Uptown Cheapskate on Battlefield is a gold mine for cheap, designer clothes. When I was shopping, I found brands such as Charlotte Russe, Francesca’s, American Eagle, Gap, Banana Republic, etc.
I know I usually do these posts in a different style where I say what each store specializes in, however, they really only specialize in clothes and accessories. I also didn’t expect for this store to be on my list, but it’s here because I found some really great deals clothes.
So, I bought this adorable Lilly Pulitzer dress from Uptown Cheapskate. In case you didn’t know, Lilly Pulitzer is this really expensive designer brand that sells clothes and accessories for girls. o buy something that’s Lilly Pulitzer, you either need to sell half of your soul or have saved money for a while to make a daunting purchase.
Lilly Pulitzer dresses range from $88-$298 per dress. I got mine for $18. It felt like magic. I felt like I was gliding around the store with happiness.
My second purchase was a Kate Spade chambray jean shirt with jeweled embellishments on the collar. Again, very expensive. But I got my shirt for only $16! The buttons are kind of different so I plan on wearing a thin V-neck sweater to go over it.
So when you’re discouraged from prices at Battlefield Mall, go to Uptown Cheapskate and check out what’s there. You can find a lot of great clothes!
