Fashion Friday Challenge 1!

Happy Friday!

Yesterday I interviewed for a sales position at Ann Taylor Loft- and I think I blew them out of the water (immodest as that sounds). Here's the thing, it's only-at most-15 hours a week. Which is totally fine. If I worked one 4 hour shift a week I'd be pleased as punch because I'm still going to have to get a "real" job. IE: one that pays the bills. I really applied for this job to work with people my own age, who are interested in fashion and HELLO! the employee discount. It's a good one. I'll find out next Thursday whether or not I got the job, I'll keep you updated.

One of the things I want to start doing is "Fashion Friday". You know how on Pinterest you see all the amazing Polyvore outfits and think, "Oh, yes, I want to wear that!", then you pin it, then never look at it again? That's totally me. But not anymore! If you go to my "Fashion Friday Outfits" Pinterest Board, you'll see I've collected outfits I want to wear. Any quick glance at the items will show that they are, for the most part, way out of my non-existent fashion budget.

So every other Friday I'm going to pick one outfit and then spend the following week making my own version of it. Then, the Friday after I'll show you what I came up with!  So for my First Fashion Friday (we'll start our easy hmmm?)  Here's the outfit I have in mind:

Find the Outfit Here

The blouse is $79, Shoes $375, Bracelet $195, Ring $594 (!!), and the Jeans are $80. Now, I don't know about you but I cannot spend $1323 on an outfit I can create for a ton less!!! I mean, Really! I could pull this outfit out of my closet right now and would have spent under $200 (my sunglasses were expensive). Well, probably. The shoes I am thinking of adding were a bit more, but bought years ago.

So there you have it, my first Fashion Friday challenge. I hope you guys have a lovely weekend (it's going to be gorgeous here)-I know I will. A friend of mine from pre-school is getting married tomorrow and then Sunday is my day to roller-blade with the hubby!
