Vintage Look for Less

I've wanted to do a post about getting a vintage look with out spending a lot of money. Since I'm sure lots of people got awesome deals this weekend and are still getting good deals.

 
I wanted to put a look together that was inspired by brands with larger price tags but pulling off a look at an affordable price year round when deals are not a plenty.

 
This look was inspired by larger price tag brands like Dita Von Teese, Miz Mooz shoes, and Pin up girl clothing.

 
I find a mix of things online when I got a really good coupon code because I usually sign up for all of my favorite shopping sites with my email. 

 
I've  also been known to score amazing items from TJ Maxx and Marshals.

 
I find the hunt and the arranging of outfits a fun puzzle piece, and ties right in with my problem solving skills as an artist. So whatcha think? Let me break this one down into parts.
 
 
This is the Heidi Dress in Bright Blue form Pin Up Girl Clothing. It ussaly cost a $102.00 (on sale click on Heidi link)
 
 
This one  is similar and I got on Amazon its a Lindy Bop dress and cost me $40.
 
 

This is the infamous Dita Von Teese sweater that is absolutely beautiful but it comes with a hefty price tag of $190 on Wheels and Dollbaby. I cannot afford that so I look for alternatives. 
 
 
I found this Cardigan for a steal at $7.99 on sale a few years back at forever 21. It has similarities in that it has embroidered design at the neck and has a tie right near the bust line. There are other similar Dita inspired sweaters on Modcloth and Banned apparel.
 

 
This belt I got at Marshals and I got it for $15, Its a Betsy Johnson. 
 
 
 
 
I got these at TJMaxx for $20 the brand is called Report.
 

Out fit Details:
Dress: Lindy Bop/ Amazon
Shoes: Report/TJMAXX
Cardigan: Forever 21(older)
Belt: Besty Johnson/ Marshals
 
Cost of original items all together $431.00 (YIKES)
My alternative outfit: $82.99 (PHEW under $85)
 
 
 
Deals are where you find them. You can always find affordable alternatives without busting the bank.-Fairfawn
