Inexpensive Pizzazz

huge DIY clothing lotImage by no-frills marilyn. via FlickrOnce again I was looking through one of my other favorite magazines, InStyle magazine and found some fabulous ways to dress up that plain T-shirt in your closet. The best part is you can even go to the thrift store find an inexpensive jacket (especially since the suit jacket/blazer look is really in right now) and add your own pizzazz to it. Two examples that really stood out to me in the magazine included a plain black dress and a plain T-shirt. The dress looked like it could as expensive as $200 and at the same time as inexpensive as $20. To add a pretty crystal look rhinestones were added to the neckline. The rhinestones could simply be purchased at a Jo-Ann Fabrics or even Hobby Lobby. An inexpensive dress that looks like its worth hundreds of dollars was created.

The shirt that was displayed could be purchased at an Old Navy, Wet Seal or even Forever21 for about $7. Then gold safety pins that cost about $3 were added to the shirt. The safety pins were placed on the shoulders of the shirt in a beautiful design. Once again a look that looks more than it cost was created.

I was sooooo…excited when reading about some of these simply creative and inexpensive tips! It even inspired me on ideas for my birthday outfit. :)
