5 Fashion Finds Under $50

tales from the pit by Bonnie Mo | canada (Aug.23.10)    


There's nothing that tickles me more than the thrill of getting a great deal. Like an old woman bragging in the market about her mad haggling skills, I can't help but let everyone know that the necklace I'm wearing was $12 or that my shoes were 90 percent off.

Last summer I happened to be in Paris for the bi-annual, city-wide sale and spent the entire last day of my vacation whipping around town looking to snap up Dior at a discount. Those who know me also know about the time I scored a pair of Louboutins at a Saks shoe sale in New York for a mere $100 (they were marked down from $750). It was epic.

With fall just around the corner, I have my deal radar cranked on high. Here are a few fall fashion bargains I've found for under $50.

It's a Cinch

Season's change and decades pass and yet the trench coat never falls out of style. This camel version from H&M has all the classic touches that make this look so timeless.

Trench coat, $40. Available at H&M.

Ankle Grazing  

As much as I love summer sandals, I always get excited for fall's range of amazing boots. These distressed, slouchy cowboys are a steal.

Boots, $35. Available at Old Navy.

Take Flight

Suddenly I'm all over anything animal-print. And I'm not taking just leopard spots and zebra stripes, I mean cats, horses, snow leopards and my current favourite  — birds.

Wool scarf with birds, $28. Available at www.sears.ca.

 

Swing It 

This cosy sweater only feels expensive. Pair it with skinny jeans and knee-high boots or layer it under your fall coat to stretch out a few more weeks of wear.

Old Navy swing coat sweater, $45. Available at Old Navy

Biker Chic  

I had to do a double-take when I saw the pricetag on this motorcycle jacket. I have a feeling it will look even better with time.

Jacket, $49. Available at Joe Fresh.
