This summer, I've spent less than $50 on clothing and accessories and this will be the first in a series about small wardrobe updates that can be made without a lot of money. After reading The No Brainer Wardrobe last fall, I have been more contentious about how I update my look (you can read my review of the eBook). I try to find pieces that can be worn with multiple outfits (i.e. shoes) to go with the staples I already own. My first example are these wedges I practically stole from bought at Target for $7.48. Crazy, huh?

I was most excited to see how the wedges matched a belt I already owned. This outfit was the first I had paired them together. I've worn the wedges with shorts and will wear them with jeans once it cools off enough. They're comfortable for heels, but if you were around here yesterday you may recall I have issues with walking in heels. But I haven't given up and will continue to practice walking in them. Any suggestions?
All right, are you ready for a confession?! I discovered Giuliana & Bill on Netflix last night and watched three episodes! I can't say it's my favorite, but it was entertaining since I cannot even imagine such a lifestyle (i.e. two homes...one in Chicago and one in LA). My favorite thing (so far) was the clothing swap that Giuliana threw. It cracked me up that she bought clothes for it...not quite like the clothing swap I hosted.

The shoes were a total steal - I'm really trying to update my look without breaking the bank this summer too so will be interested to read more :) x
ReplyDeleteHECK YES $7.48! target sales are the best! NOW you just need to get some coupons going and you'll save even more at target! i have a serious problem... :)
ReplyDeletegreat deal, i love target clearance! i love guiliana and bill, one of my favorite reality shows, hehe
ReplyDeleteThose wedges and belt go together so well!! I much prefer to wear wedges instead of heels - so much more comfortable!!
ReplyDeleteI often like the look of wedges without a back, but for some reason, they won't stay on my feet... they seem to flop around all over the place. Combined with my klutziness, it's not a pretty picture. :)
ReplyDeleteThose wedges are SO cute for that price! What a steal!!
