i always get asked the same question:
"what do you splurge on and what do you buy on sale?"
i am SUCH a penny pincher when it comes to
shopping. it may not seem like it but i'm such
a crazy SALE freak!
i love to splurge on CLASSIC items. pieces
that you know you'll
1. wear forever, can wear forever
and wouldn't really think twice about throwing it on.
("go to" easy pieces!)
2. are beautifully crafted. either made in USA or
Italy or France. I don't mind made in CHINA at all! we
all know alex wang and Rag&Bone is now produced in vietnam
and/or China.. the list goes on. the COO doesn't
mean much to me but the actual design and
workmanship should be noticeably beautiful and clean.
3. lust worthy.
yes. the item will go on salethis fall or summer
(barneys warehouse?? neiman marcus pre sale??netaporter sale?)
but sometimes, you must take the leap.
sometimes they'll sell out before they can even go on sale!
chanel classic flats= never go on sale. just buy it!!
rag and bone chelsea booties? maybe wait for a shopbop promo code!
(ahem CAT!!! LOLZ!)
okay.
so stuff i buy on the CHEEPS!!
i love zara, madewell (sale items), jcrew and
flea markets for my trendier items. i will never and can never
buy cheap jeans. (j brand is right next to my work!)
and its hard to buy cheap shoes now.
know when to buy the cheetah print dress from zara for 80$
and when to splurge on the balenciaga booties for 800$.
don't buy the stupid neon pink chanel flats
that will.......most likely be fugs next season.
speaking of which... right now i'm obsessed with equipment
and ALC blouses..... .look at this beauty!
toats worth the 350 bones it sells for.
i'm wearing a new equipment
blouse tonight for dinner! will post outfit details tomorrow
AKA MY BURSDAY!
