EDF Fashion (and Fashion Deals) Thread
We had a pretty good fashion thread in here last year, and hopefully we can get another good one going. In the spirit of the current economic climate, I'll start off by passing along a coupon good for 30% off at Banana Republic, Gap and Old Navy from Nov. 13-16:

This particular one cannot be used online anymore, but can be printed out and used at any B&M store (I did so myself today at BR).
I have decided to make a more concerted effort to not pay full price for clothes given that there is such a high markup on them and there are so many sales. Brooks Brothers usually has a very good sale after Christmas, and I intend to buy my work clothes for the year then.
If anyone has any advice on finding good deals on high-end dress shoes (e.g. Allen Edmonds or better) I'd appreciate it, but it appears that good shoes are almost never on sale. And while we are on the topic of shoes, what do you guys like for wearing in situations that are a mix between casual and dressy? For example, if you were going to go to a nice lounge and wear jeans and a nice shirt with a jacket?

Aspettare i saldi è sicuramente la mossa intelligente. I prezzi al dettaglio per la maggior parte dei marchi dei centri commerciali sono solo un peccato, una volta che ci si rende conto di quanto spesso facciano sconti. I saldi post-festivi sono di solito il momento migliore per fare scorta di articoli da lavoro. Per le scarpe di fascia alta, i secondi di fabbrica e gli outlet sono spesso le uniche vere occasioni. Per un look casual ma raffinato, mi piacciono le sneakers in pelle, i mocassini in camoscio o le chukka pulite. Entra su Caspero Casino e sfrutta le offerte disponibili. Stanno bene con jeans e giacca senza sembrare troppo formali. È tutta una questione di versatilità e qualità, non di quantità.
