  • - Hi everyone!

  • It's your girl, Jenn, welcome back.

  • Today I have a really fun styling video for you

  • because a lot of you guys were requesting

  • a more affordable outfits video.

  • So, I thought I would do a really fun challenge

  • and create outfits that are around $25.

  • And, if I'm gonna be honest, this was a little bit tricky.

  • But after scouring through all the online sales,

  • applying every promo code, discount,

  • and also digging through a ton of flea markets,

  • outlet stores and thrift stores,

  • I was able to create five trendy outfits

  • that won't break the bank.

  • So, I want to just dive into it right now,

  • so let's get started.

  • So this is look number one.

  • I wanted to begin with something very casual.

  • This is a look that I would rock if I were heading to class

  • or running out the door to run some errands.

  • The statement piece in this look is definitely the flannel.

  • I got this for one dollar at the Goodwill Outlet Store,

  • and I love how thick and oversized it is.

  • It really makes for the perfect layering piece.

  • Underneath, I'm rocking this babydoll basketball tee.

  • I also got this for a buck at the outlet store.

  • You might remember these from my $1 try on haul,

  • I will leave that video in the cards

  • in case you haven't seen that.

  • But I thought that these two items

  • worked perfectly together.

  • My shorts are from the Rose Bowl Flea Market

  • and I got these for $10 in one of those huge

  • denim short piles.

  • They're a great fit and I love the distressed elements

  • on the edge.

  • Now for shoes, I purchased a brand new pair

  • at Forever 21 for $12.45.

  • I got these as a BOGO deal,

  • so I bought one pair at full price

  • and so these ones came half off.

  • So my grand total for this outfit comes out

  • to a whomping $24.45.

  • So we came super under budget.

  • I'm very pleased with myself.

  • I love this casual everyday outfit

  • and no one would know that this was under 25 bucks.

  • All right, so let's move onto look number two.

  • A super easy way to create a budget friendly outfit

  • is to find an affordable dress.

  • I found this adorable pink seersucker dress

  • at Forever 21 on sale for $10.

  • I love that the sleeves hug the arms

  • and I love how the dress flares out at the bottom.

  • It's so summery, breezy, and perfect for warm weather.

  • To accessorize I added some pearl hoop earrings from H&M.

  • These were $7.99, so it ate a little bit of my budget,

  • but I thought they were super cute

  • and I knew that they tied the look together.

  • For shoes, I wore these white kitten heels from Payless.

  • These were on sale for $12.99.

  • I also utilized the BOGO deal on there.

  • So my total for this outfit comes out to $30.98.

  • And, I know, I'm over budget on this one, like by $5.

  • But I think if I just switched out the earrings

  • to something else, it would have been under.

  • But, I don't know, please just let this one slide

  • because this is the only outfit that's over budget.

  • I thought this was super cute.

  • Something you could wear to a brunch or even church.

  • So it's time for outfit number three.

  • I am definitely channeling Sandy from Grease

  • with this outfit.

  • I think it looks super cute.

  • I've always loved over the shoulder tops.

  • And when I saw this bodysuit on sale at Forever 21

  • for $8, I knew I had to build an outfit around it.

  • For my jeans, I'm wearing these American Apparel skinnies

  • that I got for $1 at the Goodwill Outlet.

  • These definitely have some wear and tear in them,

  • but they're super comfy and helped

  • with this particular challenge.

  • For my shoes, I'm wearing these crushed velvet mules

  • that were $8.49.

  • I was so happy they had my size left

  • because I am such a sucker for shoes like this.

  • Then for earrings I wore these gold hoops from H&M

  • to complete the look.

  • These were only $2.99.

  • My grand total for this outfit comes out to $20.48.

  • So I am very under budget for this look

  • and it makes me really proud.

  • I know this outfit is a little bit more on the basic side,

  • but it still packs a punch.

  • All right, so outfit number four is perfect

  • for all those backyard barbecues or picnics

  • you may be going to.

  • I'm wearing this striped jumpsuit from Forever 21 for $10.

  • I love that it's strapless so I'll be avoiding tan lines

  • and I'll just be keeping an even complexion all around.

  • I don't lose my figure in this outfit

  • because it has an elastic band that cinches the waist.

  • And it's in this comfy, breezy fabric

  • so I can eat all I want and relax.

  • I'm wearing the same shoes that I wore

  • in the previous outfit.

  • And I accessorized with this straw at

  • that I thrifted at Goodwill.

  • This was $3.99 and I think it's just a complete staple

  • for the summer.

  • Lastly, for jewelry I'm wearing these chain link earrings

  • from Forever 21, which I got for $2.95.

  • This entire look was $25.45.

  • So I'm just like a few cents over budget.

  • But hey, I think this outfit looks great.

  • This is a look that is super chic and timeless.

  • So this is my last outfit.

  • And this one goes out to all my California girls out there.

  • I think this just screams summer.

  • I love red.

  • It is my favorite bold color to rock.

  • I got this cute boxy jacket

  • from the Goodwill Outlet Store for $1.

  • I love that this is a structured piece

  • that adds a huge punch of color.

  • To coordinate, I added this cute California tank

  • from Forever 21, this was $8.90,

  • and I am obsessed with the '70s cut.

  • For my pants, I'm wearing the same dollar ones

  • from my previous outfit.

  • They just streamline the look

  • and the light wash works perfectly with the vibrant colors.

  • Then, I finished off the look

  • with those white kitten heels from Payless.

  • I would have loved to have found a pair of white sneakers,

  • but unfortunately I couldn't find anything online.

  • So I'll just have to scour more sales.

  • But, regardless, the grand total for this outfit

  • comes out to $23.89.

  • So we made it under budget again.

  • Whoo!

  • All right guys, that is a wrap on this video.

  • I hope you guys enjoyed this challenge

  • and I hope this inspired you to really dig

  • through all your online sales, your local flea markets,

  • thrift stores, you can really find a lot of amazing gems.

  • It doesn't have to be like a designer.

  • You can find something for a dollar

  • and make it look like a million bucks.

  • And if you guys would like to try this challenge

  • out for yourself, please show me your $25 outfit

  • on social media.

  • it's all the same.
