these are the pants I like they are from jcpenneys because I have a gift card already

A&A'smommy replied: and this is the shirt I like from gap but I wasn't sure if it would go okay with the pants wink.gif very casual but i'm having trouble finding anything else that is that cheap wink.gif

coasterqueen replied: Well the shirt will match the pants, both are cute btw wink.gif. BUT if it were me I'd try to find a shirt in one of the colors of the pant cuff to accentuate (sp?). Course I am a fashion nightmare so take my advice for what it's worth,lol.

A&A'smommy replied:
I have been trying but jcpenney has NOTHING that I like and gap doesn't have very much that would look good on my body and I can't think of anywhere else to look SO ALL suggestions are helpful lol!!!

coasterqueen replied: What about Kohls? Do you have one of those? They have a website online you can order from and a lot of their clothes are cheap.

Mommy2BAK replied: we have been on a tight budget here too. wacko.gif So lately I have been getting my clothes from Target an Wal-Mart blush.gif . I know what your thinking, but I have found some really cute stuff. And if you don't have a target near you, you could always have it shipped, a lot of the time they offer free shipping! wink.gif smile.gif

ammommy replied:
Do you have Kohl's? They have a line called 9&co that has cute, trendy (but wearable) clothes that is usually 30-50% off. I'd definately do something other than a white t-shirt. That makes it look like a uniform. If you want to do a t-shirt, try to find a color that's similar to one in the stripe. That's my 2cents.gif

Kaitlin'smom replied: what about old navy?

I am not a fan of white simply casue i always seems to get something on it any other color I am fine but white...... tongue.gif

I to have gotten some things from target, wal mart and yes even Kmart its hard to find things but on occasion I do and so much cheeper, espically Jeans I found the most compy pair at walk mart I have to go get more

gr33n3y3z replied: old navy or kohls

mammag replied: I like them and think they will look good together. I agree, try Walmart or Kmart if you have time. It will take you a while longer because you really have to look and definitely try on because some of the stuff looks okay on the rack and really odd when you put it on. I was in a bind the other night for the meeting I had and didn't have enough time to get to Kohls (HUGE Fan of Kohls!!!) but the Walmart is around the corner. It took me some trying on but I found a cute button up shirt to wear and it actually looks really nice. If you go with the white shirt, Walmart has some cute jewelry that you could get in a color to match the cuffs of the pants and maybe pick up a cute pair of thongs (flip flops....not underwear) to match the jewelry. Throw in a cute toe ring and you've got an outfit.

mysweetpeasWil&Wes replied: Both are cute, but I would go with a top that is a little more versatile. Meaning, something you can dress up in the evening and tone down during the day. So maybe something with a V-neck (sexier) or a button down front. Plain white just looks like one of my DH's undershirts. I buy a lot of cute tops at Target. Totally inexpensive, great colors, and they keep up with the trends. I also, and this is just me, would get the capris fitted. My sister taught me this. Don't get them too baggy because they always stretch out and I hate when they are too lose and frumpy looking. IMO. I'm not saying get them so tight that you have you know what in the front, but I would make sure they fit in the legs. I think capris can shorten legs if they're not the right fit. They look cute with the right pair of heels too!

A nice button down cotton shirt would dress it up for work too. Or maybe one of those cute fabric belts with sequins or something. All can be found at Target or I also like TjMaxx and Marshalls. Or just go to a fabric store and get a swatch of fabric for a cute belt!

AshleyRose replied: Hey!! I am pretty plain and wear shirts like that all the time and I love white because it goes with everything. So IMO, I like it. I am a huge fan (especially since I have had Paris) of the long skirt with a plain not too tight top. The skirts I buy and have are all either elastic band waist or drawstring and also wrap aroudn skirts. Also, ebay has great stuff too.. dont forget. I just started getting into it and LOVE LOVE LOVE it! I found a pair of funky cute elastic band pants for 1.99!!!!! Can't get better than that!!!! thumb.gif

HTH smile.gif

A&A'smommy replied: oops I forgot to say that I ended up buying a different pair of capris from the same place and a shirt that was on sale from old navy, they are really cute after I get paid I think I'm going to buy that outfit up there but that is in a a month (working for schools you only get paid once a month wink.gif )
