So, I am in college, as you may have known... that means ya gotta save money when you can. I personally still like to be fabulous at the same time! Now you get to learn just a few of my secrets for getting the best designer dupes possible.
1. Louis Bags
Good ones are hard to come by most of the time! You need to brush up your knowledge by watching authenticity videos and trying to find the dupe that falls more on the authentic end of the LV spectrum. I personally have a few that I got from my old job (goodwill, lets not talk about that experience ever again) they are top of the line dupes, and I just so happen to have 2 for sale on
Poshmark, comment you read this on my blog for 10% off if you want anything from my closet. But anyway, keep your eyes out in thrift stores and on poshmark, they always have a hidden gem somewhere!
2. Cartier Love Bracelets
I got mine from the app called Wish, you basically order it from china and have to wait a month for it to come in. Its super cheap too! To find things on the app, you have to search for unusual things. To get these bracelets search "screw bracelet" or "love bracelet". They are like $2 each and its pretty cool
3. Chanel, Hermes, Prada Accessories
Get the app Aliexpress, it is not a scam! Again, a China based company app thing but they have some fun stuff. Got my Chanel earrings ( type " cc designer earrings" to find), Hermes belt (type "hbrand belt", and my Prada inspired sunglasses (type "designer swirl glasses") all from this app. I have also ordered many other things but they were just for fun, not any fashionable stuff. The reason you have to type in weird things on these apps is because they regulate the designer names so if something says Chanel or Louis Vuitton, it will be blocked so you cant see it. I would post the links to the things I got but, once they sell out, they no longer exist on the link.
4. Keep your Research Up
Most "hipster" stores will copy the styles of high fashion brands. For example, forever 21 has tons of fashion dupes, just gotta keep your eye out on the designers website versus the affordable stores.
5. Make it yourself
Just see my

DIY fringe jeans to get your inspiration. Pinterest is also a great way to find high fashion designer outfits and copy them for a reasonable price.
Hope this helps!!
