You love a bargain. Your idea of summer fun is a bikini sale at Target. You’re always up for dollar beer night and you’ve been known to make a meal out of the free pizza bread at La Griglia.
Quench your thirst for thrift at Couture Blowout, where fashionista Fatou Fall brings ridiculously expensive retail to deal-hunters like you. She buys up extra inventory at high-end boutiques and collects cast-offs from socialites’ closets (most with the tags still on!). This isn’t resale as you know it – think brand-new designer label jeans for $80, never-been-worn Gucci pumps for $199 and Louboutins with barely-scratched red soles for $449.
You’ll love searching for vintage Chanel suits and bags, amongst younger lines like Alice + Olivia, Rag & Bone and Zac Posen.
Go on, you’ve earned it. Every penny pincher deserves a splurge sometimes.
