Today’s outfit was one of my personal favorites! I wore a white Banana Republic cardigan for $8.49 and a pair of Express Jeans for $18.49. The jeans are now my favorite jeans that I own! They are amazingly stretchy and I love the way they fit! Also, don’t to check out the rest of the ThredUp $150 challenge: Back To School Shopping On A Budget Day 1: Juicy Couture and Back To School Shopping On a Budget Day 3: Levi Strauss.

The Banana Republic cardigan is really comfortable and stretchy and I also think that it is slimming. My favorite item that I got from ThredUp was the Express Jeans. They are very comfortable and feel as if I am wearing either leggings or jeggings, but they are really jeans. ๐Ÿ™‚

 

So what did I pay for today’s outfit?

 

I paid $8.49 for the Banana Republic cardigan and $18.49 for the Express jeans.ย 

Today’s outfit was less than $27!

 

Want to see if I can get 5 outfits for less than $150? Be sure to come back daily this week to see. ๐Ÿ™‚

    I can’t believe how inexpensive the clothes are. They look well made and comfortable.

    Name brand clothes for a fraction of the cost really comes off with this outfit. I would be worried ordering a used white cardigan but it looks brand new. Glad you are finding such great brands and outfits. Looking good!

    This fits you really well and that price for Express jeans is amazing. It all looks new which white would be hard for me to keep that way, but it looks very nice and would go with a lot.

    I really like this outfit. It looks casual and comfortable…and new. The big hoop earrings are a wonderful touch for the easiness of this look. You could even dress up the white sweater with khakis and pearls. Very versatile!
