Budget-Wise: The $100 Head to Toe Party Outfit

For this party look, I wanted to create something both sweet but edgy. The bow necklace, clutch, and tiered dress are the feminine details. The buckle and stud booties and mineral wash vest suggest something more rock star. They keep the whole look from being to saccharine. Leave the vest open so it frames the ruffle details of the dress.

Clockwise from top left: Aldo Deroruce, Ann Taylor Loft Strappy Tiered Dress, Target Mini Bow Clutch, ASOS Side Buckle Cowboy Ankle Boot, Hue Opaque Tights, and Forever 21 Mineral Wash Sleeveless Cardigan

Calculating total cost: $9.98 + $19.99 + $16.99 + $27.00 + $6.25 + 18.24 = $98.45

Leaving us with $1.55 to spare.

Ann Taylor Sale

I love Ann Taylor and I love Ann Taylor Loft even more. They have fabulously well made clothes that are perfect for business. The clothes are not expensive especially when there's an up to 70% off sale (

Ann Taylor/Ann Taylor Loft). Here are some great casual chic items for under $30.

One of the best things about Ann Taylor is how easy it is to use their website. When window shopping, you can set the side options to your prefered size, category, color, and price range. I set my size and the 'under $20' option and found an amazing pair of pants.
