Reality Chic {Mini Series and Link Up}

Posted on the 28 March 2013 by Samantha Curtis @hooahandhiccups
Y'all know I love being trendy and stylish, but refuse to spend thousands of dollars doing it. 
I've had so many other women ask me where I shop, how I shop, and how I piece together certain outfits. 
So voila! I bring you Reality Chic!
I've taken this outfit I put together on Polyvore and recreated it Samantha Style. It's more realistic to what most people can afford and in my opinion, I think it looks just as good.

HUGE difference huh? 
The earrings came in a pack of five so technically, you're paying less per pair. But still, can you believe how much the "designer" brands cost? 
As I've said before, head straight to the clearance section! It's like treasure hunting, I swear. Although it may be hit or miss, you can find some great deals if you just take the time to look.
