The $25 Wardrobe Challenge

I want to see how creative and thrifty you all can be.

The goal here is to only spend twenty five dollars on a complete outfit.

Yes $25 and that is it..

Here are the rules

A complete outfit consists of:

Shoes

Top

Bottom

Accessories (belt, necklace, handbag)

And if you are feeling super thrifty a jacket.

You may use one item from your already owned clothing to finish the look if you are having a hard time with finding all these items on the cheap..

Where can I get these things for that cheap??

Hit your thrift store,

Deseret Industries, Goodwill, Salvation Army to name a few

Scour the clearance racks at Macy's, Target, JCPenney etc.

Try Ross, TJ Maxx and others

Have a clothing swap with friends (get rid of stuff you and they don't want)

Look online Ebay has some great deals, as well as some of the places I blog about.

I want you to blog about it on your own blog and then tell us about it and send us a link to check it out!!

You may find how easy it is to have a new outfit, for not that much.

Think of how much Mother Earth will thank you for reusing items..

Think about how much your spouse will be shocked at how much money you DIDN'T spend.

Good Luck and Happy Hunting!

What Did I End Up Buying

$27.50! from Wet Seal.

I love the wide belt, the pencil skirt and the ruffle where the back slit would be.. I can wear so many different tops and shoes with this.. Classic and won't ever go out of style. A good investment for those who are frugal. This one will take you a long way.
Free Shipping Code to boot!

With only the above basics I picked out , you could have almost a zillion different outfits. Which pairing of the above items is your favorite item?? If you stick with a palette of 3 bold colors, you can mix and match it all and can't go wrong. If you bought this bunch today, it would cost you 220 dollars and some change. If you think about it, that is cheap, especially all the outfits you could get out of it.
