$378 is a big price to pay for a little black dress. Even when it's a luscious LaRok design draped in layer upon layer of glorious fringe. For a swinging good time at a fraction of the price, try Forever 21's flapper fringe tunic. Wear it with skinny jeans for a more casual look, or colored tights and ankle boots for a night out.

The Limited finally launched an online store sometime in mid-September, but apparently I didn't get the memo. Oh well, we've waited this long for the shopping mall staple to go cyber, so what's a few more weeks?

Click on over to their site and you'll find the Limited's usual strengths: Affordable office attire, including modern-classic suits, skirts and tops. Keep browsing for trendier accessories, outerwear, and dresses that are great for updating your wardrobe this season, but won't be "out" the next.
