Nordstrom Rack: shop much much cheaper, still wear nice stuff. The shoe section is the best part. I have found so many great pairs of shoes here, for so much less than you'd pay even at other outlets or discount places. If you have the Nordstrom credit card, the rewards are certificates you can use online OR more importantly, at the Rack, which means you can get great stuff even cheaper or free. I've bought a few things that didn't work out from here, like a leather jacket that looked awesome but the lining is so insanely uncomfortable I ended up never wearing it, but I only spent $25 on it to start, so it's not the disappointment a $300 jacket would be. A couple of sundresses last year on the other hand turned out to be staples of my summer wardrobe and cost me less than $30 combined. I bought a gorgeous corderoy jacket that was missing a button and had been marked down even further. Sewing a button on is easy, folks! The salesgirl even commented on what a great deal the coat was.
