In Honor of Black Friday

In honor of Black Friday, I bring you some items worthy of the Recessionista in all of us!

First, Michelle O. budget style, courtesy of the Huffington Post (thanks Kate!):


I would argue she is even more style savvy than Jackie O., because according to a Vogue article I read last year, Jackie was ALL Valentino's creation. Can't find the original article, but here's a Wiki link that begins to prove my point.


Now, three NY Times articles on a 5AM stampede earlier this morning, death of a Wal-Mart worker (I hate Wal-Mart but this is sad), and of course, the obvious article about Americans losing their spending appetite. I'm out in rural Wyoming where the closest mall is no less than 5 hours away, but the urbanite has to stay connected somehow, be it Nytimes online on a sketchy Wi-fi system....

So before my connection to the outside world dies on me, and in honor of the fact that I have not seen High School Musical 3 yet (should I?), I bring you this.
