinterest or Instagram to help steer me in the right direction :)
Mini... for the fourth day in a row... has been wearing her dog suit lol. I am SO thankful that my parents have helped me give her such a beautiful, adventurous and happy life. She is such a special little creature :) growing and changing so quickly right now I can barely keep up!
Meet my new puppy, Christopher Jo :)
