Let’s face it. We all want to look like a star-or at least someone who has the time and money to spend hours on their look of the day, for whatever reason. (To me it seems as though that just says you don’t have a life. But whatever.) At any rate, looking your best does not mean going for the most pricey. For the vast majority of us, Barney’s and Neiman Marcus are out of the picture. We have to stick to Macy’s.
Such being the case, I would like to present everyone with some cheaper alternatives that look just as great.
Let’s take, for example, the Burberry trench coat. I am a HUGE fan of the classic trench coat. (I know, I know. Can you say Casablanca?) And Burberry definitely has the look down pat. Classy, chic, and for a trench coat, pretty streamlined.
The Burberry trench coat, however, goes for $1,255. It’s a bit pricey for the typical shopper, me included.
You can find an equally sleek look for your trench coat, however, at Nordstrom, for $158.
The picture may be moderately less impressive, but hey, don’t take my word for it. Try it on yourself and see the difference.
