Designer on the Cheap


As fashion week forges ahead, you may dream of a day you can afford those designer digs you see on the runways. Fear not, there is a plethora of discount websites you can get last seasons must haves at a fraction of the price. Below are a few of my favs, which cover every price point. They are all members only, and some require either joining a waiting list for membership, or getting an invite from a friend. When you're in though, pass on to your entire address book, because when a friend joins and places an order, you get a credit, depending on the site, anywhere from $10 to $30. 
There are hundreds of these sites out there, post ones you know and love in comments. I've listed just a sampling of the ones I browse on a regular basis.
Happy Shopping!
