Has anyone else ever abandoned a perfectly good cart full of designer goodies because you found it’s dupe for a much cheaper price? Guilty a million times! Everyone loves a bargain and everyone wants to look chic but I simply can’t justify paying more for apparel, handbags, shoes, and accessories knowing I can get a look-a-like for less!
Granted, #realtalk there are some situations where quality does count and the more expensive version is worth it. It’s made (sort of) better, it’s a one-time purchase that last will last forever, it’s your all time favorite piece that you wear every. single. day yadda yadda yadda…. But more often than not, the designer dupes are a million times more worthwhile. They look the same, they most likely wear the same, and to be honest, most people can never tell the difference!
