Splurge vs. Save: What's it going to be?

I am sure that every fashionista faces the same problem each season - how can I buy all the things I like and still not go over budget? Well, there is an answer to that.

Thanks to emerging high-street brands such as Zara, Mango and H&M that have spread all around the world, you can now have the season's IT pieces without shelling too much of your own payment. 

Coincidentally, Credit Card Insider also thinks the same way and encourages fashion bloggers around the world to share their "bargain" stories and feature an item they've recently bought for a low price, as opposed to the original designer piece. The latest item I've snagged is this gorgeous T-shirt from Zara that is inspired by Céline's S/S '14 collection.

You can also have the T-shirt for only 22€ while the Céline will set you back over 1.000€ per item.
