Have you seen any websites selling genuine Gucci handbags at great prices? —Jo

The only place I've seen that sells genuine Gucci handbags at a discount is Bluefly.com. Every now and then, I'll see Gucci come up at sample sale websites such as ideeli.com or RueLaLa.com. Sign up for their e-mail sale alerts, wait, then pounce the SECOND your sale starts. Now I'll turn it over to my readers—does anyone know of another REPUTABLE, mainstream store that sells genuine Gucci handbags for less? Share the secret!

Drawing upon the intricacies of Indian art, jewelry designer Amrita Singh creates covetable works of wearable art, like these Turquoise Stone Earrings. ($92 at Pink Mascara)


Need to give this bold look a test run before you invest? Try Forever 21's turquoise chandelier earrings instead for the guilt-free price of just $6.80.

This Re Collection Triangle Bra is made from recycled garments and comes in either black/cobalt or black/fuchsia for just $40 at Shopbop.com. It's a yummy way to add a pop of color to your day (even if you're the only one who knows).


Another option: Forever 21's Rebel Mesh bra features the same triangular shape and contrast trim styling, and is also available in black/blue or black/pink for just $6.80 at Forever21.com.

These Sigerson Morrison shield gladiators feature an ornate ankle cuff with a wrap around belt and side buckle closure, and originally sold for $749 at Zappos Couture.


Get the look for less with the Naughty Monkey "One Way Ticket" gladiator sandal, available in either chocolate, black, gold, or pewter for $70.95 at Zappos. Naughty Monkey is such a catchy name, don't cha think?


For the budget-friendliest option, which is looking really really good at this price, check out Wet Seal's Stud Gladiator Shoe, just $19.50. Loves it.

Ok, so this is the LAST Charlotte Russe post, I promise, just had to share a couple pics of the stylish guests, the VIPs and the food (why must everything at NYC parties be miniature? Soon they'll be serving individual grains of rice and these model types still won't touch it, lol).
