They key to an under 100 outfit is the “thrifted” portion.  As hard as I try, it’s near impossible to get an entire outfit under 100 dollars without including something that is a hand-me-down or bought vintage (cheap vintage that is!).  And the toughest part for me in keeping it under budget is the shoes.  SO…this is an under $100 look…minus the shoes.  Are we ok with that!? Hope so. haha.

I have had a new fascination with midi length skirts.  So when I spotted this one at the thrift store, I was sold at first sight.  I love the length and the nautical feel.  I think it’s a good transition piece into Fall. What are some of your favorite vintage/thrift shops….or just places for affordable fashion?  There are a few local thrift shops I like to check out from time to time, but San Diego is not the best when it comes to vintage.  I remember living in LA, there was a thrift shop at every corner it seemed.  I do miss that about living there!

….check back tomorrow!  Fun giveaway coming atcha!

I’ve decided to add a new feature here called UNDER $100.  It’s a spin off of my usual lookbook posts, only all of these outfits will be compiled of clothes that together are $100 dollars or less! Sound fun!?  I’ve realized it’s not easy to do considering the price of clothes these days.  But I’ve been trying to be more thoughtful in my purchases….and fashion on a budget is not as bad as it’s cracked up to be!  Hopefully this feature can serve as a bit of inspiration to looking cute without breaking the bank. That’s the goal anyway, right!?

I did an audible gasp in the middle of Target when I spotted these floral printed pants!  They were so close to this pair of Current/Elliott printed denim I had seen for nearly 8 times the price! SCORE!  22 bucks….i’ll take em.  There was also a colored version I might have loved even more, only they didn’t have my size.  You can bet i’ll be going back for a possible re-stock.  And to think, all I really needed was baby powder and batteries. ha.  I suggest you head over to your local Target to see if any of these gems are still available!  I got my mint bag from ALDO.  They’ve got some pretty great (cheap!) handbag options.  I love this one because it’s big enough to use as a diaper bag too.  Always a bonus!  Links to all the other stuff is above!
