New Feature: Look 4 Less Style Solution

I've been thinking of doing this for awhile now, but finally decided to make a post about it and do a trial run.

The new feature will be called "Look 4 Less Style Solution" (as indicated by the title of this post). The idea is that you, the readers can email me if you need help finding an outfit for an occasion (perhaps you want a strapless black dress for a bachelorette party or girl's night out that doesn't cost more than $50), or maybe you're looking for something specific (say, nude pumps for under $50) and just don't have the time to scour the internet. I come across a lot of stuff while searching out looks 4 less, so I thought this might be another way to expand my blog.

Since this is just a trial run, I will do the first 10 emails that I get requesting a style solution free of charge to see how it goes (the bottom line is, I want to make sure it's something I have the time/energy for, as well as make sure there is interest). After that, depending whether or not I decide to continue with the service, I will likely charge a reasonable fee to compensate for the amount of time it can take (depending on how specific the search is). I will update with information about that when the time comes.

Please note: I can try and recreate outfits that you've seen on celebrities on a budget, however, I usually leave that up to the blog Fashion Under $100 for that (she does take requests!!) because she's great at it (much better than I am). If you're interested in taking part in this new feature's trial period, please email me at lookforless@gmail.com with your request (put Look 4 Less Style Solution in the subject line please!).

I'm looking for the perfect little black dress under $50. I have a small bust, so I don't think I can do strapless. I also don't like spaghetti straps, and I like halters if they're a little interesting. I love ruffles and full skirts and bows, but I'd like it to be sexy at the same time too. Thanks!

Speaking of nude pumps under $50, yes, that's exactly what I've been looking for. I want some in the style of Jessica Simpson, but I don't want to spend $100.
The other thing I've been looking for is a tie dye dress. I came across one in Glamour magazine that I loved, but I think it was about $130. Silly for a simple jersey number and some Rit. But I'm having the hardest time finding one on the cheap. I'm thinking casual and above the knee. No maxis.

Erin - I have a couple questions about the pumps, so if you don't mind, could you email me?

Here is one tie - dye dress I found just off the top of my head: http://tinyurl.com/p3uv3c

I can continue looking if you like, but again, emailing me is the best way so that I can ask you questions when/if I have them regarding your preferences.

Thanks!
