Both brands on were having instagram contests to win product. I couldn’t participate because, well I don’t instagram. I can barely keep up with Tweeting and Facebook… So I won’t add a third semi-abandoned social media outlet.

Splurg vs. Scrimp

When to splurge and when to scrimp… Knowing when to spend or invest on key items is the key to smart and savvy shopper. A rule of thumb for comparing investment pieces versus quality and timelessness.  I debated the splurge or scrimp idea when buying my new “it” bag for spring.

I wanted to get a neon bag for spring and of course on the splurge/invest end was the PS1 – oh to die… On the scrimp end is the Nasty Gal imitation leather bag. While debating which end of the spectrum to choose I used a similar method of pros and cons that one my use to compare credit cards.

PS1

The PS1 although it easily comes out on top on quality and style; but the neon style is uber on trend… Does it make sense to splurge on something that is going to be a fad?  That’s where the Nasty Gal purse makes the most sense.

Although, I am not big on inexpensive items that look it… So I was happy when I found my Cambridge Satchel Company bag… Genuine leather, great style and of course on trend!

As you may know a sprung for it in 2 colors!
