Fab Finds Under $50: Daily Outfit

Daily Outfit - 03/11/10

Today's Outfit Inspiration wasn't a hard one since it called for "Layer up a Dress" which is something I seemed to at least 60% of the time! I did originally intend to layer it up a bit more with a layer under and over the dress, but with our local warm temps opted for just two layers. Also, I really wanted to layer a button-up shirt over the dress like the inspiration picture, but ultimately my laziness and not wanting to iron won out and I grabbed this easy open front cardigan. At least I listened to my own advice and added a couple "pops" of color with the belt and scarf.

Cardi - Ross, $8 (Feb. 2010)
Dress - Thrifted (NWT for $90), $9 (Spring 2009)
Scarf - Thrifted, $1 (2009)
Necklace - Target, $15 (2008)
Belt - Michael Kors/TJ Maxx, clearance for $10 (Spring 2009)
Heels - Michael Kors/6pm.com, $55 (Dec. 2009)

Wicked Thrifty- Formerly The Thrifty Stylist said...: i love this dress and the yellow belt with this outfit. don't shoot the messenger though- i do think the scarf is a little busy at the neckline with the other pattern. i think it would be cuter on your wrist or something. i do like how it picks up the yellow so i wouldn't get rid of it altogether. just sayin' :D; March 11, 2010 3:10 PM
