The Look for Less – Tina Fey

Apr
30th
2008

Tina, you are hilarious. Absolutely loved Baby Mama. And I’m digging the nautical-esque look you have going on here. Can I please copy this general idea, but spend about $2,000 less? Okay, thanks.

So, here’s another celebrity-inspired outfit for a fraction of what the original items cost. Let me know what you all think, and if you have enough time, explore Polyvore and try to beat my deal!

  • “The Sweetheart” Curvy Jean – Old Navy: $34.50
  • PPQ Stripe Top – Oli: $43.27 (I know I can do better than this… Disgraceful!)
  • Ruched Front Cardigan – Dorothy Perkins: $35.40
  • Strappy Knot Wedge – Go Jane: $15.99
  • Squared Corner Color Frames – House of Sunglasses: $9.99

I had to add the glasses… come on, it’s Tina. :)

  1. Wow I could NOT find any cheaper shirts like that, wtf? I give up, you win! ;)

  2. CUTE shoes. $15?? what the. oh I forgot how much I love summer and open toe wedges. sigh.

    Hey do you JC Penny’s jeans shrink at all? I’m having issues with my “for heels” jeans becoming “for flats” jeans, and having four pairs of “for flats” jeans is no fun because I only on like two flats, and I am not a big fan of either.

  3. I LOVE Old Navy’s the Diva jeans. Seriously.

    I’m getting some new glasses soon, kind of like that. Of course, I’ve fallen in love with some Prada one. Thank god, I found them from a site that sells designer frames WAY cheap!

  4. I love your profile description btw- love that you mention you dye your own hair & come from a family with manners. Too cute!

    Your take on Tina Fey’s outfit is great! It’s such a good outfit — casual, cute and fun. Those wedges are so cute (dang, I need a new adjective for cute! ha.) and such a freakin good deal! Oh and I’m glad you added the glasses– I have a fake pair from Claire’s that I wear sometimes!

  5. so cute. I agree with Steph, those shoes are adorable, especially for that price!

    I must see Baby Mama. Almost everone that’s seen it has absolutely loved it!

  6. I just need you to know, I’m obsessssssed with Tina Fey.

  7. I’m buying the wedges. I dunno what I’m going to wear them with, but I’m buying the wedges.

    I actually have the glasses already.

  8. Such an inspirational post. I love it!
    Why splurge if we can get the same classy impression?
    Keep on inspiring us!
