More Pictures from Gent

Thank you CoJo for supplying these photo booth pictures from the Gent event as these are the only documentation of what I was wearing!

50 Dollar Challenge | Creams and Whites

Here's my outfit I will be wearing to GENT. Creme de la Creme! For the challenge I spent 37.29! I will pat myself on the back. The whole outfit (including accessories that I have had in my closet for a bit now) cost about 57.79. Cannot wait to show you pics from the GENT. event on Saturday. I will keep you posted!

Anne Klein Blazer- Swap Shop $0
White tuxedo button up- Salvation Army $2.49
Cream Shorts- Goodwill (alterations $12)
Gold Chain Necklace- Bajalia (doesn't factor into my challenge
but I got it on sale for $12.50
after its mark down from $90!)
Nude shoes-  Forever 21 at $22.80

Swap Shop

I have been putting off buying anything for this GENT. event until the swap shop. What is a swap shop you ask? Well, it is where you bring your old clothes to a specified location, and then you get to shop for other people's clothes. It used to be free, but now there is a small entrance fee. Still, I get to grab however many clothes I want. I have never walked away from a swap shop empty handed. This time I actually walked away with newer items (no vintage pieces). I helped Dana of OPP sort through all the men and women clothing for most of the morning, and I get to pull a few items before the actual swap and shop.

I walked away with two dresses, a white blazer (my heart's craving for months) from Anne Klein, a clutch wallet, and four tops. The white blazer I want to go with my cream shorts for the event, so now I just need to find shoes and a top. Trying to figure out the best combo. But so far of my $50 budget for a month, I have spent 12 and that has been for hemming the shorts because the shorts I got almost a year ago. Can I do it? My dilemma is whether or not to wear a top that matches the white blazer or matches the cream shorts. And what color should my shoes be? Decisions. Decisions.

Inspiration? Time for some pinteresting.
