    15 Spring Items Already Selling Out

    The New Year just started and the hottest pieces of the new collections are already selling out. Of course, some shoppers want to be on top of the game but we still can’t believe how quickly fashion can fly.

    Some say that editors have all the power but it’s the consumer that always has the final say. This season, Tony the Tiger is the biggest fashion statement you can’t get. Anya Hindmarch’s is almost completely sold out everywhere. The only place we could find the Frosties Maxi bag is on the Anya site, which delivers to the US. When it comes to fashion, Miu Miu’s crochet tops ($1490) and dresses ($1355) are sold out everywhere online but are still available in boutiques and department stores.

    As far of collections go, shoe and handbag departments all over the country are being swamped with requests for products from Valentino’s 1973 rainbow collection. There is just one Rockstud micro shopper ($2175) left on Neiman Marcus and many sizes of Rockstud slingbacks ($1195) are sold out on Saks.
    On the more affordable scale, Alexa Chung’s collection for AG denim has been as hot as a July day. The hottest item is likely the Pixie dress ($455), which is practically sold out everywhere.

    If you’re the type that already sold your Celine bag for more than you paid, then you’re going to want to jump on Loewe and Delvaux. Both bags are gaining huge momentum among fashion insiders.
    This python Loewe Flaminco ($3950) is completely sold out.

    Today, we are focusing on where what the shopper are saying with their wallets. In order to compile this list of ‘sold out’ items we spoke high end retailers like Saks Fifth Avenue, Hirshleifers, Net-A-Porter and many more. Afterwards, we searched through dozens of online luxury stores. We suggest you snatch up anything on this list as nothing begets demand like the lack of supply.

    Anya Hindmarch Frosties leather tote ($2295)
    Miu Miu cashmere crochet dress ($1355)
    Rosantica arm cuff ($665)
    Valentino 1973 Rockstud slingbacks ($1195)

    Bergdorf Goodman Online Blowout & Beauty Bonus

    It’s now or never if you’re looking to catch the last of this season’s deals. Right now, Bergdorf Goodman is offering an extra 25% off merchandise that has already been marked down 75%. That brings the total savings to over 80%.

    Head this way and you’ll find a Derek Lam sleeveless dress that’s reduced to $335 from $1790, Tom Ford high boots come to $750 from $2000, a Mary Katrantzou dress is $285 from $1520 and a Pucci shift dress is $325 from $1725. Among the contemporary designers we found an Alice and Olivia dress reduced to $150 from almost $600, a Halston Heritage jacket is $73 from about $400 and black and white check Rag & Bone jeans are $50 from $265.

    If you have kids you have to check out the Moncler sale selection. The discount is just a straight 30% but there are some good options from which to choose. Here is a basic black for $416 from $600 and a baby puffer for $427 from $610.

    The sale continues until Tuesday at 9am. After that, it’s probably time to start lusting after full price spring fashions.

    Almost as noteworthy, that the lavender lady is also hosting a beauty event. When you spend $250, you will be given a tote filled with dozens of deluxe size samples, including Sulwhsoo, Hourglass, YSL and Laura Mercier. Some of our beauty obsessions include, anything Tom Ford (of course), the Sisley- Paris Black Rose Precious Face Oil (to fight winter dryness) and Bakel’s EFABody bomb, which is a great way to stop winter dry-skin itchiness. The gift bag promotion starts Monday and runs through Sunday, February 1.

    DVF Final Markdown Offers Sample Sale Prices

    We can’t deny that we’ve horribly missed the Diane von Furstenberg sample sale thus season. Of course, a substitute will do — if the price is right. Unfortunately, there are no upcoming dates to announce but Diane Von Firstenberg is hosting an online sale and prices aren’t far off from the iconic sample sale.

    Through the end of Monday, shoppers can use the code JAN20 and save an extra 20% off already reduced merchandise. The prices at the sample sale would run $150 for classic wrap dresses, $125 for non-wrap dresses and $80 for sweaters. If you head this way, and use the extra 20% off, you can pay just $110 for this solid color wrap dress. A simple black knit dress, comes to just $80. The price of this super simple and clean cotton wrap shirt dress is $160.

