Poppy's Closet

This year was tough for P and me. Last year we had fab nannying jobs, we were making money and had the wardrobes to show for it. Last semester was not the case. We were jobless, broke, and not used to either. Regardless, job or no job, life must go on.

Getting dressed to go out was a bitch. We'd sit around going through our same clothes, and frantically try to make something cute out of them. Somehow every weekend we'd make it work. We'd laugh at how we managed to take our regular clothes, and turn them into fashion forward cute outfits.

After a while P and I realized that we kinda had a knack for creating fresh looks out of our old clothes. We consider ourselves recessionistas. So, we decided to share our gift with you all. Every week, we'll post some ideas of how to freshen up your look without spending a dime, and for those of you who have a little money to spend, we'll suggest a few key items that are pivotal in every girl's wardorobe.
