It's about time. With an estimated twenty-five percent of retailers predicted to go bankrupt in the new year, I was beginning to wonder what would the ladies streetwear industry do to prevent their labels from facing a similar fate: no longer market one hundred dollar hoodies or slash the prices on their basic graphic tees.

Well, not exactly.

DimePiece Designs, however, now offers a gift certificate service on its site. There is no minimum or maximum amount one has to add to the gift card, which allows for much-needed flexibility when trying to figure out the right amount to give to someone who is not really your friend but closer than an associate.

Why is this a good thing? Two reasons: Your friends and family will no longer have to guess what size and DimePiece item you would like to receive as a gift. And two, well, is there ever a downside to receiving gift certificate?

Meanwhile, DimePiece is still offering 20% off on purchases of at least $100.
