Howdy, Partna

I created today's Thrifty Thursday post with a little help from our friends down south.  I was inspired by the gorgeous scarf below from (gasp!) Old Navy.  There are a bunch of gorgeous, rich tones in the scarf, so I pulled a few of them out into other layers of the look (deep blue of the dress, rust into the tights, and a borderline obnoxious dose of yellow for the nails) to create depth and interest.  You can get this whole look for under $150!!!  Can you even believe that?

Thrifty Thursday: Blush Tones

Today's Thrifty Thursday is brought to you by ... well, my brain of course, but shout out to Emily Schuman for the inspiration!  Homegirl can work a cascading skirt and she knows how to rock a blush tone better than anyone, so I combined the two to bring you a lovely {and affordable} look. 

Aside from the Nars Lip gloss and the Nail Polish, this entire outfit would cost only $140 ($24 for the Nars lip gloss and $8 for the Essie nail polish)!  That is an amazing price to pay for such a gorgeous look.  Head on down to the links to find out where you can buy!

Thrifty Thursday 11.02.11

Okay, so I have a confession about this post.  The clutch is not OVERLY thrifty..... however, in my defense, the rest of the outfit is VERY thrifty so I think you could stand to drop a cool $40 on the super awesome, massive striped clutch that is kind of ridiculous but so fun and will add some drama to so many different outfits.  You can thank me later.

Onwards to the savings!

This rust-brown colored skirt is feminine and classy - and initially I thought of pairing it with an animal print (just as Forever21 styled it for their site) but decided to go with something more streamlined and instead chose a black dolman top and a dramatic black collar necklace instead.  Paired with a simple pair of black heels and the amazing striped clutch, this outfit has some great details for a small amount of change!  Happy Thursday dears, see you back here tomorrow!

Thrifty Thursday: 10.20.2011

In honor of my mom's birthday yesterday, I promised her I would do an age appropriate post for her.  Since my mom is known as a thrifty shopper, it's also appropriate that the look I put together would fall on a Thrifty Thursday!  The rust colored jacket has a nice texture and is really flattering with the addition of the tie belt - it accentuates the smallest part of your waist.  If you've been reading the blog long enough, you'll know I am a huge fan of navy + orange combo, so I've paired the jacket with a relaxed navy and white striped tee, some bootcut jeans, and a really cute pair of tasseled navy flats. Mom, I hope you enjoy it (and all you other ladies out there - hope you enjoy too!)

Thrifty Thursday/Steal Her Style: 10.13.2011

It's a monumental day here at Stylized Existence... I've done the unthinkable (drum roll please)....... I have managed to combine a Thrifty Thursday and Steal Her Style post into one!

It all started yesterday, when I pinned this picture of Andy to my Style Pinboard.  She looks supremely chic here and I just couldn't stand to drool over the photo any longer without trying to attain the pieces needed to create the look.

The green skirt below is sold as a dress, but in this style, it could very easily be worn at the waist with the waist folded down to create the proper length.  The faux leather jacket is from Forever21, and the super chic lace up boots are from Target.  All in all, to steal Andy's style, you only have to spend $167!
