The Frugal Bandwagon | Fashion on a Dime
https://fashiononadime.wordpress.com/2009/09/25/the-frugal-bandwagon
Fashion on a Dime. It’s funny how quickly fashion magazines latched on to the idea of bargain-priced fashion when the economy tanked. One magazine I subscribe to touted “Everything in this issue under $100! 8221; What left an impression on me was how the editors were both amazed by the cheaper fashion looking so good and the hard time they had searching for it. Please. Ladies, you need to get out of Manhattan once in a while, for your audience? We know how to do that every day. Be the first to comment!

Fashion on a Dime. The bracelet that came was huge! So to the wearing. This wears well. It scratches easily, which is not good for someone like me who is rough on anything on my wrist. The brochure explains the cleaning procedure – a good buff with high-gloss car polish (think NuFinish). I’ve not tried it, but I imagine with all the crevices, that’s going to be a tedious process. But does it have healing properties? Hard to say, but I didn’t have hip pain, either, and that’s been with me for ...My conclu...

Fashion on a Dime. When Your Outfit Becomes a Costume. We’ve all made the mistake of putting together that outfit that echoes a theme only to overdo the entire thing by sticking too much to the theme. Consider a pair of sailor pants paired with a striped top and, god forbid, accompanied by a sailor hat. A little too Cracker Jack or Popeye for me, thank you. But what about other trends? Suppose you have a gorgeous pair of 40s-inspired shoes? If you pair it with a great 40s-inspired dress, is that too much?

Fashion on a Dime. So how is the recession affecting your purchases? If you’re like me and you’re already a bargain shopper, it’s tough to see the difference in what you buy now versus pre-economic meltdown. But there are areas where I’ve made some changes to save a few more bucks. Have you? Found an old friend –. Took advantage of retail drought. Bought more investment pieces. Replaced expensive facial scrubs with… table sugar. What have you cut back on? Are you still splurging once in a while? Another ...

Fashion on a Dime. Given the latest push for environmentally friendly, well, everything, magazines have been touting the benefits of organic beauty products. I’m a skeptic by nature, so it takes more than the word of an editor who’s probably pressed to fill space to get me to buy. It takes a sale. Luckily, I found the 40 Carrots. Line of beauty products on sale recently. I picked up the Carrot Mango Moisture Splurge. And the Carrot C Vitamin Serum. First came out with its Anew. About Fashion on a Dime.

Fashion on a Dime. Shoes, Shoes, Shoes…. Tell me why I continue to buy shoes. I’ve bought one really cute, functional pair of heels and have bids on two more pairs on eBay that are just cute. I convince myself I need these. They’re essentials. Black and brown are essentials, right? No real way to explain away the purple pumps – oh wait, they’re good with jeans. October 19, 2008.

Fashion on a Dime. If you look good, you feel good. It’s why fashion has made such an impact on our society and our lives. And thanks to one company, feeling good is part of the business model.
