The power of styling




What I love about this outfit is that it's simple yet elegant and that it cost me less money vs the impression it gives off. It was put together with great care to the detail and with a certain styling to my mind. But  instead of rushing to the shops to buy something  I searched and found all little accessories I own for a long time but never put together with a certain style in my head.
As my style evolves I know better what I need and my purchases are more targeted and cost me less money when I thrift which is basicaly my only source to buy clothes now that I'm on a tight tight budget.Still this is the time that I seem to put together the most stylish outfits.
What I'm trying to say is that you don't need much money to  be stylish only knowledge of what fits and little tricks to know where to find it.

  1. well said, Angie. It does take time to put all the pieces together, and to hunt them down. But the results are so worth it! You look like you stepped from the pages of a high-end catalog. Gorgeous!

  4. More than once I have been out shopping and seen something I considered purchasing only to remember that I already own something similar. Things need to be in sight or I forget I own them!

  6. It is fantastic to be able to come up with new trendy looks mixing and matching what you already have in the wardrobe and use good accessories to create a complete look.

  7. This is another very chic outfit... am now following you! I totally agree with you about how you can make an outfit give the impression of costing more than it did... for me it's all about accessorizing ;) Your necklaces are what make this outfit!
