SAMPLE SALES 🌷🌷🌷 for May

May 1, 2017 by Lila Delilah

The Park Avenue tulips have blossomed, the Met Ball is moments away and mothers everywhere are about to be celebrated. Yes, it’s May, the biggest month for Spring sample sales. It’s the perfect time to plan for long weekends, strolls through town and bike rides to the beach.

We’ve exclusively listed only the sample sales that we think are worthy of your time and effort. The post will continue to be updated throughout the month and remain just a click away in the right sidebar. You can also follow along on Instagram, Twitter or Facebook to get quick and immediate updates. Feel free to leave feedback in the comments section so that everyone can benefit from the ‘Spy’ network.

Nest Fragrances
You can stock up on Spring scents at the Nest sample sale. Usually prices are about half off popular candles but there are often reductions as the sale goes on. We have been lucky enough to stock up on candles and hand soaps for $10 a piece. The problem is always the line to check out. Waiting on line tends to diminish the savings and our patience. The sale is being shared with S’well but if you have more than two bottles, you probably have enough.

Dresses were priced between $175 and $450, outerwear ranged from $175 to $500 and shoes were just $100.

Dolce & Gabbana
Dolce & Gabbana sale never fails to deliver. It’s a sale worth getting excited about. Expect to find an offering of womenswear, menswear, shoes, bags, intimates, jewelry, small leather goods and other accessories from past collections. During the fall sale prices were reduced 80% to 90% off retail. The one drawback is that the great discounts attracts great crowds. Shoppers complained of waiting over three hours on the second day of the sale. Be warned. This year can even be worse and Soiffer Haskin shows no mercy.
