Prices

My hair was big earlier. Who knows why... Examples to follow.







{Dress: H&M, $5}
{Leggings: Target, $6}
{Boots: Belk, $35}
{Scarf: American Eagle, $10}
{Necklaces: American Eagle, gifts}
{Rings: Silpada, $45 for 5}

Something weird today- my rings are the most expensive thing I have on (and not really even that expensive all things considered.) I used to flat out refuse to buy anything that wasn't A) on super sale or B) really cheap. This led me to very much of a quantity vs. quality type of wardrobe. Don't get me wrong, I don't buy bad clothes, and I truly do love everything I wear. But now that I've amassed this large quantity driven closet, I'm starting to look at things with a bit more scrutiny than usual- and I'm starting to be willing to pay more for things I know will last (and sometimes splurge on things I just love.) Of course I'm still focused on finding great deals- thrifting! Woohoo! But don't be super surprised if every once and awhile you see an item that I bought for a little more money than normal.

Side note- I like showing the price of things because I get excited about good deals, and I like being honest about how much I paid for an outfit for your reference. I've never really gotten feedback about it before, so let me know- do you like seeing prices listed or are you not too fond of it?

  3. I like seeing the prices! It's encouraging to see other people put outfits together on a budget similar to mine and know that I can do it, too! It encourages me to be a better shopper. Love this outfit, too!

  6. Thanks for stopping by my blog earlier. :) That dress is so cute. Love it! I love how people show prices. I should really do it but I'm not good and writing down how much things are. Maybe that's something I'll start doing. Have a great day!

  7. I like seeing how much you paid for things -- I could never remember how much I paid for anything. I love the dash of color you added to this outfit with the pink scarf, lovely!