    At past sample sales the bags and accessories were a huge hit but they were still very pricey. Bags were priced at $285, clutches were $100 and scarves were $75. Online now, you can snag this snakeskin clutch for $115 and a snake-skin cross body bag for $140.

    The best part of this sale is that there are no lines, no crowded fitting rooms and purchases are returnable. Unfortunately, we don’t usually come across sample sales with the same consumer friendly rules. Like sample sales, the super sale merchandise is final sale.

    Century 21 Has Lanvin, Prada and Cucinelli for 95% Off

    If you think the deals from the Bergdorf Goodman shopping trip were good, then you are going to need to heed our advice. First, open your calendar, find a window of about four hours and block it off for a trip to Century 21‘s downtown flagship. Okay, you may not need four hours but there’s no way you will want to feel rushed once you get into the thick of things.

    Pucci $288

    Right now, Century has reduced a large assortment of merchandise an extra 75% off. Not 75% off retail but 75% off Century’s prices, which brings the discount to 90% off on many items. Among the outerwear is a pony hair Pucci moto-style jacket that is reduced to just $288 from an original retail price of $4280, a Lanvin puffer is $288 from $3616 and a Brunello Cucinelli jacket is $373 from $3920. We even found a long black Hermes coat for $2295 from who-knows-what. Click here to see pics.

    Most of the discounts are 50% off the most reduced price but after you get a taste of 75%, anything less seems like overpaying. To find the most reduced clothing you will have to head to the far back left hand quarter where there are several racks labeled 75% off. Most of the racks say medium but all the sizes are really mixed in.

    Among the clothing racks we found an Antonio Berardi dress for $150 from $1750, a Prada shift dress for $273, a Brunello Cucinelli dress for $160 from $1790, a Stella McCartney top was $82 and a classic ruffled Lanvin dress is $244. There is also an assortment of items of finely made clothing from lesser known designers like Bibhu Mohapatra and Chalayan Black. Both designers retail dresses for over $2000 and but the prices are now reduced to about $160.

    The biggest problem with shopping these discounts is not to overbuy. The temptation is hard but nobody has the closet space for all of Century’s reduced merchandise. Or perhaps, you do. Either way, we suggest you make this an immediate part of your end-of-season shopping.

    Lanvin $331
    Antonio Berardi $150
    Pucci $298
    Prada $274
    Lanvin $288
    Chaylan $170
    Cucinelli $373
    Cucinelli $89
    Hermes $2295
    Cucinelli $161

    Sample Sale Prices at Bergdorf Goodman (30+ Pics)

    The general consensus when shopping this late in the season is that you will only find the rejects left over. We challenge any fashion lover to shop Bergdorf Goodman’s final markdown and leave empty handed. Right now, the markdown is 50% off shoes and handbags and up to 75% off on clothing.

    In the first floor, handbag atrium, there is only one table of discounted handbags. Even though there isn’t a lot of selection, the options that are left are not horrible. Some might even say they’re good. A PS11 is about $1000 from $1990, a Tom Ford calf hair Alix is $1870 from $3740 and a Stella McCartney rope embellished clutch is $759 from $1520. A full assortment of pictures can be seen here.

    The discount on shoes is still just 50% off, where the discount at Barneys is 60%. The difference is that Bergdorf Goodman has a lot more classic wearable shoes. As a matter of fact a bulk of the inventory is Christian Louboutin and Manolo Blahnik. Among the Louboutins is a mid-high pump with PVC around the parameter for $350 from $695 and the flat version is $319 from $595. (These are almost sample sale prices.) Cabochon embellished extra high Loubs are $700 from about $1400 and a studded version with patent detailing and bows are $650 from $1295. Broadening out from the red soles, we found our favorite Givenchy shark bit riding boots for $729 from $1450, Valentino Rockstud pony hair booties are $1719 from $2295 and Chanel quilted low moto boots are $709 from $1425. Check out pics of everything mentioned here.

