Budget Fab

Top row: Target romper, Eugenia Kim fedora, & The Carrie Diaries by Candace Bushnell, F21 dress
Bottom row: Target romper on model & a better pic of the fedora

Hello Fab Ones!!!! I wanted to share my recent little haul from Forever 21 and Target. I'm still very much unemployed and I'm very frugal with my purchasing.I have to absolutely LOVE something before I take the plunge and it has to be under $50. The romper was $19.99, the Eugenia Kim fedora was missing a price tag and it was the last one, I figured the cashier would find the price for me. When I tell you guys I lucked up, I lucked up!!!! Thanks to the cashier who was eager to get off work and did not feel like searching for the price, she rang it up for $4.99. Woo-hoo!!! Everyone knows about my Sex and The City obsession so I need to know Carrie Bradshaw from the beginning, plus I just need some lighthearted reading because classes resume next week and the yawn inducing reading begins *sigh*. The Carrie Diaries was $13.82

The Forever 21 dress was love at first sight and $19.80. I love the vibrant print and it has pockets. Dresses with pockets are amazing. I love them.

I have so many ideas on how to accessorize my new romper and dress. I'm taking the romper to a tailor to have the partial fold of the shorts stitched all the way around. I don't like how the stitching is only on the sides and the rest of the fold is left to hang.

I'm glad I was able to add a couple of new pieces to my spring/summer wardrobe and at such great prices. Now if I can just find those Cynthia Vincent for Target wedges all would be right in my fashion life...that is until I see the next cute must have item ;)

Till next time! Stay fabulous!!

A Life of Style: The $12.50 Dress

How cute is this dress? I love that it's so plain which allows for a variety of looks.

I found it while checking some of my favorite online shopping sites. Forever 21 rarely lets me down and since their quality has greatly improved over the years, I shop there on a regular basis. This adorable little frock is only $12.50, so I ordered two! When was the last time you got a dress for under $20?

A Life of Style: A Fabulous & Affordable Skinny Jean








I've been boycotting the skinny jean trend from day one but when I happened upon the Lindsey Skinny Jean on Forever21.com, I decided to throw caution to the wind and order a pair. Priced at a very low $12.50, my wallet won't take a hard hit if the jeans look horrible on me (please fashion Goddess make me look fabulous in them ;~)

Hopefully in a few days I can share with you guys that the jeans fit and look as good as they do in the picture. Stay tuned...
