I am a firm believer in retail therapy. It’s a terrible confession to make as a cheapskate but I can’t help that wonderful feeling I get when I find the perfect dress (skirt, jeans, bag, shoes etc…) for the perfect price.
Mind you, I am still a very, very frugal shopper. For example, rarely will I buy anything over $50. Not such a wonderful feeling when I browse the racks of beautiful clothing at a trendy boutique and realize that every single item is way out of my price range.
There is still hope for us, frugal fashionistas, you just have to know where to look.
