Trying to be fashion forward while your purse strings are being tightly pulled can be easier then you think. For affordable shopping try Target- every couple of months they have Go International line and they features high end designers to replicate their designs that are friendly to your wallet but still have the runway quality. Another great store is Old Navy- this month they show case some of the hot trends for spring including mini florals on shirts, skirts and dresses. New York and Company have special sales and promotions every month that help you save and look great. When you turn on the TV and hear “in this tough economy….” Don’t stress- you can always look great and pay less- remember- shopping is the best therapy not to mention a great way to stimulate the economy!!
