The Better Splurge or Save

Recently I've been looking to purchase a floor lamp for my dorm room. Lighting makes all the difference in creating a great atmosphere, but I have no plans on running through my entire month's allowance. I was eyeing this Z-Gallerie floor lamp, but found this similar one from Target for a great price. I didn't believe the Target one could be any where near the same quality as the one in Z-Gallerie, and I went to Target to see for myself. I was pleasantly surprised that Target's version looked well made and had a nice sturdy weight to it. Depending how crafty I'm feeling, I might even spray paint my SAVE version, which I would never do the SPLURGE lamp just because I'd be too scared to ruin it.
What do you all think?

Splurge or Save?

June 01, 2010

These Miu Miu wood and suede heels have been everywhere lately. And while I'm in love with them what is a girl to do when she sees the hefty price tag? Splurge or go for less expensive look alike?
