Fall for Fifty

Update my fall wardrobe with only $50 to spend? Piece of cake.
 
Marshalls challenged me to go to one of their stores and find some items to enhance my fall look on a very limited budget. Being a highly thrifty person by nature, I accepted.

From purses...


to scarves...


What to choose?


When you don't have the funds for a brand new wardrobe each season, the key is to update with pieces that are versatile. Purchase items you can wear again and again with everything you currently have.

I selected a cozy sweater wrap and a floppy camel hat. Both are extremely wearable, chic, and practical. Total: $49.37 - originally retailing for $108 total! Gotta love the prices on quality goods at Marshalls. Remember when I told you how they buy their stock?








What did you buy to update for fall? I want to know!



Outfit: Hat and wrap from Marshalls, Jeans: William Rast, Tank: New York and Company, Boots: really old from Macy's when it was Marshall Field's.

Shopping outfit: Dress, Cardigan, and Belt: All from Target

Adorable!!!! Great finds. I'm still in the process of updating my wardrobe for the fall, but new boots are a must for me. In addition to that, oversized cardigans and long tops to layer.

The hat is from Marshalls on Irving Park and Cicero in Chi town! Jessica Simpson's line.

Right before my vacation I bought a sweater jacket from Ann Taylor, because I realized I needed a really good layering piece. But that's it!
