$100 Challenge- August

 The first weekend in August is always Missouri's Tax Free Weekend. This is the weekend in which Dennis allows me to do some major "no-holds-barred" shopping! We visited three different stores, and scored some killer deals.

This weekend's shop-a-thon gave me a great idea... Each month, I will post an outfit that is (head to toe) less than $100! Now's as good of a time as any I guess :)

August's outfit theme is Date Night. After spending all day shopping, I was not about to spend all night cooking! Dennis and I headed to our favorite spot in adorable Brookside; Avenue's Bistro.

 This outfit was perfect for the neighborhood's classic, yet homey feel. The orange peplum top gives you just the right amount of trendy-ness, while the the black jeggings keep the outfit's vibe casual. 

Keeping the accessories simple was also key. A few bangles, a gold clutch, and some fabulous shoes completed the look!

Now, let's do some math!!
Top: Rue 21- $18.99
Jeggings: Rue 21- $10 (in store sale, buy one pair of jeans, get the second for $10)
Bangles: Rue 21- $4.49 (accessories were buy one, get one half off)
Gold clutch: Old, but follow the link to a similar style. I'll use that price- $24.50
Shoes: Madden Girl- $41.59
Grand total: $99.57! How's that for close?!

Empty wallets and full tummies :)

Thanks for reading! Stay fab!
