We strive to show you how to look amazing without breaking the bank by sharing our favorite fly finds with you. What can we say, spreading affordable glamour is our thing! ;) Sometimes we like to dream, and when we do, we share what we would purchase with our money if we were Anna Dello Russo. We also love to show you who is wearing what, and only highlight those who look ridiculously fly and whose closet we'd love to sleep in... I mean raid! Oh, and the latest news in fashion is kind of our thing, too!
Our philosophy is simple:
"Fashion is expensive. Style is not. Some of the most stylish girls I know are certainly not the wealthiest." — Nina GarciaWe couldn't have said it better ourselves, Nina!
Just think: Picasso's supplies didn't cost much — it's what he did with what he had...
Erika "Mercedes" Sanchez is the founder and editor of poorandfly.com. She has had a lifelong fascination with clothes and has always been passionate about helping people look and feel their absolute best. Erika firmly believes that style transcends economics: "At the end of the day, it's all about being resourceful and how you put yourself together. Whether you are rich or not has nothing to do with how you can look."
Erika will be the first to tell you that her shoes are Fendi, her bag is from Zara, and her dress is from Salvation Army. And yes, she WILL wear them together! In her eyes, that is the epitome of poor & fly. She lives for it!
