My last outfit and conclusions from my little documentation of outfits

8/31/12:

Dress: $13.00 at Forever 21
Chambray Shirt/Vest: $25.00 H&M
Necklace: Gift
Sandals: $30.00 at Gap
Total: $68.00
(bag is Rebecca Minkoff MAC in Teal)

Total conclusions:
-I have too much clothing, yet I wear the same thing over and over. This experiment resulted in some bags of donated clothing which makes me happy.
-I need more sandals.
-I am the worst accessorizer. Ever.
-I need to spend more time on my outfits.
-I never wear 9/10 of my shoes. Need to work on that.

This was a fun experiment. Do it!

So, here are my outfits for the past 2 days. Pretty similar, but that's ok

8/29/12:

Dress: $13.50 Buffalo Exchange
Vest: $10 Walter by Walter Baker @ Loehmann's (one of my favorite brands!)
Sandals: $20 Dolce Vita @ Amazon
Total: $43.50.


8/30/12:

Dress: $15 Free People Slip from Saks Off 5th
Slip: Free People (from a Caftan Dress a few seasons ago-didn't like the dress, but held on to the slip)
Vest: $10 Walter by Walter Baker @ Loehmann's (one of my favorite brands!)
Sandals: $20 Dolce Vita @ Amazon
Necklace: Birthday Gift from friend
Total: $45.00

The outfits look really, really similar here. I didn't have the vest on today at first, but the FP Slip looked a little naked and I don't like spaghetti straps with nothing over it (hello bra straps). The bag I wore with both outfits is a Rebecca Minkoff MAC in Teal. It doesn't make the price cut. But it's possible the best leather on any bag I own. And I did purchase it at a discount...

Here is today's outfit. 8/28:

Jumper: $10 at TJ Maxx. Love jumpers with pockets.
Belt: Free with a different dress
Bag: $55 Rebecca Minkoff MAC at Buffalo Exchange NYC
Sandals: $20 Steve Madden @ TJ Maxx.
Total: $30.00
Total with bag: $85.00
