Mix + Match

[ jeans: Edyson, craving these ]  [ blouse: old via Nordstrom Rack ]  [ fur: Forever 21 ]  [ hat: the Loft ]  

[ purse: Vince Camuto old, similar ]  [ boots: via Nordstrom Rack ]  [ shades: Ray Ban ]  [ watch: Michael Kors ]  

[ bangle: (Maid Of Honor Gift) Kate Spade "heart of gold" ]  [ bracelet: J.Crew Factory (on sale!) ]  [ rings: Forever 21 ] 

I love creating a look where I can mix + match some pricier pieces with, well, not so pricey pieces.  For example, these boots and blouse were on sale for nearly half of their "in-season" price.  Who cares if it's last season, right?  Who can afford to buy a new wardrobe every 4 months?  You can totally rock anything, given comfort should be a priority.  It just goes to show: you can be smart, savvy + stylish, and still stay within your budget.
