Cheapskate Tuesdays!
It was difficult to choose a post for today's Cheapskate Tuesdays. I had a choice between an outfit that had shoes that cost a bit too much but was old anyway so I didn't spend much on the pieces I wore on that one or this one that I posted. This one has a pricey belt, but when I walked around the Eastwood City bazaar I found that the belts there were only 50 pesos less than what the one I have on from Forever 21. And I realized that during the past few months, I don't really spend much on clothing anymore. I usually go to the Eastwood Bazaar (if that isn't already obvious) and thriftshops, shopping in stores hasn't been exciting anymore, not even for shoes. I think in the last year I bought enough to last me until next year and nothing's popped up on me recently (thank goodness). So anyway, putting all that babble aside, I decided on posting this one specifically because I actually used this photo, that I found on Pinterest as inspiration for this outfit.
I looked at it and thought it was such a pretty dress, and then realized that I could recreate it! Whoohooo!! :D It's so nice to find something online and know that you have a way to recreate it half the cost and with your own twist too!!
Have you guys tried recreating "runway" looks or outfits that you've seen online? :)
