What with the credit crunch being a right royal pain-in-the-ass it makes sense to scour the grid for *quality* freebies. I stress the word QUALITY there, because I’m afraid there is some total cobblers to be had, and you really do have to sift through the crud to find the diamond in the rough. But when you do, it’s sure to be the sparkliest diamond you ever did see…and here’s a prime example. I’ve just discovered a store called ‘Runo Runo’ and it’s rather special. For a start the jumper I’m wearing here is a FREEBIE. Yes, you read correctly, this quality number is a freebie from SLX. There is nothing I dislike about this- the texture, the fit and the styling are just bloody wonderful and the fact that it costs NOTHING makes it all the more special. This is an essential for your Autumn/Winter wardrobe readers, but not just that- this is haute couture styling, make no mistake about that! I dunno if it’s intentional but there’s a real Issey Miyake feel to the pieces featured, and here’s the best bit- on SLX you can get four freebie pieces from this designer, and the prices for the rest of the collection are..wait for it..L$50. Now, when quality is *this* good, I would actually pay more, but Runo Runo proves that you don’t have to. It kinda makes me wonder why we’re happy to pay the prices that we do for clothing on the grid when some designers are more than happy to flog their wares for pennies..Anyways, go and get the freebies that Runo Runo has to offer…they’re *very* special, and check out the main store too. I’ll be blogging that at a later date, make no mistake!
