This week’s dress form outfit is what I consider to be a “casual work to date night” outfit.
I often see in fashion magazines where stylists put together an outfit where every item is under $50. The jeans may be $25, the shirt may be $39, the purse may be $15, etc… However, I would love to see them style an entire outfit for under $50 total – from top to bottom, including accessories.
So when I put together my dress form outfits, that is exactly my goal — to put together an inexpensive outfit for less than $50 total!
I paired this black, tan and eggplant print shirt with a pair of black skinny jeans and a pair of black sueded oxfords. For date night, I would swap out the shoes for some black high heels or wedge booties.

Shirt: Calvin Klein
Jeans: Forever 21
Shoes: Steven Madden
The shirt has some really nice details, including the drawstring ruching on the sides, the rolled up sleeves with button detail, and a small front breast pocket.

The shirt I purchased at the Goodwill in Cleveland for around $4 and the skinny jeans were purchased at the Forever 21 for $10.80. The black oxfords were purchased at Marti & Liz Shoes for $25, making the shoes the most expensive part of this outfit! So all in all, this outfit cost less than $50, including taxes.

Hope everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving!
