Everyone Loves a Sale

Sure, I devote my time to finding designer inspired knock-off pieces for you, but that doesn't mean that I don't love the occasional designer dress. And when said dress is on sale I tend to jump for joy.

That is why I love the site 365 Hangers. Their team stylists work hard to find designer pieces and provide them at a fraction of original retail price. Take this cute Marc Jacobs dress. Original price was $298 and they are selling it for just $89!

While they don't have a ton of sizes for each item, they do have extended sizes (YES!) for those of us who don't quite fit into a size 2. MUCH easier than digging through the sale racks at department stores to find deals!

In order to stay in the know on great deals I suggest signing up for their emails or following them on twitter (@365hangers). Happy hunting!

Can't resist this Anthropogie dress

Recently I found myself browsing the racks of my favorite retailer, Anthropologie. I love the store, I really do, but I can't say that I have purchased much. I always find myself in the fitting rooms wondering "what would I wear this with?". I decided to challenge myself and came up with a fun look for colorful summer dress. What would you wear with it?

Patch Things Up

We have all been a situation where we need a quick way to patch up our jeans. Not long ago, I found myself in a desperate situation to fix my favorite pair. I was elated to find a cheap iron-on patch at Michaels. Unfortunately, the patch fell off after just one wash.

Recently I discovered Johnny Patch, a new brand of iron on patches that actually stay on. Instead of scratchy synthetic material, these patches are made of recycled denim. Coming in a range of washes, they have a jean patch for virtually every pair you can imaging. I suggest stocking up on a range of colors because you never know when you are going to need a quick patch! At only $9 (shipping included) they are the perfect way to keep your designer jeans as good as new. If only I had discovered this before wasting my money at Michaels!

Johnny Patch also sells iron on butt pockets, great for updating an old pair of jeans or covering an unsightly hole.

Next time you are in need of a denim fix, I suggest Johnny Patch!
