Splurge a little, Save a Lot

May 29, 2007

When you find yourself longing for those Prada shoes or that Louis Vuitton bag you've been eyeing for months, remember that one piece can help make an otherwise frugal outfit look fabulous! If you keep to the basics or find clothes that are fashionable but inexpensive, you can always add those more extravagant pieces to pull everything together into a chic and timeless outfit. Below is an outfit at a reasonable price that stands out even more with a dash of designer bling.

I was scouring the Web the other night, and came across some great deals. And, even better, is a new (well, new to me!) site I found called Mango. They have some really chic clothes and great deals. Here is a sample of some of my finds...


These shoes are from last season, but I don't think they'll be going out of style any time soon, so hurry up and grab a pair from Shopbop.com for only $57 (originally $119)!!
