Trust me it kills my pockets but I have an Aunt that doesn't beleive in paying full price for anything. I only shop for work gear with her. Plus she ends up chargin gmost of my clothes too. Thank you Auntie!!! (I'm sooo spoiled)However we don't shop for shoes together. Homegirl will throw on some payless shoes in a NY minute. Can you say tacky???? But I still luv her!!!
Anyway you'd be surprised at what you might find in the clearance rack. It might not be for this season but the season is sure to come.
Honestly I order alot from catalogues! I use their credit cards and pay the bills over time. Plus by wearing such classic and traditional items, they never go out of style and that's a good thing.
My wardrobe is the main reason I can't furnish my apartment the way I'd like. I keep buying a little at a time. I'll get there one day.

Oh and wife beaters are little sleevless white undershirts that men wear (Ja-rule). I think that term comes from the image of the traditionally abusive husband always being arrested wearing one. I think the term helps to glorify spousal abuse. go figure!
