No one wants to, nor should they, pay full price for designer bags. Enter Guiltless Purse – a GREAT sample sale site where you can shop fabulous brands like Treesje, Cole Haan, Botkier, Alexander McQueen, Lauren Merkin, and more for a fraction of the retail price. On a recent perusing session at the site, I found Furla handbags for $60, and Abaco bags for $242, which means it won’t be difficult to click on through and add a new designer bag to my collection! Guiltless Purse also offers jewelry and accessories, so check it from time to time for new brands, products, and amazing deals !

20×200: Original Art That I Can Actually Afford (Really!)
Good art is hard to come by — affordable art, as in $20 — almost impossible. When I met Jen Bekman of 20×200 a year ago, I was floored by the concept of her site –great, original works of art, for $20! The prices vary, depending on the artist and size, but you can get a 8X10 piece of original artwork for $20. I gave a few pieces to friends via gift certificates this holiday season so that they could pick out their own art, own a few pieces myself, and just love the concept! Here are some pieces you can get, with the 8X10s at $20 — check out the site, and keep it in your mind for a unique gift giving idea!
