Dress for Less: Inspired by ShopBop



  Sunday, July 31, 2011 at 8:00 AM   |    Post a Comment     Tagged:,,,, 
Last week ShopBop sent out an email with 5 looks using one of Fall's colors, orange! I fell so in love with one look that I decided to create a Dress for Less inspired by it.  But before I get to the cheaper look, here's the original, I really want the Marc Jacobs sweater but it is far too expensive :(
Marc by Marc Jacobs Sweater - $228
Current/Elliot Jeans - $188
ONE by Matisse Footwear Penny Loafers - $150
Linea Pelle Belt - $99
Total: $665

This was a bit difficult but I think I did well! The colors are a bit off, but not all the stores have fall clothes out, once we're closer to fall I'm sure we'll be able to find a closer match ;) But I couldn't wait until them.
Sweater - Free People $69.90
Jeans - Forever 21 $22.80
Loafers - Alloy $29.90
Belt - ASOS $15.48
Total: $138.08

There is another sweater match here at ASOS! Also, here's another pair of loafers that are more neutral from ASOS ($60.34)

    I like both jumpers! Although it seems strange to be thinking about knitwear now!
