Houndstooth on a Budget

I am all about the houndstooth lately. Let me tell you, houndstooth is here to stay. It is definitely a classic print and I think everyone should have something of it in their closet.  But you shouldn’t have to pay a lot to do so…and you don’t have to!
Here’s my picks…
houndstooth on a budget

Box Clothing Houdstooth Dress – $22 – This dress from Box Clothing is perfection.  I am a big fan of dresses with this cut because they are comfortable, classic, and flattering.  I talked about transition pieces in my last fashion post and this is another one — it would look perfect with tights and peacoat but you could easily pair it with spring colors (how fun would neon be?).

Coated Houndstooth Moto Jacket – $14.75 – This funky jacket definitely looks more than fifteen buckaroos, and could be way too cute with black skinny jeans and tall boots.

Bundled Up Cropped Jacket – $69.99 – As a working girl, I can’t get enough jackets like this.  They instantly make an outfit look more professional, and it’s always freezing in my office.  Anybody else have an icebox for an office?


Calvin Klein Houndstooth Dress – $46.90 (On major sale – originally $134) – I mean hello sexy business lady. Could the piping on this dress be any more flattering?

Vera Moda Houndstooth Jeans – $23.68 (On sale from $84) – Way to make houndstooth a neutral.  Houndstooth just might be the new leopard y’all.

Houndstooth Pencil Skirt – $8.80 – Literally my lunch today cost me more money.  Can’t get over it.

ASOS Houndstooth Snood – $15.83 – I love snoods!  I always feel so silly wearing them in California but they are so stinking cute.

What are your feelings on houndstooth?  A closet staple or no?
xoxo,

    I love the title of your blog! Mainly because I identify with it – I have such expensive taste and definitely a beer budget {or if there's something cheaper than beer, then that's the budget I have!} Love your picks for houndstooth on a budget, especially the scarf 🙂
