Nice to see you again, Friday! I hope everyone had a nice week and is ready to celebrate with another edition of Trends For Less. Who told you money bought sophistication? Maybe no one in particular, but there has always been this notion that elegant and beautiful looks can only be achieved with money. It’s simply not true! You just need to have a keen eye for style and some patience.

In the above set, I featured a light grey and silver statement skirt paired with a classic white button-up collar blouse. I love this because the skirt is trendy, yet it has the look of a classic due to the neutral color palette. I can’t explain why- but white, silver, and light grey always look expensive. You can’t go wrong with those colors as far as I’m concerned! I accessorized with  Charlotte Russe silver bow flats and an Aldo brown hobo bag. The hobo bag really pops because the color stands out on the palette even though it’s a neutral and although the style is different, it works.

Lastly, I used peacock inspired jewelry. I’m loving everything peacock these days! I love the rich colors and gorgeous feathers. I chose jewelry from Pier 1 Imports; a turquoise and gold drop necklace, chandelier earrings, a peacock ring, and enamel bangle. Pier 1 is a favorite store of mine for household decor, but I don’t usually think to go there for jewelry. Everything in the store is gorgeous, so it’s no surprise the jewelry is too! But the real kicker is that it’s reasonably priced- can’t beat that!

The grand total here is just $192 for the fully accessorized outfit! What’s your favorite piece in this look? Have you shopped Pier 1 for jewelry?
