Talbots, Macy’s and Lord and Taylor are expensive and that’s why I wait for the sales. And I signed up for e-mail coupons.
I don’t buy a lot of stuff, I don’t have the money for any extras but whatever I do buy I make sure it’s good quality with a nice fit and I find that to be only in the more expensive stores.
Here’s how you find cheaper stuff at talbots online.Go to talbots.com and click on sale. They keep on getting new stuff in every week or two. Checking under outlets is mostly a waste of time and is not cheaper. Also sign up for e-mails to be informed when their sales stuff goes on sale for further reductions.
Now you won’t find what your looking for every time you search, but if you enjoy browsing on line, then eventually you’ll find nice things. If you don’t enjoy browsing then it’s not for you.
You should not have a problem with their 25″ long skirts when you hem them down an inch if the skirt is not a straight skirt.
Lord&Talor and Macy’s also have fabulous sales. I just brought a $215 spring jacket for $64 at Lord and Taylor.
You can barely find tznius clothing in most non-Jewish stores after their spring collection sells out and they only have their summer collection in. With their spring, fall and winter collections you shouldn’t have a problem if you look in the right places.
The bottom line if you want good quality is – you need to wait for the sales, enjoy looking for bargains and only buy with coupons.
