    Can you put together an outfit with a budget of £20? Post here!
    Well Hello everyone,

    This is just for a bit of fun....I was little bored with revision So the challenge is:

    Put an outfit together with a budget of £20 (or less)

    The outfit should be a complete one with shoes and accessories!!

    Post up the links or pictures of the products. I don't mean of your own clothes or pictures of yourself...Nope...I mean the clothing etc should be avaliable in stores now so links or pics from websites.

    Also Inlcude the price of each item. We'll see who can come up with a good/stylish outift for the least amount of money.

    I'm going to do abit of research myself and will post my suggestion in abit.

    I think expecting to get an entire outfit on a £20 budget is ridiculous, but I will have a go at this Male clothing obviously.

    This:

    With These:
    http://www.clothingattesco.com/shoes...-shoes-sandals

    And £2.50 spare for some big earrings or something from somewhere cheap like Claires!

    It's not the most substantial outfit because there's only so much yuo can get with £20, but might be okay as a summery daytime outfit with a breezy scarf and sunnies or something?

    It’s a banana costume you don't want to look a fool by adding shoes - just ask the guy in the pic. As for accessories just get a mate to dress up as an orange - BEST ACCESORY EVA!!!
