Professional Look
I think that dressing for the office can be very fun, but you have to have the right clothes. Here's an outfit that is appropriate for the office, but also fun!
Total Cost: $54.27
$10.49
Brown wide leg pants available for purchase at Kmart.com search, "stooshy safari".
$6.98
White T-shirt available for purchase at Target.com search, "mossimo long tee".
$15.00
Available for purchase here at 15dollarstore.com.
$6.80
Knotted chain necklace available for purchase at Forever21.com search, "knotted chain necklace".
$15.00
Platform pumps available for purchase here at Mydivacloset.com.
Tips: Tuck the T-shirt into the pants for a professional look that will also elongate your legs. Don't let the hems of the pants drag on the ground, but get them pretty close. Leave the cardigan unbuttoned.

Big Name Little Tag
Since I try to make my posts as affordable as possible, it's infrequent - if ever - that I get a big name brand item on here. So for this post I'm going to be showing some big name items with little price tags. Keep in mind that these aren't going to be quite as cheap as clothes in other posts because of the name brand aspect.
Alexander McQueen for PUMA:
$50.00
Available for purchase here at Shop.puma.com.
Jimmy Choo for H&M:
Hm.com for stores.
Stella McCartney for GapKids:
$9.99
Available for purchase here at Gap.com.
Stella McCartney for Adidas:
$38.00
Available for purchase here at Shopadidas.com.
Alice + Olivia for Payless:
$29.99
Available for purchase here at Payless.com.
Zac Posen for Target:
$27.98
Available for purchase here at Target.com.
(Miley Cyrus &) Max Azria for Walmart:
$20.00

Brian Lichtenberg for Forever 21:
$14.80

Christian Siriano for Payless:

What do you think, are name brands worth these prices or do you just buy what you like without looking at the label?

Tips: Leave the blazer unbuttoned to show off the shirt and your casual side. Roll up the pants a couple times so they're about half way up your calf. Also roll up the sleeves of the blazer a couple times even up to show a bit of the shirt sleeves if you want.

I read Instyle Magazine and enjoy the fashion but find most of it out of my price range. I'm going to try to find similar looks to what they have in the magazine, but with a smaller price tag. Then I will share my findings on here!
