Recessionista (n.): A Recessionista is one who, despite an economic downturn, evokes the creative power and continues to look like a million bucks while only spending a few. She can endure burden and misfortune that accompany a poor economy. Refusing to go without, she searches the sales, frequents the discount stores and always leaves with her head held high and a smile across her face, knowing she found some incredible deals.
If recessionista describes you or someone you know, you must learn more about how you can throw one of their parties or shop at their online store. They have brand name handbags, accessories, clothing, shoes and more at largely discounted prices. And when you throw a party, in your home or online, you get hosting benefits. Not only that, Recessionista is constantly doing giveaways and weekly specials on their products.

Recessionista is giving away prizes to TWO winners. The first winner will receive a scarf and a long sleeve burnt out tee. The second winner will receive a $50 gift certificate to their online store. Both winners will be able to select styles and colors from what is available on their site at the time. This giveaway is only for those residing in the U.S. or Canada.

I follow Simply Modern Mom on twitter (@MeredithRae)
i check ebay for designer items! even your clothes//accessories they are not “new” one can still stay fashionable!!
I shop the sales
I love the Guess Paparazzi Handbag
My current plan is to loose weight so I can fit into my super cute skinny clothes. Then I feel like I have a new wardrobe again without buying anything!
i usually find something i love and then scour the internet for coupons for that store or online codes! i also used ebates.com whenever i shop, so i earn cash back on stuff i was already planning on buying!
AHHH! i love this from their shop! http://therecessionistashop.com/item_130/Jessica-Simpson-Turquoise-Crochet-Handbag.htm
I shop for cute clothes on ebay as well as shopping in stores when they have extra incentives, such as Kohl’s Cash, Gymbucks at Gymboree, etc.
I subscribe via RSS.
I shop the sales and the “big box” stores. Target has some really cute styles these days & I love Forever 21.
I am a subscriber!
I love the antique ring in your store!
I don’t know that I’d qualify as “fashionable” – I’m more simple and classic… but sometimes that’s helpful! I have a closet full of great staples and can dress them up with trendy scarves and cheaper accessories instead of buying a whole new outfit on a budget.
I also subscribe via Google Reader.
I ended up over on Recessionista Shoes and found these Kenneth Cole boots. Love them!

I like the dove necklace.
I remake or sew as much as I can to stay “cool” without busting the budget.
I’m an RSS reader too
I like the brown knit cap a lot!
I stay fashionable by mixing older trends with no ones! Or adding just one new trend to my look… like the fab. headband you are showing.. I WANT!
