    *The Last* Under $100







    Do you ever find yourself coveting the off-duty outfits of the high fashion runway models? You can easily achieve their stylishly disheveled look on a limited budget, and I have an outfit here for you that I think does just that - for under $100, of course! Enjoy :)

    We gave two blazer options - the piped military blazer when you're feeling a bit more Agyness Deyn, and a more classic black blazer when you're feeling a bit more Anja Rubik.

    Also, models often opt out of heavy accessorizing because it's easier to switch out of their clothes when running from show to show without having to deal with tangled necklaces. They usually will carry a simple bag or tote in  a bright colour, or the season's "it" bag slung across their shoulder. Obviously for under $100, a $5,000 Valentino bag might break out budget ;)

    1.) Brigit Mini Handbag (in Teal or Brown) - $23; forever21.com
    2.) Metallic Piped Blazer (in Navy/Gold) - $33; forever21.com
    3.) Open Front Blazer (in Charcoal) - $28; forever21.com
    4.) BDG Sheer V-Neck Tee (in White) - $16; urbanoutfitters.com
    5.) Destroyed Show-Stopper Jeans - $15; wetseal.com
    6.) Brianda Slouched Boots (in Brown) - $33; forever21.com

    Unfortunately, the bag puts us a little over budget, but you can of course just forgo the jeans and use you favourite skinnys, forgo the bag and just use your favourite slouchy hobo, or forgo the v-neck and just use your basic solid coloured tee.

    Grand Total = $120 (with the Piped Blazer); $115 (with the Open Front Blazer)
