    Oh I was playing a silly DFW-esque game this morning, was flicking through a magazine while I was having my breakfast and they had a bit about designer vs high street versions of the same outfits - designer ones came to a few thousand, high street still added up to a couple of hundred for most of them.. so I added up what I've got on today...

    Sisley wool jacket - from charity shop about 5 years ago - £3
    Scarf - charity shop - £1
    Florence & Fred top - looks new, from charity shop the other week - £1
    Grey suit trousers - Primark - about £10
    Ralph Lauren shoes - from TK Maxx a few years ago - £15
    Underwear and socks, all Primark, come to £5.50!
    Jewellery - model's own :rotfl:(all presents)

    ..coming to a grand total of... £35.50 - blimey, I really am a cheapskate! :D

    AussieBum briefs....£14

    That's it.

    I couldn't tell you how much my outfit cost as most of it is so old I can't remember the price.

    lecoqsportif jumper - Handmedown from older sister, I remember her wearing this when I was 7, that's how old this jumper is.
    Long sleeved giant skull t-shirt - £10 from sea side market within last 3 years
    Size 14 blue jeans - Older sisters again, she gave me them in january
    Black fabric trainers - £8 primark
    Glasses - £130 D&A
    Not an expert, but I try and contribute and I'll always listen. Middle child of middle child parents. I drink way too much coffee.

    Debt Free Date: March 2013

    Just had a thought though, glasses are meant to last about two years, so 130 divided by 730 works out at 18p a day! Very cost effective.
