What to Wear: $2,463 Worth

Real, boring life can be so expensive. Just this morning I dropped $2,463.68 in the mailbox for boring bills. Taxes, new tires, DMV renewal, cable bill, etc. I wish I could have spent that money on something fun instead! Something like this spring outfit:

• Dress – DVF classic wrap dress in a vintage red and white pattern for $325.
• Trench – This Prada trench doesn’t seem so unreasonable at $710 after you’ve just sent the same amount to the state capitol.
• Shoes – Gucci metallic leather wedges with a peep toe and a cork heel for $495.
• Clutch – I love how well this Kenneth Cole clutch for $158 goes with the shoes and earrings.
• Earrings – From Anthropologie for $178.
• Flowers – All tea roses, tulips and peonies from Church Street flowers for about $100.

Add a good spray tan ($50), some fresh new make-up ($100), a box of chocolates ($20) and a blow-out ($50)…now that’s the right way to spend $2,400!
