Charlotte Russe t-shirt; American Eagle jeans; Thrifted belt; Tiffany necklace (gift); Heels (free) from garage sale.

How to get an outfit for $4:

1) Buy t-shirt on sale for $3
2) Convince your mom that her jeans are too short for her, let her give them to you.
3) Befriend an awesome old lady at garage sale. Listen to her complain that no one is buying her shoes. Let her give several pairs to you.
4) Thrift belt for $1.
