Source Welcome to my newly rebranded blog! I have retitled it as Real Chic, Real Cheap because I think that it more accurately reflects my blog's content and my style than it's former name of What I Really Wear. The tagline is the same and the blog's mission is the same: to show real style on a real budget for real women. Just because I'm broke doesn't mean I have to look like … [Read more...]
Restyling a Bridesmaid Dress (For the Third Time)
My husband and I traveled to Maryland recently for our friends’ wedding. We lucked out and were able to save on travel costs because it was the weekend before I had an already scheduled business trip to the same location.

We have been running around like crazy. Of course, I'm … [Read more...]

Gifting Price Points
I love holiday-birthday-wedding- any celebration gift shopping. I enjoy scouring stores looking for that perfect gift for the perfect recipient. Something that hits the right mark and price point. I look for unique items that have the perfect amount of shine: something special that the recipient may not otherwise buy themselves. That means items with unique details that stand … [Read more...]
Mary Kay Clearproof Acne System Review
Hi, my name is Alice and I have whiteheads and zits. I live in southern Louisiana and I work out regularly, so I am sweating a lot and that leads to breakouts more often than not. Yes, I'm thirty, but I still get breakouts and I have always struggled to fend off whiteheads. I've tried lots of different face washes, scrubs, and zit creams. Unfortunately, most anti-acne products … [Read more...]
