    Saks Sale Lives On, Online

    Saks Fifth Avenue touted it’s final sale earlier this month with discounts frozen at 70% off. The merchandise has been officially cleared from sales floors and relocated online.

    Right now, you can search some of the most fashionable items from designer’s winter collection discounted up to 60% off. (Remember, most all these items were once reduced 70% off but there was a no return policy.) This is a good opportunity to snag what’s left from winter sales without a lifetime commitment.

    Some sale highlights include a Givenchy stopped pencil skirt for $519 from $1290, a Stella McCartney mesh sleeve dress is $569 from $1425 and this Altuzarra mixed patterned shirt dress is about $400 from almost $1000. The sale also includes shoes but the discount is just 50% off.

    We wouldn’t be surprised if this winter merchandise were to hang out online for a bit longer. We would expect that there will be some additional surprise discounts but the markdown may not go above 70%.

    Brian Atwood One Day Sample Sale

    It’s been some time since Brian Atwood hosted a sample sale. Last time there was an hour wait to get into this designer sale. Considering the extreme cold, you might want to think twice before heading to the designer’s showroom in Chelsea.

    We are told that the sale will consist of shoes from the fall 2014 collection and prices will be up to 70% off retail. At the last sale, sample sizes ranged from size 37 to 41, with a random scattering of 35s and 36s. The most plentiful assortment ranged from size 39 to 41.

    At the last sale prices ranged from $350 to $400, with a scattering of flats for less money. Python heels were $500 and a few pair of boots were $1200. OTK boots–over-the-knee–were the most expensive at $2900. We would imagine that the price range will be quite similar.

    Since the sale takes place at the designer’s showroom there is a chance that you may be able to call ahead to get information rather than freezing outside. Sale details, including the showroom phone number are below.

    Nordstrom 40% Off Sale

    Earlier this year, Nordstrom announced they would end the tradition of its half-yearly sale and instead host six smaller sales. These smaller sales are said to coincide with national holiday weekends, when Americans tend to shop.

    This week, ostensibly alongside President’s weekend, Nordstrom is hosting a sale where a large assortment of items are reduced to 40% off. Among the designer merchandise is this small Chloe Baylee bag that is $1300 from $2250, Ferregamo snakeskin sandals are $845 from $1690 and a Rag & Bone shearling is $1340 from $2500.

    After sorting and resorting the sale merchandise, it seems as much of the sale inventory are items that fall into the transitional-spring category and holdovers from the winter sale. For example, this 3.1 Phillip Lim sweater is from the winter 2014 collection and is now 65% off and this 3.1 Phillip Lim shift dress is more traditional to spring and is now reduced 40%. There also seems to be a lot of great premium denim options, most of which are marked 40% off.

    The sale will continue through February 22nd. The next big holiday weekend is Memorial Day, which falls on May 26th this year. No need to speculate what will be on sale during that sale.

    Jonathan Adler 70% Off

    Jonathan Adler doesn’t seem to hold the same novelty it did, say, three years ago. Perhaps it’s because of the brand’s rapid expansion or the way other companies have captured a similar esthetic. A discount ranging from 30% to 70% off, however, has us taking a closer look at the knickknacks and home furnishings.

    Among the bedding we found a queen sized print coverlet is $150 from $575, white sheets with navy print trim are $70 from $275 and a grey geometric duvet cover is also $70 from $225. This adorable jute pouch is a great little gift item fort $19 from almost $70 and a zippy wallet is $22 from $78. Housewares are a bit more expensive with the discounts ranging from 30% to 70% off. Throw pillows, like this one, are 50% off and this rococo side table is $260 from $400.

    If you go to the store, you’ll also find lots of furniture floor samples on sale. Prices are comparable to West Elm or CB2 after the discount but the design is a bit brighter and kitschier.
