Style on a Budget: Cheetah Print Dress & Flats

November 29, 2016

**Not a sponsored post.

I had a job interview last week with a local gently used clothing store that specializes in trending women’s wear. I turned to my closet after I got the call and set up the interview, and after some thought, decided I needed a new, cute and trendy outfit. With only $20 to spare, I freaked out just a little.

I took a trip down to my local DD’s Discounts, and was in heaven – so many great deals and items – even stuff for the home! I had a specific type of outfit in mind though – I was looking for a solid bottom of some sort, either skirt or slacks, and a cheetah print top. I searched, and searched and tried on, but no luck – I couldn’t find cheetah print anywhere but leggings. Just as I was about to give up, I came across this short, cheetah print dress by Speed Control New York. It’s lightweight made from 100% polyester, and even has pockets! It features an elastic waistline, and darted blouse. It’s a little short – ending just above my knee, but still provides good coverage. Dress damage – $6. No luck on shoes at DD’s…

Right next door to this DD’s, was a Shoeland – a favorite of mine 🙂
There, I found these dark brown flats by Herstyle. These flats are sueded, and have a pointed front as seen in the photo. Comfortable, cute and affordable. Shoe damage – $10.

So… For less than $20, I got a new, trendy outfit to wear to my job interview (or out on the weekends). Where do you like to shop on a budget?

If you love to bake, craft and DIY too, I would love to see your photos and get your recommendations! Join the EyeLoveKnots Crafting Community to share your creations, and see what other’s are up to!
