Fashion Steals!

I was inspired to start this thread by seeing the numerous deals TFSers here are scoring. Its all nice and good to buy designer but you can't deny the satisfaction you get from buying something great that makes your wallet happy as well. It amazes me to see what professional shoppers some of you are!

Seriously, in another thread I saw someone find some nice vintage boots for just €10! Show off your finds here!

(or even post items similar to more expensive ones that are much less like they do in the mags)

I got a Lucky brand top for $3.75 at Nordstrom Rack one time...that's also where I can get evening gowns that were over $100 for $50 or less. Well, they actually don't carry evening gowns, just shorter dresses.

Also a pair of Tommy Girl stilettos at Ross for $10 that last time I checked, were going on eBay for over $40.

Good week of bargains.

I just bought 2 classic Vans slip ons (one for me and one for a friend). $19 dollars on sale then if you buy a 2nd pair its half off so the other was just $10 bucks. Originally $40

I went vintage hunting and found a dress for $1, a beautiful bead necklace for $9 and a cameo for $4

Earl Jeans sweater for the boyfriend. $29 that was originally $110.
