Spend It or Save It: The Affordable Way to Dress Designer

We’ve all been there, walking through Nordstrom’s and eyeing that pair of Stuart Weitzman boots or that Dior statement tee. We dream about it and really want to make the purchase, but something holds us back. What, exactly? The ridiculously high price tag, of course. Lucky for you, inexpensive knock-offs do exist so you can rock the trend without going broke.

B-Low the belt

Whether it be Gucci or Hermès, it’s hard to justify spending over $350 for one accessory at this point in our lives. Even the trendy double buckle belt that Selena Gomez has been wearing at $185 is a wee bit pricy. If you’re like me and still have a deep desire to participate in the trend nonetheless, then read below for this style steal.
