Alternative School

My clothing budget is pretty small as a grad student so I often have to find inexpensive alternatives to the things that I really want.  Case in point... I love the Lunar Cycles top from Anthropologie (no longer available online) but Anthropologie is way out of my price range (even on sale sometimes)!

 

So I've been looking for a cheaper alternative and I came across this top from Forever 21 ($18).

What do you think? Should I keep looking?

Ultimately I want to recreate this look from Molly over @ Anthromollogies...



Really cute summer outfit don't you think?!
