Update: Blue & Cream is hosting a sale where all Golden Goose sneakers are 40% off. Use the code GG40 to engage the discount.

I remember having a teacher who would never say it’s been “a bad day” or “a hard day” because she believed that every day was a blessing. A “challenging day” would be referred to as simply “A Day.” I think it’s fair to say we’ve had “A Week.”

We are living through what is likely to become the most remarkable moments of our lives. We are collectively scared and confused. Regardless of politics, it’s important to be kind, generous, and compassionate. When we can check all those boxes, progress begins.

Today, Target launched a trio of designer collaborations: LoveShackFancy, Cushnie, and Lisa Marie Fernandez. Here is a white linen blend dress from Lisa Marie that’s $60, and a cotton floral print dress from LoveShack for $50. I always suggest looking closely at fabric content when shopping for budget-priced designer collaborations. Items made with natural fibers may cost a bit more but they will wear better over time.

If you’re looking for some bonafide designer finds, check out Coltori boutique where you can save 20% off with the code DEALMOON20. The savings become extra-large on top of the euro-dollar savings. The Saint Laurent LE 61 is $662 from $995 US and a YSL canvas tote is $840 from $1600 US. There is also a Bottega Jodie bag that’s $1900 from $2800 US. I also spotted these Bottega Lido heels on Cettire for $975 from $1250 US, a mini-pouch is $1020 from $1390 US and a mini Jodie is $1310 from $1720.

My favorite find of the week was Manolo Blahnik shoes that were discounted to 60% off this week at Nordstrom. There are still plenty of good styles available. Suede BB heels are $266 from $665 and floral print heels are $280 from $700.  You can read the full post here. The Louboutin shoes mentioned in the post were pulled from the Saks sale but will be available again on June 10.

The Shopbop extra 25% off promotion ends Saturday night. Use the code JUNE25 at checkout to engage the savings. A mini dress from SEA is $255 from $365 and Rosie Assoulin ankle bracelets are  $24 from $60. You can see more of my favorites in the Shopbop post.

The MyTheresa sale started this week with discounts of up to 50% off. A Balmain tank is $276 and an Isabel Marant sweatshirt is $231 from $330. Here is the post from earlier this week. Balenciaga items didn’t convert over to the public sale.

The Stuart Weitzman sample sale is still going strong and all shoes and boots are under $200. Suede stretch boots are $170 from $575 and nude ankle-strap sandals are $150 from $400. Click over to the blog post for more details and finds.

The Net-A-Porter sale started for select VIP shoppers. It will be a little over a week until the sale goes public for all. This week we should start seeing some second markdowns begin. We wouldn’t be surprised if we saw some good Gucci items hit the sale racks.

Until next week… same time, same place?

I really dislike talking about politics but my voice can’t exist in a bubble that’s only comprised of Gucci shoes and Saint Laurent purses. Racism a topic as old as our nation and even after generations of dialogue and protests, there has not been enough change. It’s about justice. It’s a matter of humanity. We must do more and do better.

Everyone deserves equality and the same chance at the American Dream. That needs to be our collective reality. I can’t profess to know how to get there but moments of collective self-reflection and action spark change.

This week’s fashion sales were a little quite following the Memorial Weekend bonanza. If you’re looking for the perfect Zimmerman frock, the designer is offering 50% off on its own website. The selection is really perfect for a Zimm fan. Here is a halter dress that’s reduced to $320 from $640 and a dress with a bow is $325 from $650.

Over at Savannah’s, which is located in Australia, is hosting a “secret sale” where lots of designer shoes are discounted between 20% and 60% off. Manolo Skysan’s are $540 from $1100, Givenchy black pumps are $240 from $700,  and Christian Louboutin slingbacks are $407 from $815.

Over at Tessabit, Mad-Spy readers can receive an additional 10% off through this link with the code: MADISONAVENUE10X. Highlights include Chloe slingbacks for $270 from $620 US retail. A Balmain dress is $720 from $1450, a Rick Owens leather jacket is $740 from $1638, and Moncler sneakers are  $260 from $475. You can click here to read more details and to see what else we found.

It’s a good time to take another sweep through Italist. We found a Balmain blazer in pink for $850 from $2300 US retail. This Celine logo tee is $273 from $400+ US retail and a Celine sweatshirt is $350 from $515. A Balenciaga swing shirt is $578 from $757. More details are in the full blog post.

We also found the sale section updated at SSense. We found a Mansur Gavriel pouch for $340 from $600. This Off-White Binder Clip bag still feels classic and it’s $573 from $2100 and these Gucci sandals are $570 from $730. You can read more here.

Head over to Coltorti and save 20% off nearly everything on the site with the code DEALMOON20. The 20% off isn’t newsworthy in itself but it adds up to 40% to 50% off US retail and there are lots of great classic designer styles from which to shop. The small YSL LE 61 bag comes to $1145 from $2050 US retail. That’s nearly half-off and there are even more classic styles like YSL Vicky is $1347 from $2000 US retail.  This Fendi tote is $1300 from $2400 US retail and Bottega Veneta heels are $480 from $870 US retail. See, the price difference is really extreme.  The code works on sale merchandise too click here to read more.

This week, we can expect to see additional savings from Saks and MyTheresa. If we are lucky, we might also get a little access to the Net-a-Porter sale.

Until next week… same time, same place?
