How Do You Find Designer Brands For Less?
Like many of you I am on a strict budget. I look at fashion magazines, films and television and see beautiful clothing and accessories that I can’t afford. As a matter of fact most of my wardrobe comes in at around $15 per piece and I make most of my jewelry. Over the last year I have found myself wanting some more fashionable pieces (translation expensive) that are made to last longer. It took me a while but I have found a way to have them. The first place I check are the outlet stores. These are brand-centric and usually carry the latest fashions at deep discounts. In addition they will often accept gift cards and coupons used in the regular stores. Another plus is they are often located near tourist destinations (giving me a chance to combine a beach visit with saving money). Discounts vary from store to store but you can usually count on a savings of at least 20% and up to 90%. Heads up: Check materials for problems. Always try on clothing and shoes (tags may show the wrong size).
