Look for Less-Sunday Style with a splash of vintage!

So I have been needing/wanting a new outfit for church for I don't know how long, I wear the same thing every week! I decided to finally just do it, and go look for one. My budget was $20, which for a nice Sunday outfit is a challenge but I was up for it!

I have been oogling over cream pencils skirts for the longest time, especially the one at Ann Taylor Loft for a whopping $60! Well guess what I found one for $2.50!

I am so in to belts at the moment, I love wearing them, and the fun flare they bring to an outfit! Of course Gap has this awesome grey one but it's $39, yikes!! No worries I found one for a buck :)

I was feeling pretty good about my two finds, and thought I was set and could find things to go with it at home but then it happened, out of the corner of my eye I spotted the most darling pair of shoes tucked away in a corner. My heart started racing as I sprinted (not really sprinted, okay maybe) over to the shoes,

I had hoped no one else saw these little treasures. But I was ready to stop anyone in my path :) I reached the beloved shoes and scooped them up! Lucky me they were just my size! And only $5!!! Oh happy day! They're Guess shoes, so I looked up similar ones on line, don't worry they're only $169.99, umm holy moly!! Do people really spend that much on shoes?!?!

Along the way snagged this adorable vintage red top I just had to have for $4 and I was set!

I threw in a pair of tights I got a couple years ago for $2, and $14.50 later I had my Sunday outfit!

So let's break down the savings:
Ann Taylor Loft Skirt- $60- my purchase-$2.50, savings:$57.50
Gap belt-$39-my purchase-$1, savings:$38
Guess shoes-$169.99-my purchase- $5, savings:$164.99
Red top-$4
Tights(bought two years ago on Black Friday)-$2
Total I could have spent-$268.99, Total I did spend-$14.50
Total Savings-$254.49
Would you believe me if I told you I got it all at my trusty ol' Goodwill?! Boy do I LOVE that place! To make things even better it was their 50% off day! Best shopping trip ever :) Keep an eye out for the next Look for Less!
