Black Stripes and Blue Jean {jacket}

Todays outfit I got to wear one of my favorite statement necklaces. I paired it with stripes and layered on a jean jacket for when the office gets a little chilly. Then I added the camel colored flats to give it a little contrast. Note: I've had these flats for about 5 years, they were from target for probably $15, and not only are they comfy, but I get compliments on them all the time mistaking them for "designer" or expensive shoes. Cheap and fabulous, Win - Win!
Outfit Details:
Jean Jacket: Old Navy -- Striped Top: H&M -- Statement Necklace: Boutique in Hoboken
Tortoise Watch: Michael Kors -- Black Pants: Madewell -- Camel Flats: Target

Anyone else have a favorite (cheap) piece that is not only comfortable, but mistaken for a more expensive item?

  5. I have a pair of cheap cowboy boots - I think they were $60 - that always get mistaken for Fryes! I have Fryes too and I don't think the cheaper ones even compare, but people love them so I'm not complaining!

  7. My favorite watch is constantly mistaken for designer. I have to show people that it's held together with elastic for them to believe I got it for $15.
