Splurge & Save

The G-Way - SPLURGE & Save

I’m proud to kick off the my first fashion blog post! Throughout this blog my main objective is to show you that spending tons of dollars on clothing. sneakers, accessories, and etc isn’t necessary whatsoever. However, there are essential pieces that every once in awhile you can’t help but to break the bank on. That’s where splurging and saving plays it’s vital role. 

With my blog, I’ll help show you what brands are out there to diversify your closet without breaking the bank, informing you on brands and the significance of pieces, who these people are, and in the midst you’ll be a little more fashionably savvy? Yeah. :)

So…..

Let’s break down the first drop…

Grand Total 

$750

Now, I know, you may be thinking this is an expensive wear. Yes, however it's due to the sneakers. Kith is world renown for releasing collabs with companies from the likes of Nike, Adidas, Asics, New Balance, Puma, Beats by Dre, and tons of others. The shoe Gel Lyte V Volcano, retailed for $160 and being that they weren't massively produced the demand for the sky rocketed after while. That's a 312.5% increase in value for a sneaker! So if we base the total for the blog post today... a new total of 

$410

Now, you're looking and saying that's still pretty expensive huh? Again, that's where you are allowed to SPLURGE/save! You could simply deduct the Ray Bans or the Asics and you could easily have an outfit under... 

$150

Alternatives

These are a few alternatives that can make your $150 outfit looks equally as awesome for a small token! 


I hope you've enjoyed part 1 of SPLURGE/save! I'll be back next week! Same day, same time! Tuesdays.. 6:30 p.m.
