Budget-Friendly Fashion: What I Wore From the Thrift Store for Under $50

I do lots of thrift shopping.

So I thought, why not show an outfit from the thrift store?

This whole outfit was got secondhand.

Except for my jewelry and smartwatch.

And a couple of them are gifts or hand-me-downs, if you will.

Aside from the hand-me-down and jewelry, this outfit cost under $50.

So in this post, I’ll show you how much I bought each piece of item.

And how much they retail according to the sellers.

And I’d also add a link to buy these items from the thrift store or from Amazon.

Let’s begin.

What I wore from the thrift store under $50

I bought most of these items from online reselling platforms except the jacket and white tank top.

The jeans are from Thredup.

The bag is from Poshmark.

And I got the shoes from Mercari.

J-crew jeans from the thrift store

Got these jeans from Thredup.

These J.Crew jeans normally retail for $128, but I bought them for $8.99.

I actually have two pairs of these jeans.

The first pair I bought was described as mid-rise.

And I thought I could rock mid-rise jeans.

But no, they don’t really work for my body type.

Anyway, I tried to get another pair of J.crew jeans that Thredup described as high-rise.

And I got the exact mid-rise J.crew jeans I bought earlier.

So I have two pairs of these toothpick J.crew distressed jeans.

I love them, but I wish at least one were high-rise jeans.

20 Tips For Buying Designer Clothes on Thredup

Denim jacket

This denim jacket was a hand-me-down from a close friend.

I’ve always wanted a denim jacket.

So it was a blessing.

And after having it for weeks, I finally wore it since the weather was warming up.

I loved rolling the sleeves to make the outfit more relaxed and stylish.

This jacket is from Noisy May.

And according to Thredup, they retail for $80. But you can buy them for $14.99 on Thredup.

Old Navy white cami

The Old Navy cami was also a gift.

You can swap the white cami for a basic T-shirt or tank.

And if you don’t want to buy cami or t-shirts from Old Navy, you’ll find lots of high-end white cami on Thredup.

Or check Amazon.

Slingback kitten heels

I love slingback shoes, especially kitten heels.

And recently I’ve fallen in love with nude-colored shoes.

I first bought a pair of nude slingback kitten heels on Mercari.

But I wore the life out of them.

So I had to get a new pair.

These are Lifestride. Bought them from Mercari for $8.

Mercari claims they retail for $20.

Black tote bag

Got this gorgeous tote from Poshmark for $9.

According to the seller, they are Neiman Marcus and retail for $60.

Look at the picture below.

Shop the look

Buy the look on Thredup.

Shop the look on Amazon.
