$30 Project |
I'm Lindsay and I started to this blog in 2010 to try and pay off my credit card debt. (I finally managed it in late 2012!) I set a budget for every year. They've gone as follows: spending no more than $30 on any single clothing item, spending only a $100 per month, and budgeting $1,200 for the year that I could spend whenever I liked. I've never once broken the rules! In 2013, I have a $1,000 budget. Questions/Concerns can be addressed care of thirtydollarproject@gmail.com or tweet me! @30dollarproject for outfit updates and @LindsH for the various musings of my everyday life. |
Pleated Skirt: Shop Ruche $40, Dress as Shirt: Modcloth $28 on sale, Oxfords: Target $18, Tights: GAP $8, Elephant Necklace: purchased 4 years ago at a boutique in LI, Bracelets: vintage via my mom, Flower Ring: purchased at a thrift store in CA for $12
As you can see, there’s been some big changes around here. I moved and I’m still in the process of finding the best photo spot. This will have to do for today!
Oh yah and… I chopped all my hair off. It’s not hidden in a ponytail. That is the actual length of my hair now! It’s something that I’ve always wanted to do and I was finally able to muster up the courage. I’m going to be writing a piece about it, but it won’t be out for another few weeks or so.
I’m excited to see how it changes my style. It only happened last night so I’m not quite sure what effects it’s going to have just yet.
A million thank you’s to my stylist Kristijana and my friend Raydene for coming with me! And especially to Beca, who said, “You should do it! It’s just hair!”
Total cost of the outfit = $106
Remaining budget for 2012 = $862.76
And doesn’t she pull it off oh-so well?
