SPLURGE & save
Coming back to you with the second edition of Splurge and Save! A little update on what it is exactly... There's a certain stigma that the marvelously flawed social media world has bestowed upon us! Tons of high end fashion brands have flooded our gracious world wide web with the notion that you can only be stylish with big pockets. Well, boys and girls that is in fact, NOT the case. I partnered with my man @CharlesMaurice to show otherwise. You can be stylish on a budget.
Charles has garnered a reputation as Mr Fashionable himself and Urban Outfitters would happen to agree as they're sending him care packages of clothes to market as he flourishes on Instagram! All things aside Charles is a solid character and will be graduating from UNO this December so props to him for that accomplishment.
On to why you're here... fashion. Let us get to that!
Clothing
- Eddie Bauer - Jacket - $200
- Urban Outfitters - Button Up - $15
- Urban Outfitters - BDG Denim - $39
- Adidas Yeezy V2 - Sneaker - $220
- Apple Watch - 1st Series - $199
Grand Total
$673
Now I know there's a raised eyebrow at those prices right? Well you're in the right place because although it seems to be a tad pricey the alternatives for a more reasonable fit with the same aesthetic is achievable. Unfortunately Yeezy's are nearly impossible to capture for retail. Most all who own a pair either paid a resell value of $600+ alone for the sneaker, paid an additional $200 for pre-orders, and some flat out lucked up on pairs. Bizarre right? Let's go ahead an eliminate the Adidas Yeezy V2, Eddie Bauer Bomber Jacket, and the Apple watch!
Alternatives
$300
Bringing the whole outfit down to an easy $300 with more take that give on the specific sneakers and bombers that range in pricing the outfit could hoover around $175-$200!
