Champagne Taste vs. Beer Budget
^^^Whoa I really can’t believe I just said that! Where did the last month year go?! Seriously, Christmas is less than 3 months away!
October is one of my favorite months. It’s the first full month of fall, the leaves are officially turning, and it’s full on pumpkin-flavored-everything season!
However, we still get days that reach the low 80s for a few more weeks so I can’t put away all of the summer clothes just yet. But gosh darn, I will pretend it’s 60 degrees anyway. Which is what inspired the outfit for today’s post. It’s great for those chilly mornings that turn into warm afternoons.
I love these 3/4-length sleeve shirts. They are comfy yet cute, and come in a bazillion colors. I picked 2 up at the LOFT outlet a couple of months ago, and then we were back there a few weeks ago and I picked up a couple more. I like that I can dress them up for work too.
The jeans are from LOFT as well. Surprise, surprise! They are so incredibly comfortable! I purchased them when they were running a sale for $20 off all jeans. I wanted a pair of flair leg jeans and these were perfect.
And I am obsessed with the TOMS wedges. Zulily was having a sale a few weeks ago and I just couldn’t resist them. I’ve started picking out outfits based on whether they go with the wedges.
I found the purse at the Kate Spade outlet in Myrtle Beach (which is also where the LOFT outlet was). I was hoping to find a grey or navy purse, and ended up coming out with this one. I fell in love with the color and thought it was perfect for fall.
The final touch for the outfit was the scarf, which I got on clearance at Old Navy for $4.
Have you noticed that nothing I buy is full-price? This is how I deal with having a “champagne taste on a beer budget.”
