Broke Gal with Expensive Taste

My biggest flaw is my expensive taste in fashion but not so expensive pockets.

So let's talk... It can be very frustrating when you come across a really cute shirt, dress, shoes, etc. but the price isn't always in your range. It happens to me all the time, I'm the kind of "High-end" fashion type of girl always drooling over a gown off of the Balmain runway. I always seem to find myself on the Givenchy website or Balmain Paris website dreaming. I think it's good to spoil yourself once in a while, so why not go out and buy that beautiful bag you've been listing over. If you think you can't buy cute clothes for cheap, I'm going to suggest you to think again. Okay, now it's time to talk about my favorite word "cheap" haha. Omg, from the thrift store to Urban outfitters, H&M, and Zara...all four stores have different unique styles of clothing. I'm proud to say I love the thrift store..YEAH I SAID IT! See, I'm the type of person that can make a fifteen dollar outfit look like a three hundred dollar outfit. My advice is to mix the low end with the high end, always remember that! Urban outfitters, H&M and Zara are the perfect local and convenient places for this inspired look. Urban Outfitters has a range of low price clothing to high end pricing, which is perfect for the look you're trying to achieve. H&m is also a perfect place they have low end pricing and then high end pricing which will take place once the Alexander Wang collaboration debuts in the 2015. Also, Zara and Mango (online store) both giving off that low end fashion meets high end vibe, their collection explains it all. This concludes my article, always be opened to taking risks in fashion, it's okay to step out of your comfort zone every now and then. Don't do fashion, be Fashion. “Don't dress to kill, dress to survive.” - Karl Lagerfield
