    Farfetch Extra 20% Off Sale

    The sale selections at our local haunts are getting pretty dismal but overseas stores are much better stocked and the discounts are starting to get competitive. Farfetch started a promotion today where sale merchandise is discounted an extra 20%. Use the code 20FAR to engage the additional discount.

    The situation is such that many designer items are not included in the sale. Another blip we’ve noticed is that some of the stores that sell on  Farfetch are inflating retail prices. To top it all off, prices seem to switch way too frequently to confidently post prices.

    Among the bags, we found this Fendi Kan I  and a silver Bottega pouch. It’s available in black too. A nano-size Eden bag and this YSL quilted camera bag is $960 from $1850– if you can get the code to work. Among the shoes, there are these Fendi slingbacks,  Fendi ankle boots and Saint Laurent Tribute platforms. Golden Goose sneakers are $240 from $450.

    Frankly, the Farfetch experience isn’t supporting a lot of confidence. It’s absolutely worth checking but maybe for items that you have previously been stalking.

    Coltorti: Big End-Of-Season Discounts

    A lot of our local stores are completing sale season but that the world is big. Sale season ain’t over just yet! Coltorti is a multi-brand store with several boutiques along the Eastern coast of Italy and they are offering an extra 25% off Spring and Summer merchandise with the code DEALMOON25.

    Some of the more interesting purchases include items from this past winter season. This woman’s Moose Knuckles puffer comes to $233 from about $600, a Mr. & Mrs. Italy parka is $670 from  $1040 and this Woolrich parka with a fur hood is $486 from $1100. Okay, maybe we are getting ahead of ourselves– it’s still August.

    Head over this way to find the perfect pink Mansur Gavriel bucket bag for $350 from $600. This YSL smoking jacket is $1000 from $2250 and here is a double-breasted style. Over this way is a Fendi logo pencil skirt that’s $465 from $1100 US and this Dolce & Gabbana bustier is $330 from $735.

     It’s really worth a scroll. There are lots of gems. It’s also worth noting that there are no taxes or duties and shipping is just $15.

    Weekend Shopping: Impulses & Obsessions

    It’s hard to believe it we are already in the depths of mid-August. Sale season has never gone this long and it’s really beginning to come to an end. On the bright side, that will give us some time to point our attention focused on soaking in the last days of Summer. I really try to use this time to direct my attention towards the kids and create memories that will withstand a decade of time.

    In shopping news, the end-of-season sales are nearly all over. Net-A-Porter will close out their sale section on Monday. There won’t be any additional markdowns or promotions. If there is anything you’ve been stalking, now would be the time to pull the trigger.

    Some of the available highlights include this Tom Ford tote that’s $1200 from $2400. These Givenchy knee-high boots are perfect for fall and ring in at $718 from $1800 and Balenciaga slingbacks are $475 from $950. The best deals are among the clothing.

    It’s also worth noting that the Saks sale is nearing its end. It’s been hard to keep up as new merchandise is constantly being added. Some new finds include this Zimmerman silk blouse for $470 from $900 and these Midnight 00 tulle heels are $333 from $1110. I added some new markdowns to the post here.

    The Nordstrom Anniversary sale will go public on Wednesday. Some of the sale highlights include Vega sneakers for $112 from $150 and this La Mer mini hydration beauty kit for $90. You can click over to our Nordstrom post to see all of my top picks from the sale.

    The LuisaViaRoma new season sale is worth a check-out. The newest fall collection is reduced 20% off. No code is needed. The discount is automatically applied once items are placed in your cart. Some highlights include a Mansur Gavriel pouch that comes to $480 from $600 and a larger size Jacquemus bag $500 from $630. More details are over this way.

    That’s all folks. Until next time… same time, same place?

    LuisaViaRoma 20% Off Fall Collection

    LuisaViaRoma is hosting an anniversary sale were the newest fall collection is reduced 20% off. No code is needed. The discount is automatically applied once items are placed in your cart.

    Some of the highlights include this Mansur Gavriel pouch that comes to $480 from $600 and here is another version with a strap that’s $400 from $500.  Manolo Blahnik jeweled “birks” are $770 from $960 and we always love a Max Mara camel color coat as it’s $1350 from $1700. These mid-size Jacquemus bags are always early-season sell-outs and worth snagging for $500 from $630. There are more Jacquemus color and size options here.

    The site still has a very robust sale section comprised of Summer and past season markdowns. Check out this satin embroidered midi-dress that’s $293 from $838 and this linen dress is about $180 from $451. We are crazy about these bi-color heels that are $180 from $365.

