Frugal Snob: BCBG VS Herve Leger

I have the Herve Leger High Waist Stretch Skirt but I got it on sale last season for 50% off. If you cannot spend $650 on a skirt, the BCBG Knit Skirt is almost the exact same thing for $138. It is the same designer so you get the same look. The difference is in the fabric, the Herve Leger is much thicker and tighter so you get a better "hold", as in your tummy. I love this skirt for bloated days when I'm feeling fat, I pull it up so it completely smooths out any unwanted rolls. Absolutely perfect with everything, I even dress it down with a cute casual top. At Saks Fifth Avenue for $138.
