Valentine’s outfits that won’t break the bank
What should you wear when your bank account is suffering from that night on Demonbreun?
Vanderbilt girls are obviously well dressed, and we know it. No matter where we are, we know how to rock some of the trendiest outfits that exist. But it becomes a problem when we can’t afford to buy outfits for every event because we bought one too many drinks at South that Thursday night.
Luckily, there are different ways to wear one staple piece and the best part about it is it’s cheap and it helps us keep our fashionable reputation.
Coat: Forever 21, Top: Express, Jeans: Express, Shoes: Lolashoetique
Denim on denim is a trend that hasn’t gone out of style yet, and it’s so easy to do. This is for the Vandy girl who wants to look dressy enough for dinner at Cabana with the girls, but doesn’t want to put in much effort.
The balance of dark denim to camel is perfect, and it adds a slimming effect that we all love. This look can easily be dressed down with a pair of flats, too.

The next look is dressy, yet minimalistic. This type of outfit is for the Vandy girl that loves being in the center of attention, whether you’re at Dan’s or Desano. Black and nude is a great combo, and the shoes make it more edgy. The stark contrast of black and nude gives people something to talk about.
Wear this if you want to look stylish and edgy while shopping around Green Hills. Slip off the jacket for the perfect transition from a day to night outfit and go downtown. You’re sure to turn some heads.
Bodysuit: Naked Wardrobe, Skirt: Naked Wardrobe
Shoes: Lolashoetique
Tonal looks and suede are a necessity for the Vanderbilt girl that wants to stay on top of winter trends in order to get that cute guy’s attention at a pregame. These two shades of brown are so simple, yet totally eye-catching when put together.
When he takes you to Jeni’s, this is the perfect outfit. It’s classy, romantic, and bound to get you that second date you want.

Finally, I dressed the coat down with some distressed jeans and sneakers. This neutral combination is perfect for the Vanderbilt girl who loves a tomboyish look, but wouldn’t mind getting a few compliments while walking through Rand.
Olive is so hot right now, and it adds the perfect splash of color without being too much. If you want to be comfortable and look fashionable while sitting in a Tuesday/Thursday class, this type of outfit is the one you need. It blends fashion and street style flawlessly.
