    Weekend Shopping: Impulses & Obsessions

    Usually, a season is defined by a trend or specific item. In recent years, chunky Balenciaga sneakers, fur-lined Gucci slides, bright Bottega pouches, and Off-White arrow sweatshirts have all provided a moment of need. 

    Even as the Spring tulips begin to wilt and cherry blossoms blow from their branches, it’s hard to identify even a single item worthy of mass attention. Some identify the pandemic for the lack of trends this season others point towards a lack of cohesiveness among the fashion community.
    Regardless of the reason, a season without trends is disenchanting to the fashion consumer. After all, there can’t be any thrill in the chase if there is no prey. For now, we may find contentment in making our own trends.
    The British store, LN-CC took 30% off markdowns on a variety of items. You can use this link to access the discounted assortment. Highlights include this new style Valentino Roman Stud bag that’s $1800 from $2600, a Balenciaga Nano City bag for $1400 from $2000, a Prada nylon messenger bag is $937 from $1250, and this Saint Laurent Envelop bag is $945 from $1260. Take note, there are no taxes or duties when shopping from LN-CC.
    You might be able to score big at Coltorti. You can use the code DEALMOON15 to save 15% off any item that’s accompanied by a star. Check out the Golden Goose, Fendi, and Bottega Veneta. Again, there are no duties or taxes and most items are priced under US retail, which significantly adds to the savings. 
    If you need a quick gift for Mother’s Day. Saks is offering 10% beauty items. Use the code STYLE21SF to  egage the discount at checkout. The promotion ends Saturday night but we have lots more Mother’s Day gift ideas in this post. 
    Savannah’s is hosting a weekend sale where lots of designer shoes are discounted 40% off. No code is needed. There are also no taxes or duties, which adds to the savings. Be on the lookout for savings up to 40% off on Christian Louboutin, Manolo Blahnik, Alexander McQueen, and Alaia. You can see all the details in the post here. 

    LuisaViaRoma is offering 20% off a selection of Spring merchandise. You can use this link to accessall of the items included in the promotion. At checkout, use the code DAILY20 to engage the savings. Take note, not all items are included in the promotion but you can see the full details here.

    Ssense started a promotion where you can save 15% off with the code SHOP15. The situation is such that there are so many exclusions that it’s almost difficult to find qualifying items. You can see all the exclusions and the best buys here. 

    I also found lots of temptation at MadaLuxe Vault. Golden Goose sneakers are discounted 25% off, some hot Balenciaga bags discounted 30%, and Alexandre Birman shoe styles are reduced up to 70% off. The sunglass selection is spectacular. Nearly all Gucci sunglasses are reduced priced at $129 and $189. Bottega Veneta sunnies are $129 and they come with a great woven carrying pouch. Click here to see all of our top hits.

    This week we focused on the silk scarf as a must-have item for Summer. Is it a trand or just a classic?  Is there an item that you can’t live without this season? Let us know in the comment section below. 

    Stay tuned. Until next time… same time, same place?

    The IT-It: The Silk Scarf

     Every well-stocked closet needs a silk scarf (or two, or many). It’s never been more true than this season where the scarf is taking the stage as the most versatile accessory. The silk square can be worn around the neck, in your hair, or even styled as a top. Larger sizes can be used on the beach or pool as a pareo and in a pinch, it can be used as a face mask.

    As Mother’s Day approaches thought it was the perfect time to spotlight this classic accessory as the must-have item of the season. This simple square offers a lot of bang for the buck and with a little bit of imagination can be used in a variety of ways.

    Hermes silk scarves are the golden standard but we also love a great Pucci or Missoni print. A Versace motif is always perfect, the Gucci florals are works of art and a Dior oblique is as Haute as they come this season. 

    If you’re thinking of offering a scarf as a gift, you can pair it with the book How to Tie a Scarf: 33 Styles. We also love the old Hermes scarf catalogs as a gift accompaniment. Alternatively,  you can click to the Hermes website where there are lots of tutorials and ideas. 

    There really are no right or wrong answers when it comes to tying your silk scarf. The only faux pas is leaving them unworn in the boxes. (Guilty!)
