Barneys Girl Shops the UO Sale

So I thought I'd do a bit of virtual shopping at my old favourite Urbran Outfitters. After having been disappointed many times before when the items I saw in real life did not compare to what I saw online, I've learnt to have a more discerning eye when picking things out on the Urban Outfitters site now. Here are a few 'safe' items that I feel will be good buys from their site that is on sale at the moment.

First up, this Free People Morning Glory dress for $89.99. I love the simple design and the refreshing color. Its perfect for a casual summer day dress. Since its from Free People, expect the material to be delicate and flimsy.

I expect this is one of those things that would disappoint if one see's it in real life. The material is probably very thin and coarse, with not much of a shape to it. But for $24.99 I thought it might be a fun fashion buy. I like the stripes, the color isn't too cheap and the scoop with the buttons is interesting.
Mixed links chain for $14.95. I have a weakness for these kind of designs lately and it can't really go that wrong. . . .
Another fun buy this season are these brown Miss Sixty's platforms for $89.99 which are very SS06 Chloe/YSL/Miu Miu. A great match for any of your summer outfits!

Finally, for something more comfortable, casual and classical, there are these studded flip flops for $24.99.

They are also doing a limited time promotion right now, where an additional 25% will be taken off sale items. The promotion ends Sunday (July 2nd), so hurry up and check it out!

Meh, I hate UO... but to each their own... The Pink/Black top w/ the buttons is all over Forever 21... if you don't have it where you are, you can shop online.

Thanks for the tip, I love the Free People dress! FYI for those who are planning to get the dolce vita sandals... they're typically made well but that sewn in brand tag under the heel can get irritating to walk on!

I got that chain for $1.99 in the store.... Actually all of the sale jewelry in store was going for $1.99.

Sometimes the sale prices in-store and online are drastically different...

about the stripped shirt w/the buttons on the side of each strap...i bought the exact same shirt (different color) at Urban Outfitters and at first it was actually very cute...but once you wash it, the "crinkly" material turns "flat!" and it takes away from the look of the blouse...not a very good buy. I was very dissapointed :(

UO has terrible quality items. How about buying from true artisans?

Finding Style Inexpensively
With movies like “Sex and the City” coming out this summer, you know that everyone is going to

be looking for the hottest designs there are to be found. Unfortunately the words “hot designs”

go hand-in-hand with the words “extremely expensive”, and it is often not possible for many of

us to be able to afford some of the best designs on the market. This is where exact replica

designer handbags come in. These beautiful bags are exactly like the originals, only without the

extreme price tags.
Take the Cartier Marcello de Cartier. This beautiful and stylish bag has been seen on dozens of

celebrities and will likely be seen on the arms of dozens more before the summer is over. It is

made of a dark blue cowhide leather and features two handles for easy carrying and the signature

Cartier logo. It also has a soft textile lining and has all of the appropriate Cartier markings so

that everyone will know that you have a Cartier on your arm. With exact replica designer handbags,

you can afford to own the hottest styles in fashion while still being able to afford paying your

monthly bills.http://www.ereplicasupplier.com/
