It's true, we're officially in a recession. And that means saving money. Luckily shopping online makes saving money really easy, and the discounts get better every day. I usually wait until mid-December, at the last possible moment, before I start buying Christmas gifts because that's when retailers start giving the deepest discounts.

And if you have fashion lovers on your Christmas list, no worries - I've found a bunch of totally affordable yet fashionable items for your loved one that are under $50. Check them out here:

1. Kashmere Gloves
These gloves are really soft, stylish, and totally affordable! And they come in several really bright colors like red, orange, green & blue. And did I mention they're 100% cashmere.

2. John Lennon Silk Tie
Imagine there's no gift better than this one for the man in your life. This 100% silk tie is no ordinary tie - it's got John Lennon's self portrait on it - and it's purple! A definite conversation starter.

3. Dean Harris for Target
This designer's quartz necklace was featured in this month's Vogue. Check out his affordable line of quartz earrings and nature-inspired jewelry from Target.

4. Anna Hindmarch Handbags
Speaking of Target, designer Anna Hindmarch has handbags & clutches for Target that run around $20-$40. Which is amazing, considering her stuff retails for around $1,000.

5. Tasha Swirl Floral Headband
Headbands are all the rage now (thank Gossip Girl). They're cute, affordable, and totally glam up any outfit. I like Nordstrom's selection of headbands, especially the Tasha brand headbands, value-priced around $40.

6. Simply Vera by Vera Wang
You probably already know that the amazing designer Vera Wang has a line at Kohl's called Simply Vera. But did you know her pajama sets, shoes, totes, and shirts are only around $40? WHAT??!! I know. Get thee to Kohl's before the cute pieces are gone.

7. August Silk Clothing
I love this brand of clothing. It's cute, modern clothing with a bit of a flair. Perfect for women who want to look stylish but not over the top. And it's on sale everywhere right now it seems. Check out their cute lambswool jackets.

8. The New York Look Book
I. Love. This. Book. Perfect for the proud New Yorker, it has great images of New York street fashion, plus helpful info on how to get the look and where to shop. A must-have for anyone studying fashion or just people who love clothing. And it's less than $20

9. Betsey Johnson Cosmetics Case
If you know me, you know that Betsey Johnson is on my top 5 fave designers list. I love her quirky, eclectic styles but sometimes am a bit too timid to try them out. That's why her cosmetic bags make the perfect gift. You can help jazz up someone's style without making them flaunt it. And these bags are adorable.

10. Gabriella Rocha Rain Boots
If you don't own Gabriella Rocha shoes, you're missing out. And these rain boots make the perfect gift. Find out their size, then order a pair - they are too cute to be passed up!

11. UGG Slippers
If you love UGG, why not get your favorite guy or gal or even kid a pair of UGG slippers? They're cute, comfy, and on sale at a variety of stores. You can usually find select pairs for under $50.

12. Earth Axxessories Handbags
Have you ever wanted a handbag made out of jute? Now's your chance. The Earth Axxessories brand makes fabulous, eco-friendly and ADORABLE handbags from jute, hemp, straw, and silk. They are on incredible sales right now and are sooo cute.

13. Timex Watches
Remember how cool the 80s were? Bring them back and give to the stylish man, woman, or child in your life. So many designs and colors&they'll LOVE it!

14. Kenneth Cole Ballet Flats
Ballet flats are great gifts. They're cute, come in TONS of different designs, and Kenneth Cole flats are totally affordable. Great for little girls and big ones too!

15. Ed Hardy Belts, Boxers & Thongs
Believe it or not, this fantastic Los Angeles designer offers items for under $50. Ed Hardy is all the rage right now so if you've got a teen or man in your life that loves designer gear, they'll love these items under $50.

16. Ray Ban Juniors
Ray Bans are pretty cool, but Ray Ban Juniors are adorable! And affordable. And for kids!

17. Sassy Cook Aprons
I wouldn't ordinarily recommend aprons as a gift item, but these Sassy Cook aprons are so stylish! From whimsical owl patterns to cowgirls, these aprons have style - and some of them even have fringe! Goes great with matching potholders and napkins.

18. Project Runway Design Sets
From Project Runway sketch books to projector sets, these items are perfect for that budding young fashionista - and they're affordable!

19. Envirosax Reusable Grocery Bags
Not only are these grocery bags absolutely adorable, they're affordable! Perfect for the eco-fashionistas or fashion Mr's in your life.

This lipgloss case is more than meets the eye. It's filled with nine gorgeous lip colors AND it's a cute metallic clutch!
