Today we are diving in to a very exciting version of Style Your Budget. If you’re new around here, Style Your Budget helps you shop smarter by showing you one outfit prompt styled at five drastically different price points.
One of the things that makes Style Challenges work so well is that we don’t provide you the clothes. That may sound like a bad thing at first, but we promise it isn’t. By providing you with a style prompt rather than a box of clothes, you get to decide what the outfit ultimately looks like (and how much it costs).
If you already own all the pieces in the prompt you can shop your closet for a free outfit. Woohoo! However, if you need to fill in a gap in your wardrobe you get to choose which store, and more importantly how much you are going to spend, to fill in that gap.
This look is the Day 5 outfit prompt from the just released Style Challenges Fall 2018 Capsule Wardrobe. Rich fall florals are the perfect transition pattern into cooler temperatures and this outfit is finished out once again with classic closet staples. We say this a lot around GYPO, but truly, investing in good quality closet staples will serve you well season after season. Knowing you have a closet full of solid basics you love makes deciding what to wear fun and affordable!

We’re back with a second edition of Style Your Budget. If you missed it last month, Style Your Budget shows you one outfit prompt styled at five drastically different price points.

If you already own all the pieces in the prompt you can shop your closet for a free outfit. Woohoo! However, if you need to fill in a gap in your wardrobe you get to choose which store, and more importantly how much you are going to spend, to fill in that gap.

Today I’m introducing a new blog series that is A LOT of fun. One of the things that makes Style Challenges work so well is that I don’t provide you the clothes. Say whaaat?!
That may sound like a bad thing at first, but I promise it isn’t. By providing you with a style prompt rather than a box of clothes, you get to decide what the outfit ultimately looks like (and how much it costs).
If you already own all the pieces in the prompt you can shop your closet for a free outfit. Woohoo!
However, if you need to fill in a gap in your wardrobe you get to choose which store, and more importantly how much you are going to spend, to fill in that gap.
In this series, I’m going to show you one outfit prompt styled at five drastically different price points. I present to you — Style Your Budget.
