Deciding whether to splurge or steal comes down to a few factors for me:
1) Quality. Is the splurge worth the difference in quality?
2) Trendiness. Is the item a super trendy piece that I probably won't wear for years to come?
3) Versatility. Does it go with many things I own and can I wear it during multiple seasons?
This beautiful orange top is going to be a Steal. Both tops are a Polyester/Elastane blend, almost the exact same material. ALWAYS look at materials and where something is made. You'd be surprised how many designer items are mass-produced in China and contain the same fabrics as their less expensive versions. Both of these tops are also pretty trendy - peplum is very in right now, but may not be in a year or two. Especially the way these two are cut - they are very non-traditional peplum tops. And as far as versatility goes, I have the ASOS version in black, and it is a thick material that is not really appropriate for summer unless you are in a frigidly air-conditioned room. The color is a great all-season color, but the long fitted sleeves and thick material take it out of the running for year-round wear. Overall, I say this is a must-Steal!
