URBAN Legend?

Who (reading this blog), does not enjoy a good fashion read from time to time? You guessed it - we all do. The good news is there is a ton of quality fashion-related material out there, but the bad news is I have a feeling some of you might be getting sucked into paying inflated prices as a result of purchasing at convenient '1-stop-shop' fashion retailers such as our good friend, Urban Outfitters.

Don't get me wrong, I hit up (the sale section exclusively) at Urban Oufitters like it's nobody's business. I just want to make it known that the same titles you see in the much-loved Housewares section at Urban, will also be found at your local bookstore - but at much more attractive prices.

For example, I picked up "I Love Your Style" By Amanda Brooks for a whopping $7.99 (and yes, it was NEEEEEW). Last week, I saw the same book for $29.99 at Urban and thought I should throw down a post to alert all my Stylista Fashionista bitties out there that there is another, budget-friendly way to hit up this book.

Below are some great titles I have come across at both Urban Outfitters and at smaller, one off bookstores... The choice is yours.

I'm just sayin', thats all.
