Blog: Penny Pincher Fashion

Why we love her: This girl may proudly call herself a penny pincher, but it sure doesn’t show. She easily balances the feminine with fashionable and manages to look runway-ready, regardless of the season.

Kimberly’s Outfit Inspiration: “I am obsessed with pleated skirts for spring/summer and this one is such a fun, girly color. A structured white top and a statement necklace give it some sophistication, while the leopard pumps add some sass. I can also dress this maxi down with a chambray shirt and flat sandals — versatility at its best!”
