Vintage vs Barneys & The Row ...

Cashmere flannel Burford Shirt, made in USA ... $790 at Barneys.



Lightweight cotton blend plaid vintage shirt, made in USA ... $18.00 at the shop.

Similar looks... not so similar prices. (one for summer, one for winter...?)

  1. OK this might be the best Save vs. Splurge I've ever seen. You'd have to be a fool not to go for the adorable vintage top! LOVE IT.

  3. Fabulous post! These two shirts looks identical!! While cashmere is nice, I can't imagine spending $800 on a plaid shirt!

  4. Um, The Row does cute stuff but that's ridiculous! Heck, why not get the vintage AND a plaid shirt from the olsens' mid range line elizabeth and james, and you'll STILL have money left over for a spa day :)

  5. I'm loving the Hitchcock "Birds" inspired ad! ...but I kinda choked when I saw the price. I think your version is actually cuter!
