Look Great on the Cheap -- Thrift Store Fashion Shoot :: Hair Plus Salon and Michael Gowin Photography, Lincoln, IL

Emma, thrift store fashion :: Hair Plus Salon and Michael Gowin Photography, Lincoln, IL

Want to look good but only have a few bucks?

Two words: thrift stores.

Diana Pickett, owner of Hair Plus Salon here in Lincoln, and I wanted to find out how much you could get for how little, so we set up a "thrift store fashion shoot." We sent four models out to some thrift stores in Lincoln, then to Diana's salon for hair and makeup, and finally to the studio for photographs. Emma is pictured above in an outfit that cost just a couple dollars.

If you click over to the New Herald News, there's a story and more photos from the session there.

Check back here soon--I'll have a behind-the-scenes video so you can see what the photo shoot was like.

Many thanks to Diana, her assistant Nichole, and our other models: Hannah, Emma, and Sheralyn.
