Be sure to visit the blogs of Toni, Lauren, and Tori for a closer look at their date night outfits.

All of the items in my date night look (with the exception of the hat, jewelry, and sunglasses) came from a thrift store or flea market. My inspiration came from an old Rose Bowl Flea Market street style photo in which a trio of young girls wore strapless belted floral dresses with ankle boots. So I took my thrifted maxi skirt, cut a few inches off the hem, and styled it as a strapless dress for a similar look, albeit with a Western twist.




thrifted skirt worn as a dress ($1.95) (similar), vintage I. Magnin bag ($7.99), thrifted Guess jacket (similar) ($7.99), and thrifted B. Makowsky boots (another version I like)
The total cost of my core outfit items (skirt, jacket, and bag) is $17.93, which leaves me just enough money to feed the juke box at my favorite retro diner.
