AMFS - Day 2

My outfit for Day 2:

I'm not sure how I feel about vests, but I really like this one.  It's in my color and I had the perfect shirt to go under it at home.  The big pom-poms can be kind of a pain, though...once I was wearing this on a field trip and this little kid came up and yanked one of the pom-poms way out.  Grrr.....

∞ The Specifics ∞

Shirt: Mossimo / Hand-me-down

3 Ways to Spend Less Money on Clothes 

1.  Watch out for sales.  No, I don't mean so that you can take advantage of them - I mean, be careful.  Do you really need the shirt that's on sale for, "Buy one, get one 88¢"? Often, the shirt you buy is over-priced to make up for the 88¢ 'deal'.  

2.  Go through your closet often so that you'll know exactly how many jean jackets / fluffy skirts / whatev. you have.  It helps to keep things in perspective.

3.  Check out your local thrift store or go garage-saling.  You can also sell your old clothes using this method.
