Wednesday Wildcard: Sample Sale Roundup

9/22/2010

 
My apologies in advance to all of my readers who don't live in the NYC area, but this week we have such a great lineup of sample sales that I just couldn't resist sharing them with all of you!

1. First up this week, we have the sale of ALL sample sales going on...the one New Yorkers look forward to all year, and the place where every girl can go to find her own little treasure in a lovely orange box!  That's right people it's HERMES SAMPLE SALE time once again in New York City!  Here are the details:

Hermes Sample Sale

317 West 33rd Street at Soiffer Haskin (between 8th & 9th)
Wednesday, September 22, 9am-6pm
Thursday-Saturday, September 23-25, 9am-8pm
Sunday, September 26, 1pm-5pm

The Hermes Sale opened its doors on Tuesday to shoppers with VIP status and early access passes, and so far the reviews seem mixed.  According to Madison Avenue Spy, insiders were disappointed with the sale's selection this year, indicating that the handbag selection was less than stellar, and the main highlight of the sale was the variety of thin enamel bangles that were marked down from $460 to $184. 

Although I don't know if this review sounds so bad to me...I must admit that I think I would stand in line just for the enamel bangles alone!

And for those of you who are thinking of braving this famed sale, don't lose hope!  Fashion Writer Jim Shi who tweeted inside from the sale was much more positive about the sale's selection, and commented that shoppers should expect a wide selection of ties for $100, beautiful oversized scarves, fragrances, and a variety of men's shirts.

2. Second up this week is the Milly Sample Sale that started yesterday and will continue through today, September 22.  If you are fan of this preppy, polished, and sophisticated line of designer dresses and feminine pieces than you should check out this sale before it ends tonight!

Here is one of my favorite pieces from this lovely designer's collection...boy would I have loved to have had this beautiful dress in my rotation this summer!  This sale includes designer samples of blouses, dresses, sweaters, skirts, and more!  Here are the details on the sale:

New York, NY 10018
September 21 and 22, 11:00am to 7:00pm

3. Third up this week is news on the upcoming J.Crew sample sale that will be hitting NYC next week!  I have heard mixed reviews regarding this semi-annual sale, but given how much I love J.Crew, I can't imagine that taking the time to check out this cult classic's line of preppy and polished staples could possibly be considered a waste of time.

What do you think Mickey and Jenna?  Should we all make the trip over to 36th street next week to check out the sale?

Well you know when J.Crew calls my name it's hard for me not to answer...so for all of you who are strongly considering taking a LONG lunch break to hit up this sale here are the details...

4. And finally, it's just not fair for us New Yorker's to have all the fun!  Check out this post on Madison Avenue Spy for info on an amazing Christian Louboutin sale that is rumored to start today on TheOutnet!

And if Christian Louboutins on sale is still not your idea of a bargain, why not check out Piperlime?  They have such a great selection of shoes and boots for fall, and they are dong a 20% off promotion on selected fall styles today only. 

Just use the promotion code: 20SPREE at checkout!

And did I mention the free shipping and returns?  What are you waiting for???

Will you be checking out any of these designer sales this week?  Or do you know of any deeply discounted designer sales that I forgot?

Have a lovely Wednesday and as always...Spend Less, Live Better!
