If you feel like splurging but your wallet is a bit light, consider going vintage (aka 2nd hand and thrift stores). This consignment store is a step up, and often has a nice selection of designer labels at really reasonable prices. At the change of the seasons, look for sales, where you can really pick up a bargain. They have all types of clothing, as well as nice handbags, belts, and even hats. This is a fun place to check out periodically, even if you don't need something special at the moment - you may just find that perfect 'black dress' to keep in your closet
