My favorite personal style website youlookfab.com is having a challenge based on What I Wore Today's $20 challenge. Although I'm not a thrifter (other than original jewelry and handbags), I decided to give it try. Here's how I combined the cheapest in my closet. I would have ideally added some more pieces to these outfits, but I think the outfits still work and I could go out in them if the weather allowed. What do you think? Could you do it with the items in your closet?
