Over the years I have noticed that prices at some retailers formally known for reasonable clothing have increased. Below are some comparisons that really surprised me.
Which do you think costs more?
Express Striped Pencil Skirt
Ann Taylor Loft Pencil Skirt

What about these?
Ann Taylor Loft Pencil Skirt

Answer: Express Striped Pencil Skirt: $69.50, Ann Taylor Loft Pencil Skirt: $69. And you know the quality is not the same!
Answer:
Banana Republic Woven Leather Triangle Tote - $398
Charles David Chapman Hobo - $346
Michael Kors Brookville Hobo - $268
I would have thought BR would have been less than both Michael and Charles.
