The foliage has already started changing from Summer's zesty-green hue to Fall's vibrant combination of marigold, Bordeaux, and turmeric. There is a foreboding chill in the air but it's not only from the sliding temperatures.
Above are some items on my watch list. I'll periodically update the post as sale opportunities and new merchandise manifests itself.
The newly launched discount site, HauteFind is ushering in the cold weather season with deals you won't want to miss. Right now you can click over to the site and save up to 85% off a host of designer items including Valentino and Stuart Weitzman.
HauteFind is a unique designer discount site that works on a weekly rotation of markdowns. New heavily discounted designer merchandise is added every Sunday and each following week the reductions increase. The deals start out very good and waiting can mean a missed opportunity or increased savings. It's your call but these are the type of missed opportunities that will haunt you.
This week, the focus is on boots but that doesn't limit the deals in other categories. Here is an oversized denim Rockstud bag that's $1418 from $3545, a bi-color Candy Rockstud bag is $1200 from $3000, and a tri-color clutch with a chain is $1200 from $3045. There is also a great assortment of clothing for both women and men.
Everything sold on HauteFind completely authentic and brand authorized. Just a warning, the site is legitimately a discount lover's addiction. Once you get your Sunday shopping started it might be hard to stop.
In the past year, we have found ourselves shopping at Italian retailers as much as big neighborhood department stores. Even if the merchandise selection is very similar each store offers a distinct point of view and there is always an opportunity to find something new.
Modes, which is located in Sicily, is hosting a sale were past season merchandise is discounted up to 50% off. Check out this Saint Laurent blazer that's $1645 from $3300, a Balmain tank is $198 from $395, an Isabel Marant mini drawstring bag is $263 from $438, and this Balenciaga quilted leather belt bag is $532 from $887.
These Benedetta Bruzziches beaded bags are super popular throughout Italy and France and are reduced to $421 from $700. They have a similar shape to the Bottega Veneta pouch but the beading makes it a more glam and the prices are a lot less expensive. These Fendi espadrilles are $414 from $690, a Givenchy tote bag is $1074 from $1790 and these Balmain boots are $875 from $1750.
Modes offers free shipping and returns and all duties are included. That adds up to triple savings and is a great reason to keep the site bookmarked for future markdowns.
