this outfit is a cheapie. as in, the whole thing cost about $100. much thanks to forever 21. i find that forever is quite hit or miss, but sometimes, if you have the energy to scour the racks, you can find great pieces for super cheap. don’t expect them to last forever (they won’t), but forever 21 is definitely where i go to get trendy pieces and for when i want to try out something new (but don’t want to commit). yes, my taste is expensive for the most part (dammit), but mixing high and low is important and much more fun than wearing all one high-end label. and in the end, it’s really all about HOW you wear something, not WHAT you’re wearing.

sweater, jeans: Forever 21 (similar here and here) | sunglasses: H&M (similar) | boots: Aldo (similar)| watch: Michael Kors | jewelry: Shoppalu (last seen here), vintage (similar here and here)

happy friday kids!! wishing everyone a wonderful weekend!

    I really like that shirt! Haha, I tend to have reasonably expensive taste too – but I agree, definetly how you wear something…
