When it comes to fashion, there’s a common misconception that the pricer an item is, the better value it yields to the consumer. As seen by Balenciaga’s platform crocs and Tiffany’s $9,000 ball of yarn, this is far from the truth; in fact, there is a plethora of quality finds and designer picks that won’t break the bank at store...