    If you’re not averse to full price, the Gucci selection of ready-to-wear and accessories is really great. There are even home accessories, which even includes wallpaper that can be beautifully framed.

    We personally love shopping at LVR. Purchases always come incredibly fast and beautifully packaged. It’s *almost* as good as going to Florance and shopping in person. (Who are we kidding!)

    Intermix: VIP Link to 30% Off

    Intermix started a flash sale that will save you a selection of priced merchandise. The sale isn’t slated to start until Thursday but you can use this “VIP link” to access the savings now.

    Some of the notable items are this LoveShackFancy eyelet minidress that comes to $262 from $375, a SEA sweatshirt is $105 from $150, and this Grlfrnd strapless denim dress is $187 from $268.  This Dion Lee corset is insanity but selling out in many sizes. We love the rose quartz on these Lizzie Fortunato earrings that are now $205 from $295.

    This sale will open to the public on Thursday and be done after one day. The discounts aren’t as good as the sale-on-sale promotions but, at this point, the assortment of good options is plentiful.

    Sephora Sale: 50% Off

    A sample sale consisting of discounted beauty products might not yield enough savings to justify a journey. Give us beauty discounts just a few clicks away and we are on it. Right now you can save up to 50% off a great assortment of luxury beauty items from Sephora.

    Some of the highlights include a great selection of Tom Ford lipsticks that are just $18 from $38 and lip lacquer is $27 from $55.  We also suggest snagging a Marc Jacobs foundation for $28 from $55 and here are Marc Jacobs lipsticks for $16 from $32.

    If you’ve been curious about the Amika hairdryer, this would be a good time to give it a “spin.” It’s currently reduced to $180 from $300. Some people say it’s better than the Dyson. Here is the curl set for $150 from $250.

    The sale section is pretty well-stocked at the moment and there are no lines to check out. (Ha-ha) It’s no doubt that this is an ideal way to shop at Sephora (even if it’s not on sale).

    Saks End-of-Season Markdowns

    At this late date, it’s possible that current markdowns are orthogonal to COVID. After all, it’s August and retailers must wave their Summer merchandise good-bye. The end-of-season discounts at Saks Fifth Avenue are rather good shouldn’t go overlooked.

    We were surprised to see any discounted designer handbags but there are some notable finds. This Givenchy top-handle bag is now $1075 from $1250 and this Valentino belt bag is $838 from $2100. Among the shoes are these Balenciaga glitter Knife shoes for $278 from $600, Valentino boots are $660 from $1650 and Gucci slides are $475 from $950.

    Shoes and handbags are always nice but the clothing options are even better. Here is a an Alaia dress for $850 from $3500, The Row skinny pants are $228 from $950, and a Saint Laurent satin blazer is $860 from $3600.

    We are at the end of the season. Prices are unlikely to go any lower. We suggest you take a final scroll before we begin back-to-school talks.

    Introducing: Online Discount Store Haute Find

    The novelty of discount stores and flash sales has waned over the course of Corona. It’s a new era in shopping and the newly launched concept of HauteFind is ushering in a new concept that’s both exciting and deal worthy.

    HauteFind is fully stocked with unbelievable authentic designer deals from Valentino, Anya Hindmarch Stuart Weitzman, and more. The site works on a weekly rotation of markdowns. New heavily discounted designer merchandise is added every Sunday and each following week the reductions increase.

    The kicker is that sizes and quantities are limited. The deals start out very good and waiting can mean a missed opportunity or increased savings. It’s your call but nail-biting is unseemly.

    Let’s take a closer look. Over here is a gorgeous Valentino Rockstud tote that is perfect for work and is reduced all the way down to $686 from nearly $2500. This Valentino Rockstud crossbody camera bag is currently $291 from $895. We can’t even believe they lasted to this markdown!

    These Valentino Rockstud pool slides already went to a forth-week discount and are just $200 from $725. These Stuart Weizman platforms are also a week-four deal and are only  $153 from $555.

    The site is also stocked with fabulous ready-to-wear. Here is an Anya Hindmarch sweater for $207 from $995, This lace top is a forever piece and comes to $300 from $1450 and this print silk shirt is $283 from nearly $1900

    The site is fully stocked with great items for men too. Don’t miss the large assortment of Valentino sneakers and men’s bags. Actually, the bags are perfect for anyone. Here is a camo backpack for $551 from $2000 and this pouch is $215 from $775. Both make very impressive gifts too.

    Everything for sale on HauteFind completely authentic and brand authorized. Just a warning, the site is legitimately a discount lover’s find. Once you get started shopping it might become addicting.
