Get Dianna Agron's MET gala dress for under $150!

Dianna Agron was one of our best dressed at this years MET gala held in New York City last week!  We love her look and heres how you can get it for under $150!
Dianna wore a red Michael Kors dress from his Fall 2011 collection.

We suggest:

A red strapless gown from Vampel Dresses for $126

and add...

any bold red necklace to give you a similar neckline, like this one from Sally Jewelry for $20

We (sorta) did it!

Well the weeks over, and M and I were able to eat out everyday for $20 for the whole week!  The last restaurant we ate at was Village Draft House and we were able to order exactly what we wanted.  M spent a total of $9.00, she was able to stay under $20.00 with a little change left over.  I went over the $20 budget, only because of tip, my total was $9.32 and spent a little over $10.00 including the tip.  It goes to show that you can still go out to eat and not spend a fortune.  The trick is to plan out your week and where your going to go and what your going to eat.  Also be conscious of the price and what you have left to spend!

Stay tuned for what we decide to budget for next! Hint hint, we may be going somewhere!

Day 3:

Hello once again,
Today we M & I managed to only spend $7.00 total for the whole day!  You'll never guess the restaurant where we managed to pull this off...... Bonefish Grill! Many of you may know, but probably some of you do not know about Bonefish's special they offer every Wednesday.  The Bang Bang Shrimp is not only the best thing you may ever eat, but on wednesday's it's only $5.00!  We HIGHLY recommend this dish, it's a good portion that you'll be able to take some to-go for leftovers!

M today spent $7.00 which brings her total to $10.96, leaving her with $9.04 for the rest of the week!
I also spent $7.00 today bringing my total to $10.26, giving me $9.74 for the remaining of the week!

We'll be sure to fill you in tomorrow!

Day 2

Welcome Back and time to reflect on another great bilancio chic day! Today S spent a record low... can you guess how much that is? Well she spent zero dollars and did this while eating out for breakfast. She went to Brueggers for breakfast and at Brueggers she got a cinnamon bagel with cream cheese for FREE. Wow awesome job to S. I also got my asiago cheese bagel, with garden cream cheese for free. But I splurged on a diet soda from the vending machine. So my total for today was $1.25. 

• S's total for this week is $3.26
• My total for this week is $3.96

Come back tomorrow to see how we stay Bilancio Chic at Bonefish Grill

Our Favorite Fashionistas of the MET Gala

1. Dianna Agron looks beautiful in salsa red and look at that neckline!

2. Taylor Swift stepping out of her box last night and she looks stunning, ditching the sparkles and sequins for this costume gala!

3. Zoe looking great in Calvin Klein. We love this dress because it is simple and classy. Queen Elizabeth must be a new trendsetter with this pastel yellow!

Stay tuned to get looks like these still being bilancio chic!

Day 1:

After planning out our week, we began our first day with excitement! The first place to get crossed off our list was Morning Times, a small coffee shop downtown that was recommended to us.  We decided to get a breakfast bagel to-go at our cafeteria because it was free.  At the coffee shop M got an infused iced tea and I got an ice-brewed coffee with vanilla syrup.  For dinner we went to Pei-Wei and each got the kids Honey Seared Chicken.  For each of us today, we ate for less than $4, because we had a gift certificate for Pei-Wei, which equals FREE, which we like!
M: Morning Times: $2.71
     $20.00 - $2.71 = $18.29 remaining for the week
S: Morning Times: $3.26
     $20.00 - $3.26 = $16.74 remaining for the week
