I grew up shopping in thrift stores and that thrill of digging through racks of clothing to find that one great item has never gotten old. While I still love thrifting, I also love hitting up stores like Marshall’s where you can get really cute brand new items at low prices. They have a relatively new section called The Cube which is stocked with lots of trendy and cute items.

I recently decided to go look for some Summer Fashions at Marshall’s The Cube and was quite surprised with what I found. The location near me had a lot of higher end brands in stock. Juicy Couture, J Brand Jeans, Paige Premium Denim, Paper Denim & Cloth, Roxy, House of Dereon, American Eagle, and Hollister Co. where all over the racks. In the footwear department, there were a lot of cute styles from Jessica Simpson, Chinese Laundry, Coach, and Steve Madden.

I ended up walking out with a pair of rinse wash jeans from Hollister Co. because, really, can you ever have enough dark wash denim? I have pairs in every cut and I think it’s always an important closet staple. The pair that I got retail in Hollister for $49.50, but I paid only $21.00 at Marshall’s. You really can’t beat that price. Even the higher end items were at affordable prices. The J Brand, Paper Denim & Cloth and Paige Premium Denim jeans were all under $100. The Juicy Couture velour zip ups were around $50. My biggest complaint about the location that I visited was their lack of size selection. There were less than 10 pairs of pants, no skirts, no shorts, and no dresses available in a size 0 or 2. I had my eye on these really cute Jessica Simpson sandals but, sadly, they didn’t have my size in stock. I’m just really glad that I found a great pair of jeans! I was very very tempted by a Lucky Brand Jeans handbag, but it was out of my price range. So, I also walked out with a bottle of BigSexyHair hairspray. Who can say no to any product from that line? Especially when it’s priced at $9.99.

Check out the The Cube website for locations near you. You never know what you’re going to find. Also, check out The Cube on Facebook for videos of Kelly from “OMG Shoes” featuring Marshall’s The Cube, pictures, and more.

Have you gone shopping at Marshall’s or their The Cube section before? What items did you pick up?
