Date Night Fancy on a Budget

Parking: $15. Drinks $25. Entrees $50. The cost of a simple date night adds up so quickly! The last thing you should have to worry about on a date night is the cost of your outfit! I’m reminded of those MasterCard commercials, listing the prices of various items, only to finish with the mention of an experience they deem to be ‘priceless’. Let your outfit, and the experience of lookin fancy on a budget be that ‘priceless’ moment!

Last night, Tay and I dined at a new Italian restaurant in our closest coastal village. It was somewhat of a last minute plan; but certainly, a valid reason to get dolled up! Getting ready for the night, I’m brainstorming what to wear…without even realizing until I was fully dressed, I had conjured up the most budget-friendly ‘date night fancy’ look. Very excited to share!

If you’ve read any of my fashion blog posts, you already know I’m a bargain shopper. I try to blend quality, higher end pieces, with bargain finds – it creates balance! For my look, and for my bank account. Last night’s look, however, was by no means a blend of high-end and bargain. I threw on some Walmart denim, and a clearance H&M bodysuit. With your hair and makeup done, and a form-fitting, curve-flaunting look like this, you’re ready for date night. And the fact that you’re lookin that good having only spent about $30, now that’s a ‘priceless’ experience.

Check out this look below – I’ve linked the light wash, high waisted cropped jeans, and the black ribbed bodysuit. Both products run true to size. These are wide leg jeans, so if you’re a small waist/big booty like me – go ahead and size down in the jeans to better fit your waist. For example, I normally wear a 6 in pants. Wearing a 4 in these, that way the waist fits more appropriately, and the extra room in the wide leg is enough space! Bodysuit is full coverage, and doesn’t ride up! And the ribbed fabric is so soft.
