I don't know about you, but when my fashion magazines start to arrive in November I get thrilled to see what gift ideas they have put together. I regret to inform you that none of the editors have stopped to realize that some Americans have been laid off or their hours have been cut to a minimum this season. While I knew I wouldn't be able to afford the luxury items that they put on the first couple of pages, I quickly turned to "Holidays on a Budget". Disappointed wouldn't give my mood justice, $150 for an Armani Exchange sweater was the cheapest item on the two pages. In the economic hardships are country is facing it almost makes me ashamed of the editors to not take this into consideration while making there picks. I should mention the magazines I'm looking in are not Vogue, W or Bazaar but Glamour, Marie Claire, Teen Vogue etc. So should we spent our entire budget on a $150 sweater, I would think not. I'm devoted to finding you gifts this season all for under 25. Keep checking back, lets call it.. Holidays on a Budget....for the rest of us.
Happy Holidays

Shoes, Belts, Tee's, Blouses, Booties... Is this all sounding familiar? I know its my first language. Fashion has always been my number one passion and I've always found it easy to indulge in it. Lately though I've heard a lot of women tell me they can't indulge in fashion. I SAY: Lets put a stop to that, there are ways around a $500 Betsey Johnson party dress, or those Jimmy Choo shoes you want. I'm here to show you how to have the closet of stars on a budget of pennies.
