The most awkward pair

[Nickeywonder]

So I got to thinking about how my wardrobe kinda has a weird twist. I have my $10 Walmart shirt paired with my $600 handbag [emoji23][emoji23], but....IT WORKS! List some of your awkward parings...just curious [emoji4]

Such pairings do not feel awkward to me. Are my style.
Wearing head-to-toe of 1 brand, or everything showy/pricey, would feel boring.

Here are a few jumbles, in earlier posts on forum:
Your Hermes in action!
blouse=charity resale shop
necklace=roberto coin

Hope helps.

I'm not big into clothes, but I love bags, so I always have an expensive bag with cheap clothes! Clothes fall apart and are not meaningful to me. I expect my bags to last a lifetime.

Love this thread! I'm like most posters here - clothes from lots of different vendors, including Walmart (quality at an affordable price) and carry an LV handbag. As another TPF'er once said "We're luxury ninjas."

Thanks for letting me share.

Today's outfit is pretty much what I wear on an everyday basis - at least the style direction and prices:
Sneakers By Ecco (bought for 50€)
Jeans, 35e
Knit by Selected Homme, 29€
Bag, today it's DKNY ~200€ but it could be Mulberry, DvF, Longchamp or AW just as well.
When I travel, I usually rock a hoodie, jeans and a bag I don't need to worry over (like a Pacsafe backpack or LC LP) and get really lousy service from lousy SA's. The good ones know enough not to judge a book by its' cover.

I always do things like that - a cheap t-shirt and a highend bag...
But seldom vice versa: I would rather not wear a Euro 10,- Backpack with Tom Ford stuff.
Maybe it comes from the saying that you could wear a potato sack with good shoes but not a highend dress with tacky galoshes...
I think there is something to this as the bag/shoes enhace or depreciate (is this the right word?) an outfit.

Never heard this saying before but I like it!!

I spend very little on clothes and most come from Penneys (Primark) but I could carrying be Chanel or Michael Kors! One of my favourite ways to style my Chanel is with my Adidas Superstars. I love the juxtaposition. I think it's cool!
