Behind the brown bag is a level of customer service, refinement, and design that every fashionista admittedly craves. Whether we make enough to drop the big bucks or stop in every once in a while for a sale accessory we just can’t seem to live without, Bloomingdale’s has always welcomed us with open arms.

In the eyes of a budget fashionista it doesn’t get much better than luxury outlet. Saks Fifth Avenue’s version, Off Fifth, houses all of the same designer amenities (men’s, women’s, kid’s, accessories, jewelry, shoes, bags…the list goes on) you know and swooned over at the regular store, cut to a fraction of the price. Pristine sales floors, attentive staff and a surprisingly consistent offering of sales and coupons should move this outlet to the top of your list.
