What's the point?????
To prove that one can have hip clothes at affordable prices. I love Express, but seeing that money is tight I can't just spend $60 bucks on a sweater even if its buy one get one half off! Some argue that you get what you pay for....and this is often true. In my opinion, some styles aren't worth that much cash. Staples, like the black ribbed cardigan will stay stylish for a long time-----so its worth the investment. Whereas the bedazzled sweater can date quickly and so I wouldn't spend $60 on it. I did choose simple styles and select stores. The whole point was to show how one can save money and still look good. This isn't bargain shopping or thrifting....but its saving pennies!
