Pants: Zara | Heels: Forever21

With the holiday season right around the corner, your bank account, which has been steadily decreasing from all those bills, loan payments, and holiday gifts, is barely holding it together. As a result, you’re left with zero funds for shopping expenses until Janauary.

So, what’s a girl to do during this time of the year? Well, if you are a shopaholic like us, you have to spend your last bit of money on something. So, you might as well go thrifting.

For this post, we reached out to our local thrifting expert, Brandi. A master of consignment shops and bargain shopping, she knows how to find any hidden treasure.

Take for instance, her featured outfit, as shown above. Brandi found her jacket, blouse, and belt from the same thrift store. It’s rare that you can assemble a fully thrifted outfit, especially one that’s work appropriate as well. To break up her thrifted items, Brandi threw on a pair of slacks and heels. Her pants were purchased from Zara, and the suede heels from Forever21.

This outfit is simple business casual, with a colorful twist! You could wear this look in the office, or after work to a Happy Hour event with your girlfriends. It’s simply chic and versatile at the same time.

So, how do you feel about Brandi’s outfit? Feel free to share with us in the comments section below.

Thanks for reading!
