Ok, so I'm not going to pretend to be some fashionista, or the worlds most well-dressed woman, because that is far from the truth. Those who know me know that I would rather be in my sweatpants and a t-shirt any day of the week. Sweatpants to me, are like chocolate to milk; they aren't necessary, but they make things so much better!
Sweats don't have my whole heart. You see, I am a woman after all. I love to shop. I love shoes, handbags, accessories, cute tops, and dresses. Although I wear sweatpants much more than I should, I can't resist getting dolled up and wearing a nice outfit. Something I have realized is that I get more compliments this way. People always expect to see me dressed down, so when I dress up- it takes them by surprise and I get compliments the whole day long. (Tricky, I know.)
Let me also say that I work at a gym so it's perfectly acceptable to wear sweatpants to work. (Gotta love that one!) Today, though- today I decided to wear a cute outfit. I have on a nice pair of flair jeans, a long-sleeved grey shirt, with a white tank that has black and grey embellishments on it. It's a good looking outfit.
What makes this outfit even sweeter was the price. Now, usually I do not discuss my finances with people and I don't tell people what I spend on things, because I feel that those things are a private matter, however I feel that this is a time that I don't mind saying the amount I paid for this outfit considering it was super inexpensive.
My jeans I bought on a previous trip to TJMAXX: $20
Long-sleeved grey shirt (TJMAXX): $6.99
Embellished Tank (TJMAXX): $7.99
Total cost of the outfit (rounding up): $35!!!!
I will add pictures to this post later once I get done at work and dance tonight.
I guess my whole point in blogging about fashion is that you can look nice without breaking the bank or budget and I will help you know how to do that.
I will also post tutorials on how to sew things yourself for those of you who like to get your craft on. I know I do!
Have a great day today,
The Little Green Girl
