At a massive thrift store like Value Village or Salvation Army, you are almost guaranteed to come across two things: black dress pants and windbreakers. Assuming you are not interested in the latter, black dress pants are certainly an item worth looking for.
Why? Because black dress pants don't need to be brand spanking new to look good. In fact, black dress pants can cost you less than $5 if you are willing to hunt. Spend your money on fitted blazers or eye-popping jewelry, items that are more distinguishable when it comes to quality.
After discovering the perfect pair of $2 pants at Salvation Army, I thought it would be fun to see how many different ways I could wear such a simple item.
Top: Zara. Pants: Mossimo (second hand), $2. Shoes: Zara. Clutch: Gap, $15.
This ensemble is an easy change after a long day at work. Simply throw a feminine looking top into your bag, and transform yourself from working lady to gal on the go. I'm a big fan of drapey, sheer tops that a) lets me eat whatever food I want and b) distracts people from noticing my $2 pants.
Check back the next few days for five different ways to wear one very, very cheap pair of pants.