    Be prepared to make tough choices once you direct yourself towards the fashion because nobody can have it all. The selection ranges from quality basics to refined statement pieces. Falling into the more demure category is this Giambasttista Valli  classic gray cashmere dress is $790 from almost $2000, Celine black slacks are $619 from $1550 and a Balenciaga tulip skirt is $379 from $1535. Some of the more incredible fashion pieces include a heavy winter weight Alaia dress that’s $1400-ish from $5565, heavy weight Givenchy pants with zipper details are $839, a Mary Katrantzou asymmetrical dress is $1600 from $6400 and a Prada coat comprised of pieties and trimmed with mohair is $849 from $3200. (Here are pics.)

    Some contemporary merchandise is 75% off but the majority is discounted 60%. After coming from the premier fineries it’s hard to settle your tastebuds on lesser reduced fashion. Among the selection is a lot more trendy and comprised of designers like Phillip Lim, Alexander Wang, DVF and M Missoni.

    There isn’t much merchandise online but with a little bit of sorting you can find a few winners. A lot of the bags are priced higher online but if you call the 800-number, a representative will connect with the store and make a price adjustment. Now, look through the rest of the pictures here and call for  your car, NOW!

    Net-A-Porter Final Clearance Extra 20%

    This is what end of season shoppers call the final bow. As usual, Net-A-Porter is ending the season with an extra 20% off some sale merchandise. The additional discount brings the total markdown to over 80% on some items.

    Use the code 20SALE at checkout. Take note, the additional discount CAN’T be used on items already labeled final markdown. Some applicable highlights include a Victoria Beckham dress for about $700 from $3000, a Fendi skirt that’s $425 from $1700 and a Lanvin print jumpsuit is about $900 from nearly $4000.

    This sale usually lasts only two days. We suggest you snatch up what you can because the next time you see this selection it will be priced higher on the Outnet.

    Where to Buy Fashionable Athletic Clothing

    Chances are that if you made a new years resolution it was to work out more or lose weight. Even if you made a deal with yourself to be more lazy in 2015, you may need a bit of motivation to make it through month one. We find the best motivation is always fashion. It’s a wonder how much a new sports bra (or lounge pants) can motivate you to continue to accomplish your fitness goal.

    Below is some of the best deals on the hottest athletic clothing:

    Stella McCartney
    Adidas isn’t one of the most sought out brands by fashion insiders but once you slap on a Stella McCartney a Class Pass becomes irresistible. The most obvious place to shop for the designer altheltic line is Adidas, of course. Even though there is a great selection, the prices seem to be the highest.

    If you want to grab a few deals on the outgoing season of Stella McCartney x Adidas, you’re going to have to hop around to a few sites and grab the odds and ends. For example, Net-A-Porter has this print running tank for 50% off $95. The matching running pants are on Kirna Zabete for $63 from $90. Over on the international site, MyTheresa, you will find a good selection of Stella gym fineries discounted between 30% to 40%. Be sure to also check out the designer’s own site. Some items are priced well, while other pieces can be found for less on other sites.

    Lululemon
    It’s not what it used to be but neither is Equinox. The brand is famous for not having sales but we’ve noticed more merchandise on the markdown racks than ever. Online shoppers will need to head to the ‘We Made too Much‘ section, which is a euphemism for ‘if we reduce it by a dollar will you buy it?’ This zippy pullover is $69 from $128, these Skinny Groove pants are $69 from $98 and a basic sports bra is $39 from $52.

    Athleta
    Gap’s Athleta may not yet be the go-to for mainstream athletic clothing but the collections are growing stronger every season–minus those strange skirt legging combos. The best part is that they have a healthy sale section. Right now, many items are reduced 40% to 50% off. After Christmas there was an additional 20% off promo but it’s not currently available. Keep your eyes open. For now, you can find these cross runner tights, which are also really soft, for $60 for $79, a puffer bomber jacket is $65 from $78 and here is a hooded zippy for $42 from $98.

    Target C9
    It comes a time when you’re shopping that you say– this is totally fine. And guess what? Target’s C9, Champion collection, is perfectly acceptable–for everything from Soul Cycle to Blink. The best part is that right now there is a promotion on the athletic collection. These capri leggings are $21 from $35, this fleece jacket is $21 from $30 and here’s a tank for $19 from $27.
