Shopping tips: Designer shopping for less
While I’m not a complete designer snob, I do appreciate the higher quality that designer clothes typically represent. However, I am often unable to afford to make the investment that many designer clothes and accessories require. It made me smile when Target began partnering with designers to create lower cost collections for their stores. Early on, we started to see Issac Mizrahi, Mossimo and Converse added to the Target brands that we have come to know and love. Even before Target began partnering with designers, their clothing was typically much more preferred by the fashionable but budget conscious community. Once they began introducing lines by well known high end designers, their clothing and accessories improved even more. Now, Target is a great shopping destination for those budget conscious fashionistas.
Well Target decided to amp up its designers collections by releasing capsule collections from different designers as a part of their Go International section. This is great for us Clueless Fashionistas who often don’t know how to start incorporating designer brands into our wardrobes and may not be willing or able to pay the higher prices. Well you can visit Target now and browse their Go International collections and learn about different designers. Currently they are featuring apparel by Thakoon, a designer that’s very popular with the high fashion set. Now the line is available to virtually everyone at Target. I recommend that you stop in and pick up some of his pieces out but do it quickly because it will be gone after January 31. Check out the website at www.thakoon.com and then compare it to the Target line. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised. Another designer currently being featured at Target is Hayden-Harnett handbags. Typically those handbags can run upwards of $700 or more but the Target collection ranges from $19.99 to $44.99 without sacrificing the high end look and quality. Check out the website at www.haydenharnett.com.
Go forth and shop Clueless Fashionistas! I know that the economy isn’t doing very well and we all have to cut back but Target is making it possible for us to cut back without looking like it and that’s why its one of my favorite stores.

Thx for the tips! They will save me a lot of money
You’re very welcome. Stay tuned for more tips on being fashionable without breaking the bank. That’s something I’m always striving for.
Belive me, I’ve tried and it’s not so easy to spend less
I will have to eat my credit card 
My problem is I buy too much.
I do agree that spending less can be hard for someone who’s accustomed to a certain level of spending. You do seem to understand that it could be an issue but while you work on that, I would recommend changing your shopping habits a bit so that you can get the most out of your spending levels. Target is a great place to shop and get more bang for your buck. This might help in the long run because your wardrobe will start to increase to the point where you won’t “need” to go shopping as often. Good luck!
