Crisis. It’s the first of the month, 2 weeks from Joburg’s biggest fashion event. Looking into your wardrobe leaves you dismayed. Janu-worry’s financial woes have barely ended and you’ve just spent a small fortune on your car repairs. Needless to say, you can no longer add that David Tlale original to your collection. Every self-respecting fashionista will understand this crisis and appreciate the need for an Operation Fashion Rescue.

I’ve discovered some little gems that are not going to break your budget, like, yes; you said it, the Mr Price website. This is my new best friend, and I know... I also hate walking into the shop and sifting through mountains of clothing (and people) to find what I want. But the website! It does all the work for you. Flip through the Trend Flash and you’ll find the hottest international fashion references, translated into affordable Mr Price items.

Then the spendthrift in me found the Luella blog site with shoes that literally put me on a high! All you need to know about what to be seen in among Jozi’s fashion crowds – this is not where I should be seen at this time of the month, but hey, I can pay it off! It will be my ‘investment purchase’. Well the shopping’s not going to do itself, so here are more fashion sites you’re going to love playing on: Polyvore iFashion Stylescoop
