slides: Winter Fashion Finds at a Steal

Saturday, January 28, 2012

 

If you're anything like me you've just started strategizing your winter wardrobe.  After all, this is only the first or second week that temperatures have really dipped below 50 degrees, so who can blame us!

But in the world of fashion that’s not always a good thing. You won't get the same variety of products as you would if you were to shop for fall/winter boots and coats in the beginning of September, when it's like 80 degrees out, but really who wants to do that?

What you can get, though, are some amazing deals on wonderful finds that won't cost you an arm and a leg. The best part is the instant gratification that what your buying you can put on the second you walk out the door. What's the fun in shopping if you can't!

What I've put together for you are some of the best finds around on must-have winter items. These will not only keep you warm and cozy but make you look totally chic and on trend for the season. So click away…

Classic Sweater, 70% off

Anthropologie's striped sweater

Was $98, now $29.95.

I can always find more room for one more striped top, and this one is super soft and warm.  Throw it on with jeans for a casual but put-together look, or layer a bright button-down under it and some black skinny pants for date night.

It would have been nice it Ms. Streilitz had checked out some local stores instead of big business and online shopping- What happened to go local???!!!

I very much appreciate information about the different options of both online and local store shopping in order to make an informed decision on items. I love the items featured (how beautiful is that light jacket and, at such a great price!) and, with a crazy work schedule, I appreciate the ability to choose from online shopping options. I like that GOLOCAL Prov offers a variety of options, will certainly check their articles out more frequently!
