Bella Home
On a recent trip down into the OC, I got a bit lost. So I pulled into a small corner shopping mall so I could double check the directions off my phone. When I looked up, I noticed a sweet little shop called Bella Home Thrift Shop. It was so cute, I just had to pop in to see what it was about.

Dahdoul Textiles
I headed over to the Dahdoul Textiles outlet in Commerce this week. I had visited Dahdoul Textiles about 6 years ago and though everything was well below retail, I wasn’t impressed enough with the quality to write about it. But I thought I should take another look.
Well, I wasn’t really wow’d this time either, but I did find a few good buys. Dahdoul sells lower end merchandise priced really cheap… about 10%-30% below what it should go for with a few items priced at a solid 50%-60% savings

Steven Alan Outpost
Sometimes it is a curse to have good taste. Many of the things in life that are well designed and well crafted, tend to be more expensive.

So I went looking for deals on designer denim. I found That Jean Shop in Los Angeles
The Store
Good things do come out of a recession. One of these good things is that now you don’t have to wait to the last Friday of every month to shop at designer showrooms. The Store has now opened.

But there are gems of good designer pieces here and there is a multitude of better designer shoes in the 5000 square foot women’s shoe section
