As a student, I know what it's like to have to scrimp. However much I wish I could afford luxury products, I have to realise it's entirely unrealistic. I'm used to eating value food and I've adapted to living value throughout, from Clothes to Makeup. Instead of shopping in MAC for a foundation like I once may have, I now have to dig through Collection 2000 and Miss Sporty to find a more cost effective approach.
My aim of this post is to show you how there really is no need to go splashing the cash when all you have is pennies! I have shown below two white blazers, both are tailored to a flattering shape, have pockets and a feminin collar. The main difference that cannot be seen by the eye is the price. One is priced at £195.00 and the other at £14.99, just take a second to see if you can tell which one is which.
These two blazers are Worlds apart yet for somebody who wants to wear on trend pieces at budget prices it's perfect. The left blazer is from H&M and the right is a Tux from Unique Topshop. Another example is the leather jacket, I personally have a leather jacket which i spent quite a bit of money on a few years ago but the great thing about a leather jacket is that it is ALWAYS wearable, never really fades from the forefront of fashion and lasts forever.

The two leather jackets I have shown here are very different in price, one listed at £49.99 from Missguided and the other at £225.00 from Topshop Boutique. The obvious difference you will find when looking at cheaper jackets is the faux and real leather. A faux jacket can still be good, don't be scared off! As long as it is quilted and you treat it with care, it can be just as good!

Finally, I big trend for A/W 2012 and I believe we will see it continue into 2013 is the skater skirt. The most common skater skirt has to be the leather/faux leather style. I have shown two above, one faux and one real leather with a price difference of around £85.00. To the eye, they are not all that different, I currently own the missguided one shown above and it is very nice if I may say so myself!
I have shown a link below showing a selection of online stores, with a variation of prices.
