Stylish for Less: Splurge vs. Steal



Some of you may have noticed that me and Jessica are revamping the content of our blog a little, including starting our first guest post series ( On My Radar) and Two Looks For The Week ( here and here). Another new addition is Stylish for Less where we share great deals, sales, affordable and stylish clothes, and the occasional tips on how to save when shopping. Today I'm sharing a few splurge vs. steal finds.
Splurge vs. Steal Polka Dot Blazers


Anthropologie Blazer / Forever 21 Blazer / Macy's Blazer

Splurge vs. Steal Accessories


Royal Princesse Bib / Dove Princesse Bib / Black J. Crew Bubble Necklace / Green J. Crew Bubble Necklace / CC Skye Bracelet / Topshop Bracelet / ASOS Bracelet

Splurge vs. Steal Trench Coats

    Since I don't have the biggest salary, I always opt for the lesser priced version...most of the times. I love how you've found identical or near identical pieces. Thanks for sharing Tracy!

    That trench is such a good deal! They look so similar. Also, I have debated buying that forever21 blazer for so long. It haunts me.
