While I am always one for affordable fashion, sometimes you get what your pay for (if you've ever bought at $4 shirt from Forever21, you know what I mean). But this week, British fashion chain Topshop opened its doors on this side of the pond, and the response couldn't have been more welcome. Famous for their trendy and higher quality designs, Topshop offers lines from high-end designers at low-budget prices. Of course, you probably heard of the famed fashion outlet and if you live outside of New York, the news may seem irrelevant to your shopping agenda. But, for a limited time only, you can actually purchase clothing from the store's website and get free shipping (yes, free, no minimum purchase required).
So, unless you're on your way to Barney's now, this is good news. When else could you purchase a Preen studded skirt or a Jonathan Saunders one shoulder dress? Even if you can't get to Broadway and Broome, then definitely check out them out online. While some store openings are all hype, this is actually hype you can believe in.
