How to Turn Heads, Not Tricks. 

A 20-something's guide to looking fabulous on a budget

As a post-grad turned working girl (the kind with a 9-5 job) it can be tough staying fiscally responsible and well-dressed (and well-fed).

Once my parents stopped funding my shopping addiction, I quickly realized my days of bringing new Jimmy Choos home from the mall were over - especially when "home" changed from the rent's house in Dallas to my walk-in-closet or, as the Craigslist ad claimed: "cozy bedroom," in New York City.

Although my bank account and shoe collection may be dwindling drastically down in size, that does not necessarily mean I have to show it. Yes, I may not be able to bring Jimmy and Manolo home on a monthly basis, but I can look fabulous for much less and budget so that I may be able to make a little room for the boys after pay day.

In this blog I plan to share budgeting suggestions, style and food tips, and daily inspirational photographs of New York street style. Enjoy :)
