Finally Friday #3: Double Duty

College, specifically Clarkson University has spent most of my cash for the last 5 years and is still taking my every last penny. Therefor, I have to be creative with my spending cash to get the most bang for my buck. I try to be creative and everything I buy I has more than one use.  Today's top three are items that I purchase that I have found multiple uses  for. Hope You Enjoy!

1. Marshall's Clothes-i love to shop like every other girl but when on a budget I have to be realistic about how much I spend and what I spend it on. My number one rule while shopping is never buy anything unless it can be worn to work as well as on the weekend. This goes for mostly tops and dresses. Some pants are a bit trickier to make abide to this rule but I have gotten better. Here I bought this dress for a fun conservative summer dress but found it to work great with a blazer to wear to work.

 2. Mini Wheats- Specifically the chocolate ones! I love Mini Wheats for breakfast but they also serve as good afternoon or anytime snack. They are the perfect size to just grab a handful of and snack away. I eat these while I am sitting at my desk at work. I have to be honest though rarely do they make it to the next day. Ha!

3.Beer Bottles- So I have been drinking a lot hard cider that comes in beer bottles lately. Its the beginning of September and in my mind it is fall. Obviously beer bottles serve their existing purpose which is to hold yummy hard cider. My new project is to follow this tutorial I found online to turn them into glasses. I want to also etch the homemade glasses to then make then festive for Halloween coming up!

Hope you all have fantastic weekend!
