Invitation To Style It Less Project

Dexie Wharton — Tue, 10 Feb 2009 15:53:23 +0000

Here is an open invitation to all of you bargain fashionistas out there. I’ve been wanting to start this Style It Less Project for a while but other things always come up to distract me. I did have a contest last year asking everyone to create Under $100 Looks and a lot of your participated so If igured I’d make it a permanent fixture here at Style It Less.

With the economy’s downturn, now is the perfect time to show everyone how you manage to look great for less. You can read all the details of this Style It Less Project here. I am looking forward to seeing all your fabulous stylish looks for under $100/$150/$200.

Once Style It Less Project settles on it’s comfortable phase, I’ll offer some incentives like prices but for now, the pride and being able to inspire other bargain fashionistas with your own outfits will be the reward. Let’s get it rolling first then I’ll see what I can do later on for price incentives .

Read the infos on how to participate in the Style It Less Project. I’m looking forward to hearing from all of you.

Style It Less Is On TheRecord.com

Dexie Wharton — Tue, 03 Feb 2009 21:50:46 +0000

I was approached by Lauren La Rose from The Canada Press last year about a piece she’s working on regarding how the down economy is influencing the shopping habits of people these days. I said Yes right away. Lauren was very accommodating with my busy schedule during the holidays and I really appreciated that. After answering a few questions, and a month later, TheRecord.com, ([Edit] : The article is also published at Yahoo.ca and Telegraph-Journal). published that interview on the Life section along with the other recessionistas with their thoughts and tips on dealing with the economy.

I of course tackled the bargain fashion side of things . I hope you check it out at: Yahoo.ca, TheRecord.com, and Telegraph-Journal.

Thank you Lauren, The Canadian Press, Yahoo.ca, The Record and Telegraph-Journal for including me and Style It Less.

2008 Round-Up : Under $100 Looks

Dexie Wharton — Tue, 30 Dec 2008 13:54:08 +0000

Here is the Style It Less 2008 round-up of all the Under $100 Looks I’ve put together. Can you believe it’s almost 2009? I’m looking forward to what the new year is in store for us when in comes to trends that we’ll incorporate in our closet.

More Under $100 Looks after the fold…

All these “recessionitas” or “depressionistas” terms that are all of a sudden popping out when it comes to bargain shopping and fashion don’t really mean to us because here at Style It Less, we knew all along that we don’t have to spend too much to look fabulous. While they’re about to board our look for less train, we’re on our way to 2009 for more stylish and fashionable outfits for less. Hooray To Us.

Happy New Year everyone. Thanks for making 2008 fun, entertaining and fabulous. See you in 2009!

2008 Round-Up : My Own Bargain Looks

Dexie Wharton — Sun, 28 Dec 2008 12:16:54 +0000

I wouldn’t be able to dish out bargain looks for everyone if I didn’t do it myself with my own wardrobe, right? It’s definitely a way of life, this Style It Less venture. Here’s a round-up of all my 2008 Bargain Looks for a walk down memory lane.

More 2008 Bargain Looks after the fold….

I’m surprised I only have 25 bargain looks under the 2008 archives. Interestingly enough, that’s just 1 more from the bargain looks of 2007. I guess I’ll just have to increase that number even more for 2009.
