The Art of the $12 Outfit.

This is the kind of girl I am: When I was traveling last week, a girl came up to me at Jamba Juice in the airport and told me she liked my shoes.

My reply? “Thanks. They were only five dollars!”

Yes, that was my response to a stranger. I am obviously classy. (Do you also feel inclined to tell random people just how little you spent on an adorable piece of clothing? Let’s be friends.)

So when I realized that my casual, comfy, but still work appropriate outfit today cost me a mere twelve dollars, I knew I had to share.

I adore second-hand, consignment, and thrift stores. Not only are you getting an amazing deal, you’re recycling (or would it be reusing? I get confused about the 3 R’s).
