Her outfit was incredibly chic, modest, and fancy, and she pulled it off with ease. For those of you hoping to copy her style, you may be disappointed to know that the entire outfit is worth well over $1,000. Fortunately, however, you can easily recreate this style for less than $200.

Items pictured above are as follows:

MJB Women's Corduroy Double-Breasted Boyfriend Peacoat Jacket, $26 to $32
Mela Loves London Lace Dress, $34.30
Pull & Bear Bowler Handbag, $49
Carhartt Casual Trouser, $45
Light Pink Patent Pointed Slingback Court Shoes, $30

See? All for less than $191! It is entirely possible to take a $1,000 outfit, and recreate it for nearly 80% less money!

Rafflecopter Udderly Smooth Giveaway!

Today, I'm sharing with you a giveaway opportunity thanks to Mama C's Secrets 2 Savings. The product is Udderly Smooth and here's what Mama C has to say about it!

I swear I have the worlds driest skin. It is terrible. I am constantly looking for new creams to help with my hands, and especially my feet. So, I was so excited when I was given the chance to try Udderly Smooth. 

Udderly Smooth is made in the USA for over thirty years, Udderly Smooth products contain rich moisturizing ingredients. Not your average moisturizing lotion- Udderly Smooth can be used on Dry Skin, Cracked Skin, for Diabetes Foot Care, as a Facial Moisturizer, as a General Moisturizing Lotion and many other uses.

Pioneered by a Pharmacist, reasonably priced and made in America’s heartland. Use Udderly Smooth daily for smooth, soft skin head to toe.

Look for the lotion with the black and white cow spots. Try it and get Udderly Smooth.

As for the product you ask? Does it work? Oh heck yes, before using this product my feet were embarrassing. I wouldn't wear sandals in public, because I didn't want people seeing my heels especially after the winter. I used the foot cream and put socks on, and over night you could see and feel the difference. 

My husband just loves the hand cream. He suffers from cracking dry skin constantly, and he took a tube with him to work to put in his locker. I definitely give this product and A++!

Frugal Fashion Friday: Where to Get Free Clothes

Happy Friday!

Welcome to yet another installment of Frugal Fashion Friday.

Where to Get Free Clothes

Maybe you love shopping for clothes because you know how to find amazing deals.

I love shopping for clothes. In fact, it's one of those "indulging" moments for me--and by indulge, I mean spending $30 on a single outfit every couple of months. It may not sound like a lot, but trust me, if you know what you're doing and where to look, $30 can go a long way for your wardrobe.

But what if you could get clothes for free? And I mean totally free. I'm talking no shipping costs if you get it online. No tax costs. Just 100 percent, totally free clothing. Is it possible?

As a matter of fact it is.

Here are a few ways to get clothing without having to pay a dime.

Listia

If you like eBay, you'll love Listia. It's an auction website, where you use points instead of money. I've been with Listia for a couple of weeks, and I've won a micro SD card reader, and I've auctioned off a mini planner and a mini notebook/calendar. They also have clothes, jewelry, and accessories.

Become a Product Tester

Brands like New Balance are seeking product testers to help make their merchandise better. Bloggers can also benefit from free items, simply by reviewing them. I found free eyewear in exchange for a review (bloggers only) from Firmoo.

Freebie Websites

Websites like Freecycle, Freegle, and even Craigslist are great places to find free clothing. Freecycle is based in your area, so you can pick these items up (occasionally, people will deliver). Same with Craigslist. Look in the "free" section for some free stuff.

Web Searches

Type in "100% Free Clothes" in Google (with quotes so that it searches that exact phrase). Seriously. It's that easy. Just by typing that in, I found a Hallman's Free Garment Bag, free Jay Mafia merchandise, a free Alopecia bracelet, a free Perpster promotional t-shirt, an a free April Fools shirt!

Oh, and while the aforementioned clothing may not be your style, don't forget that you can refashion old t-shirts into some pretty, fashionable clothes.

I hope that you've enjoyed today's installment and hopefully you're able to find free clothes with the above resources! Have a fantastic weekend!
