    Last Days: Warehouse La Perla Blowout Sale

    That the mid-town warehouse sale, featuring La Perla was very, very good but it’s about to get extreme.  Like all great affairs, this one must come to an end but not without a grand gesture. Starting Friday morning, all merchandise will be reduced to $40 and under!

    Earlier this week, we went to check out the La Perla merchandise ourselves and cannot emphasize enough what a good sale this is. We spotted gorgeous silk patterned sarongs that are now going to be $20, there are caftans marked $200 that are just $30, there are $20 bikinis (top and bottom), sequined or mesh coverups are $30 (the retail prices are several hundred dollars), pajama sets and, of course, bras are $30 each or four for $100. Panties that were marked as high as $220 at retail area all just $18 a pair. There is also a super assortment of La Perla Studio merchandise that’s reduced to 10 pairs for just $100 or $12 each.

    You can see pictures of all the La Perla items we loved from the sale. Take note, this is a grab and go blowout sale. The fitting rooms will not be available and all sales are final. On the bright side, the sales help are super nice and helpful. The sale is also very well organized and orderly, which can be difficult with underpinnings.

    Third Markdown: Bergdorf Goodman 75% Off

    You should head straight to Bergdorf Goodman if you’re looking to shop truly amazing markdowns. Right now, designer clothing is discounted 75% off and most shoes and bags are reduced by 50%.

    We decided to get ahead of the weekend rush and scope out what’s treasures are still available. There aren’t many handbags left over. We spotted a few Christian Louboutin castaways and a few Valentino styles that were still overpriced.

    Moving on to the shoe department, there are still lots of great styles from which to choose. The discount is currently 50% off most shoes and boots. In stores, there are a scattering of Chanel and Louboutin shoes still left. The discount isn’t as high on these brands. More reduced finds include Valentino T-Strap Rockstuds that are about $472 from $950, Isabel Marant thong pool slides are $212 from $425, and Paul Andrew sandals are $400 from $800.

    Not surprisingly, the very best discounts can be found on the third floor. Designer clothing is now discounted up to 75%. A dramatic Thierry Mugler top is discounted to $577 from $1650, an Off-White cropped hoodie is $327 from $800. (Doesn’t that still seem insane? It’s a sweatshirt!) A denim skirt with a paisley print from Jonathan Simkhai is $93 from $375. An off-the-shoulder top from Joie is $62 from $250, an Erdem floral print dress is $1300 from $5200 and No. 21 silk dress is $700 from $1400.

    This is the last markdown of the season. In mid-July, there will be an extra 20% off promotion but, at that point, it takes a lot of digging to find the treasures.

    Neiman Marcus Third Markdown 70% Off

    Neiman Marcus just reduced its Summer merchandise to the third markdown. Today, we happened to be in the Jersey Garden’s Mall Neiman Marcus as employees started reducing prices. We were a bit excited (and over-spendy) as the price cuts were taken.

    You can see pictures here of what we saw at the store. Inside we found lots of Chanel, still only reduced 30% off. If you’re looking for higher discounts, we found several styles of Valentino shoes. These high heel white Rock Studs were reduced to $357 from nearly $900. Valentino pool slides are just $217 from $725. Hard to resist, right?

    Among the bags, we found a few Balenciaga styles. This market bag is $875 from $1750 and this double B bag is $875 from $1800 too. Among the clothing is this iconic Balmain pencil skirt that’s reduced to $1121 from $1495 and a No 21 lace top is $216 from $865.

    The sale is already live online but hasn’t been announced– yet. We suggest you start browsing before the official marketing begins. This will be the final markdown of the season but there will be additional promotions in mid-July.  Bergdorf Goodman’s third markdown started Wednesday and the discount is up to 75% off. Details to come…

    Nordstrom Designer Sale 70% Off

    If you haven’t browsed Nordstrom’s designer sale section, you should. Right now, you can find some really great classic and avant-garde European designer merchandise discounted 70% off.

