Fabulously Frugal

A girl’s got to get her designer handbags, below retail.

We know.

American women may spend nearly $5 trillion annually but not without a discerning eye.

Problem is, most of us are too busy for couponing, showrooming and hours of web surfing.

So, we took the liberty of making your life a little easier.

Here are four places to find great deals on everything from pricey skin creams to designer shoes:

  • Birchbox is a luxury beauty sample subscription service that does all of the curating for you. Members receive a monthly package of the latest and greatest beauty products, so you can spend less money experimenting with the wrong moisturizers and put more time into looking your best.
  • For your favorite designer clothing brands, like Cholé and Dolce & Gabbana, Gilt knocks nearly 70 percent off retail prices.
  • Hautelook is your go-to site for shoes and handbags. With daily blowout sales, you are bound to find a deal that fits your budget.
  • Looking for a little rest and relaxation? LivingSocial has incredible deals on dozens of spa treatments from local businesses.

Fabulous isn’t free, but it doesn’t have to be overly expensive either.
