$5 Style Challenge



Is it possible to keep up with style trends by only spending $5 on an item?

I'm going to find out.

I was trying to decide what I was going to wear to a couple of parties and my initial conditioned thought was 'I have no clothes'. 

Bullshit. 

I have so many clothes. I've got clothes at my dad's house, our car and in space bags downstairs in storage. I have a lot of clothes. Not all fit, not all suit me and not all are in great condition. I do have a lot of clothes I've sorted through and are waiting to go to charity. I've even thrown out clothes AND shoes. I am no longer a clothes hoarder.

Anyway, I have clothes. Clothes that may not be in fashion now though. So can I update these clothes without being a sewing genius (which I am definitely not) and on a tight budget? How about for $5 and less? I'm talking clothes, shoes, make-up and accessories.

I've bought clothes for $5 before at Op Shops, Tree of Life, Target, Big W, Kmart, Supre, Ice - you know all those stores. I know it can be done. Can it be done for longer than one shopping trip though? Can these clothes be stylish?
