Dress for Less: Military Chic



  Wednesday, October 20, 2010 at 8:15 AM   |    Post a Comment     Tagged:,, 
I noticed I haven't done many Dress for Less posts with pants, so I've decided to do just that!  So here's a nice fall look for under $150 (hard to stay under $100 during fall/winter, haha):
Cargo Pants - Alloy $39.90
Navy Military Cape - ASOS $48.87
Tee - Forever 21 $6.80
Shoes - ASOS $26.96
TOTAL: $122.53
(Second Place) Military Cardigan - ASOS $48.87
TOTAL (cardigan and no tee): $115.73
