Dedicated to providing affordable and fashionable clothing, DownEast Basics carries an amazing collection of tops, skirts, and outwear, the majority of which are priced under $30. They also have special lines for little girls, men, plus sizes, and expectant moms. Their maternity tees and tanks are currently on sale for as low as $5.00 a piece!
Besides their vast variety of clothes, I'm deeply drawn to the large number of fabulous designs that are found exclusively at DownEast Basics. Here are a few examples--

The cheerful Wonderful World Dress

The classy On The Dot Top

The chic Short Story Sweater

The lively Turning Colors Skirt

And the hip Rock Star Jean from the newly launched denim line.
All these adorable designs can be ordered directly online at www.downeastbasics.com or at select B&M store locations. Don't forget to check out the sale section for deeply discounted but equally gorgeous items!
