Grab your dads, your boyfriends, your brothers etc etc baggy t-shirt and maybe even a denim shirt if he has one? The denim shirts can be found for expensive in high street shops, or try looking in charity shops. The guaranteed options are vintage shops. Leather satchels are always in- you can find them for cheap in Primark. You see, baggy can be slimming, as long as you don't over do it and make yourself look frumpy. Complete with small boots, here she is wearing black dessert boots. Accessorise by a simple necklace, here she is wearing a small gold cross necklace.

Tie dye
Go to Primark. Get a plain white tee. Get tie dye. And perhaps learn how to use tie dye and voila! You have everything you need to make a tie dye top, avoiding spending a large amount of money in Topshop on a tie dye top or even no money as you simply cannot find one!
If you have no vintage shops near by a lot of them now have online shoes like Rokit or Beyond Retro. Or if you are going to a festival this summer, there is often vintage stalls around the festival which are reasonably priced.
As for the battered converse, STOP trying to keep yours clean, give up, it won't happen, and don't put them in the wash. Eventually, they will look like these bad boys. I hate having glowing clean white things on my feet..it just doesn't go with the look.
DIY
If you don't have a pair of high waisted shorts, you are missing out because they are so versatile and have become a personal live saver of mine in those moments of "I don't know what to wear". Wear with a small belt to give an hourglass figure and to show off that waist. Here she has paired it with a simple strapless top, these can be found in H&M for cheap as chips! Look in vintage shops for the shorts where you can get them this style for a reasonable price. Another wardrobe must is a silky flowy shirt like this, again it is very versatile.
Wear with any shoes, whether canvas, dolly, or boots.
Aztec + lace
Lace top is from Topshop, but a very long time ago. But lace is in, it can be found in places like H&M for cheap. The aztec leggings are from H&M, but can also be found in most shops. I am wearing dessert boots from a little shop in Florence, Italy. Check Amazon for an affordable pair. Here I am wearing my lovely snakeskin bag from River Island.
