Recessionista Rules: A Survival Guide for the Flailing Fashionista

Label lovers will find this rule laughable and outside the realm of reality, but that does not negate the fact that knock-offs can no longer be relegated to a lower class of fashion find. Embrace the look-alikes and make them your own for pennies on the dollar.

Ugh, right?! However, every savvy shopper knows that doing the research never goes out of style. Gone are the days when we can waltz into any retail empire and stake our claim. Now, it's just plain common sense to shop around for the best price before indulging in the thrill of the kill.

You may think you've got it all figured out, but remember: everyone loves a good multi-tasker. Make sure you're investing in a wallet that can double as a clutch or a tote that doubles as a week-ender. Dazzle your friends and family with your ingenuity!
