So, I love shows / articles / things where professionals show you how to get a look you want 2 ways - one super expensive, and one more budget conscious.
I'm getting into the High-Low project on HGTV (click here). Designer Sabrina Soto shows people a super-high-end room design, then re-creates it on the homeowners' actual budget.
The other day I was picking up a few things at Target, and saw a display in the handbag section of these beautiful sequin purses that were extremely budget friendly. I knew I'd seen similar bags elsewhere.
I also spied some super cute glitter flats that looked strikingly similar to my Stuart Weitzman flats at a substantially lower cost.
This got me thinking - I know there are similar sparkles that fit into just about anyone's budget...
So, here we are - I've found a bunch of sparkly things that I love and one or two alternatives that won't break the bank.
To the left is a beautiful Michael Kors black sequin bag. Price tag $368.
If that doesn't meet your budget, how about this similar bag from Target on the right? Price tag $24.99.
If black isn't what you're looking for, they both come in gold / blush as well.The Michael Kors version is to the left. Price tag $368
The Target version is to the right. Price tag $24.99
How about a super cute cross-body bag?On the right is a gun-metal gray sequin cross-body from Coach (Occasion sequin flap crossbody). Price tag $198.
