Tightwad Tuesday: Tibi Sequin Blazer on a Budget

Lovers, back in November of 2009 I introduced you to Tibi’s tantalizing Sequin Blazer as part of a Café Fashionista Tightwad Tuesday post; but with the season of sparkle upon us, I felt that it was high time to revisit the spectacular piece – with an even more fabulous look-alike version for the frugalista!

In the left corner, take a peek at Tibi’s Sequin Blazer, sparkling in all of its haute couture glory; in the right corner, allow your pretty peepers to savor the twinkling decadence that is Shock Boutique’s Sequin Blazer in Black – a similar style of which has been seen gracing the form of everyone’s favorite stylist, one Ms. Rachel Zoe.

While the Shock Boutique beauty proffers a more feminine fit than the tempting Tibi; for a mere $54.00, in comparison to the $598.00 needed to take the Tibi home, it is the preemptive piece to add to your wardrobe if you’re looking to add a little shimmer to your style – at a price that no glamorous gal could possibly refuse!

Are you having a tightwad moment darlings, or are you plagued with a craving to splurge?


Fashionably yours!


Thanks to Shopbop and Shock Boutique for the pictures.
