I hadn't been to Editor's Closet in a while, but today's sales are worth sharing. They're got Alexis Hudson handbags, which are beautiful investment bags that were introduced to me by a reader a while back. I don't own one, but they're tempting! A black leather tote, for example, normally $750 is now $260. Also on sale is jewelry by CC Skye, great architectural pieces like a wood and gold bangle for $22, down from $60. There are two Skagen watches I'm loving, marked down from $150 to $45, with an awesome retro vibe. I can't decide between the gold or silver. Drop me a comment if you'd like an invite to check out the sale.

When you land on Mimi Boutique's homepage (www.mimiboutique.com), you're greeted with the following quote: "The only rule is don't be boring and dress cute. Life is too short to blend in." Wise words, and as long as you can get past the source (Paris Hilton), it's a great mantra for a boutique that features cute and trendy handbags, accessories, jewelry and beauty products at affordable prices. So let's get shopping, shall we? Here are just a few of the many items at Mimi Boutique that got me drooling. (Click any image for details)

Emmie Satchel in White, $46. Inspired by the Chloé Paraty leather shoulder bag, Mimi's designer-inspired version is precisely $1,849 less than the original. Summer style's in the bag.

Gold Filigree Ring with Coral Rose, $18.75. I'm loving the color coral for Spring, and this ring is the perfect way to wear it.

What do today's celebrity style icons have in common (besides oodles of disposable income and lots of designer freebies)? They all have fab accessories! The right scarf, some shades and a kickass handbag can transform a boring t-shirt and jeans into a chic ensemble, which is why we're proud to introduce you to Bare Accessories (www.shopbareaccessories.com), another awesome boutique that's making its debut appearance on The Budget Babe.

Bare Accessories is a trendy boutique featuring affordable sunglasses, scarves, headbands, jewelry, and handbags as well as some clothing basics from American Apparel, which ships worldwide (free to the U.S!). The owner also writes a blog, My Bare Style, which features fashion trends, outfits ideas and sales tips. Here are some sweet finds from Bare Accessories—be sure to browse the site for more goodies.

Here's another great store that I've never featured on my blog, even though I've been a big fan of theirs for years! It's called Threadless.com, and it's a fun T-shirt store for ladies, gents and children where users can submit their own designs and photos, as well as rate other artists' designs. I've picked up some unique tees for friends as gifts over the years cuz the quality is great and the styles are HIGH-larious.

What's more, Threadless.com just kicked off their huge spring sale today, with dozens of tees from $5 'til March 23rd! To make things even better, Threadless is giving one Budget Babe reader a $25 gift certificate that you can use towards any purchase on their site. To enter, just visit www.threadless.com, then tell us which tee is your favorite in the comments. Good luck!
