So listen up local New Yorkers, according to Style.com, Earnest Sewn just opened a Recession-Proof store at 821 Washington St. in dowtown NYC chock full of "downtown chic finds..."

It is nice to see designers keeping us budget fashionistas in mind. 'Tis the season for giving.

And word is, you can find designer items for less than 50 bucs. If that isn't recession-proof, I don't know what is!

So, head downtown and don't forget to brag to us about your fab designer finds for the holiday/winter season.

Run!
