Save: Rebecca Minkoff Becky Silk Jacket, Saks Fifth Avenue / Splurge: BB Dakota Carrie Crepe Blazer, ShopBop / Steal: Dynamite Draped Blazer, Dynamite /
Rebecca Minkoff is one of my favourite designers but is extremely out of my price range. When I saw the Becky Silk Jacket on Julia of Gal Meets Glam, see here, I loved it and have been searching for a similar less expensive version. I'll save the idea of owning anything Rebecca Minkoff until I can afford it. I found the BB Dakota Carrie Crepe blazer, which is very similar but has some minor alterations. This blazer is shorter, but not quite a crop, doesn't have the detail on the front and isn't the same blue but it's close enough for me! I would absolutely splurge on this blazer. The steal I found is from Dynamite, and even though the colour is much softer it is very similar to the two other blazers. It's not silk, but it's a very light weight fabric that moves easily and is wildly comfortable (I have two other Dynamite blazers, one is worn here). Not to mention the prices of all three are totally different- $400.00, $98.00 and $22.00 (on sale) respectively for save, splurge and steal.
I love "window shopping" for designer duds but I know I can't afford them at this point of my life. My goal is to find clothing that will last, is good quality and has similarities to desinger/high end brands.
