Deals, Steals, and Bargains!

I think it's time we talked bargains. There are quite a few to be had if you know where to look. How about Jil Sander pants for like, $14.99? Deals like this are at one of my favorite stores, UAL. I've told ya'll about this place before. I saw this particular "steal" about 2 weeks ago. Now, Jil Sander at that price isn't the norm there but it's not far off. Lanvin, Prada, Oscar, Velvet, and many others are majorly discounted, 75 to 80% off! Then, there are the unknown European designer pieces from $9.99 and up. Some are sample pieces so be sure and try on. They also carry shoes, evening wear, some vintage furs, and great jewelry. One of my favorites though are the jeans at $9.99 and they fit like a glove! And the girls there are knowledgeable and helpful. I love that place. Another great place to check out is the cute little boutique by the Brentwood Target. Blush. They have some really cute pieces at extremely reasonable prices. The inventory is fairly low and kept to a minimum. They carry a range of somewhat edgy pieces mixed with more feminine things. There is a wall of shoes and limited jewelry. One of my favorite things there are the camis in a wide range of colors. Also look at the cute jackets and coats. They get shipments regularly so the merchandise changes frequently. The next place is an old standby but with a new designer on board, the looks are changing. Ann Taylor and AT Loft. AT is getting a makeover with more feminine, hipper styles. Not so cookie cutter business looking. AT Loft is more soft, casual, and fun and is doing its' own version of a tee shirt with chiffon, ribbony detailing. There are 3 or 4 styles that are on sale now for $19.50 I think. These are great layering pieces. The one above is an expample. I hope this helps you hold on to some more of your money but yet get some cute things. If you need help at any one of these places or any other area of your wardrobe, give me a call. Thanks for reading! post signature