    Inside we found JW Anderson logo espadrille-like shoes for $232 from $775, a sweatshirt from Dilara Findikoglu’s first standalone catwalk collection is reduced to $185 from $620, and Adam Lippes wide-leg pants are $386 from nearly $1300. There is also a whole lot of Calvin Klein Collection and Valentino shoes and clothing reduced to 70% off. There’s always this Balmain sequin dress or Off-White sweatpants. There are just too many options!

    Nordstrom usually doesn’t add another markdown in July. Some more merchandise might be further reduced but you can’t count on more than 70% off. The next big sale at Nordies is the ‘Anniversary event‘ and that’s essentially pre-fall collections.

    Warehouse Sale Spotlight: La Perla 80%+ Off

    There are sample sales, real sample sales and then there are the true warehouse clearance sales that offer the true bargains. Right now, shoppers can find a huge (HUGE) assortment of La Perla merchandise all discounted 80% or more. The sale boasts everything you love from La Perla at a price you can afford to really stock up.

    This warehouse sale, featuring La Perla, is fully stocked with bodysuits, bikinis, sarongs, shoes, bras, panties and everything you can think of to fill your lingerie drawer plus a large selection of beach and pool items. The best part is that the prices! Bras are $40 each or you can choose three bras for $100 (normally $140 to $500), babydoll negligees are $40 each (normally $600 to $1300), beach sarongs and coverups are priced between $25 and $40 (normally $300 and $1300) bodysuits and shapewear are $40 (normally $300 to $900 retail).

    You can head this way to see pictures from inside the sale. Shoppers can take advantage of two downstairs fitting rooms. You will not be disappointed. Take note, the atmosphere isn’t very fancy but after shopping, you will still have enough money left over for a fancy romantic dinner. The savings on a negligee can afford you a nice dinner at Stone Barns. Seems like a reasonable (and enjoyable) trade-off to us.

    Barneys Extra 25% Off Sale

    The markdown at Barneys is holding steady at a price cut of 60% but shoppers can now take advantage of an additional 25% off promotion. We know it’s not an official third markdown but it’s almost as good. On some items, the total savings tops 70% off.

    Some of the sale highlights include a Jimi Roos shirt dress with floral appliques that comes to about $100 from $365, an off-the-shoulder gingham blouse from GF Goldman is $170 from $550, a Faith Connexion chambray skirt is $225 from $745 and this Palm Angels tee is $110 from $365. Let’s put it this way, there is enough stuff to put together a really steller Summer waredrobe from a very small expense.

    Shoes and bags aren’t included in the extra 25% off but we’ll be keeping our eyes open. Barneys third markdown usually happens the last weekend of June and the discount is usually up to 75% off. Could you believe June ends this week? We will keep you posted!

    Summer Weekend Wearhouse Sale

    Summer shopping can be difficult, especially when the weather is nice and the beach is calling. One-stop-shopping is the way to go. Wearhouse, in Great Neck, is the premier destination for fantastic designer merchandise for amazing prices.

    Starting Sunday, the boutique is hosting a huge sale where Naeem Khan, M. Missoni, Valentino and Red Valentino will be discounted from 50% to 70% off. The massive retail space is essentially a designer outlet with all the furnishings of a high-end boutique. There are helpful salespeople and even a tailor on premises. This is the place you go to find real couture pieces for elaborate events, a demure cocktail dresses, polished work attire and even some elevated casual wear.

    We suggest you take inventory of your upcoming social calendar and plan appropriately. Who wouldn’t rather have real Valentino than a designer imposter from Zara? Keep an eye out for a great selection of eye-popping Rockstud shoes and bags, which we find nearly irresistible. (Unfortunately, the closet does not always agree.)

    You can click through to see some of the amazing pieces that can be found at Wearhouse. The best part is that phone orders and shipping are available. So, you might not even need to take your feet out of the pool to get the designer items you’ve been lusting after.

    Weekend Shopping: The Best of Sale

    It’s the first official weekend of Summer and we are just beginning to understand where we left off last year. We are just starting to understand what we truly want versus what we actually need. Third markdowns are still another few weeks away. Now is the perfect time to buy what you need now.

    Below are some items we are stalking. One must remember: Nobody can have everything! (Even if you try.)
