Outfit Details:
black lace button up - Century 21
Milly dress - Century 21
Rebecca Minkoff Boy Toy Satchel - c/o Rebecca Minkoff
Jeffrey Campbell heels - Century 21
Gee, do you think I took a trip to Century 21? I actually forgot to post these photos before I left for Florida, so they're a little old. I love all of my bargain stores - Century 21, TJ Maxx, Marshalls, Loehmanns - and even the sites (Gilt...and coupon sites for extra discounts). People often tell me they never have any luck at stores like this, which doesn't really surprise me. If you're a skimmer and not a hunter, you might overlook the treasures. It's the same way with thrifting. You can't just walk in and glance over the racks. You have to dedicate a set amount of time and go through every piece. In my opinion, it's worth the search. I got these shoes for $15 and the shirt was even less. The dress was over 70% off. I walked out with two bags full of stuff and spent less than I would even if I just bought the shoes full price. Worth it!
p.s. Speaking of good bargains, if you're as big of a fan of Rebecca Minkoff as I am, now is the time to make a purchase! They're having their Endless Summer Sale with major price reductions (up to 50% off) on bags, apparel and shoes. Also follow their twitter for extra discount codes!! They're tweeting discount codes throughout the whole sale.
p.p.s. This is NOT sponsored by Rebecca Minkoff and they did NOT ask me to post about this. I'm just sharing with you because it's a good sale!

i love the asymetrical top of tht dress. i am a skimmer, esp at century21. too many people, it makes me so nervous. i need to find a time to go in the middle of the day. i am, however, an awesome hunter when it comes to thrift.

I forgot to mention that I didn't go to the one in NYC - I was in Long Island! Wayyyy more laid back there. There's also one in Queens.
I love your fashion style...
Haha, for a minute I thought you had on a leopard print dress! After the last two posts, I wouldn't have been surprised.
Love this outfit! Bargain stores are my second favorite stores because they are more like thrift stores. I like finding only one or two of something- I'm a hunter!
so gorgeous! love the whole look especially the shoes.
Love the posts!! great polkas baby!

That dress is brilliant. I think I need to break up my unending florals, lace and crochet routine with more and more polka dots!

love, rach.

i love your style!
look at my blog Zuckerwolke (:
Can't believe those awesome heels were only $15! I have to convince my boyfriend to drive me to the Long Island or Queens one--the downtown location gives me anxiety, but man, you can really find such great stuff there.
Your dress, hair, shoes, purse, etc is all so darn cute!! LOVE polka dots, matched with red accessories!!
Have a lovely day! xxxx~Kelsey
The dress is bonkers, but I love it, especially with the lace top.

ohhh, lovin' your polka dots! and you high bun is cuuuuute :D
I suspect I am a skimmer not a hunter, I think I need to work on that.
You look lovely, those shoes are fantastic.
I wish we had those kind of crazy yet good quality bargain stores here in Aus! When I was in the U.S. a couple of months ago, I stumbled upon Norstrom Rack and was amazed at how much of a discount you were to get - unreal!!!
You would never EVER find anything like that down here!!

You look so lovely and beautiful! I love this post and your outfit!
You, lady, are a classic beauty! i LOVE your outfit so much.
Alissa B.: I thought the same thing, the first time I heard about it! I was wondering why a realty company would expand into retail. You're not the only one!
Wow, your outfit is super darling, and everything for such a steal of deal. I admire your dedication to looking for such treasures, I need to be more patient :) And adore the RM Boytoy satchel!

Really like the outifit, it's so smart. I agree with you, bargain hunting requires time, but result usually worth it.
I often find awesome steals at TJ Maxx and Marshalls... but yes, it's easier to find cute things at second-hand stores in LA, or hip vintage clothing stores anywhere. I like to hunt!!
You look fab, beautiful as always!
I need to get my ass over to NYC soon....
I agree with EVERYTHING you had to say in this post.... some people are just not born with the patience to hunt and rummage through piles of things... but it is def. worth it.... you never know what you will find!

I sooooo agree with you. You HAVE to DIG. HUNT. I'm big on thrifting and bargain shopping too. It's so worth the effort. You're adorable. xx

i really like the color of that bag :)
I just saw you quoted in a Shine article today! I don't know why this is exciting business but it is, haha.
That's such a cute outfit! I haven't been to a thrift/bargain store in forever... I miss it!
