This week we’ve been a little obsessed with Hermes and started tolling vintage pieces. As happens when you shop online, I stumbled upon some other goodies. I found this Chanel coat that’s just $1150.
Below is a compilation of a few of my favorite sale things. I will be sure to update this post as I scroll uncover more impulse purchases.
If you’ve been staking something special in Net-A-Porter’s sale section, now would be the time to close out your cart. This is the last weekend of sale and the entire section will be removed on Tuesday, June 30.
The discounts are up to 80% off. Most items aren’t reduced to that extreme but other items include a promotional discount of an additional 20% off. Most items are low in stock and there aren’t a lot of size variables, That being said, there is still two months of Summer.
The Hermés sample sale, at Short Hills Mall, kicked off to a small number of invited guests, on Wednesday afternoon. The sale opens to the public Thursday morning and is expected to draw huge crowds.
Wednesday’s VIP invites were limited to about 100 shoppers who were admitted to the sale at 2pm. Once the sale opens to the public on Thursday morning, the crowd is guaranteed to swell. This particular Hermes sale will be run a little bit differently than prior East Coast Hermes sales. There will be no tickets issued. Each person will have to wait in line until it’s their turn to enter the sale space.
Today’s VIP shoppers say that the sale was very good. Discounts are 50% off most items. Men’s clothing is 60% off. There are several canvas beach bags ($1000)and canvas cosmetic cases in assorted bright colors and prints. The sale also contains beach towels ($290), throw pillows and blankets– “the thinner solid ones.” (We have some pictures here and will continue to add more as they are received.)
Shoppers will also report silk scarves, Maxi-Twillies ($167) and ties, hats and leather gloves for men and women, two-piece bathing suits and men’s swim trunks for $186. Ties are $98 and 90cm scarves are $208. As we initially reported, there are no jewelry, leather goods or belts.
In the shoe section, we are told that there is an abundance of men’s options. For women, there are many brown jumping boots ($1312) and Oran sandals. The best assortment is in size 38 and 38.5. The selection was smaller for the 37 and 37.5 options. There are lots of small shoe size options.
Orans can be found in ostrich, various colors of patent leather, two-tone, black leather with tiny logo studs and a few in orange/red and coral/gold. A pair in black leather with rhinestone trim is reduced to about $890 from $1775. There are mid-heel Oran sandals in multi-colors of suede, Epsom, Solaris, and blue/Bordeaux. There is also bright red/orange and pale blue lizard.
Shoppers also reported lots of Corfu-style sandals, which are flat with skinny criss-cross straps and CDC-style hardware. There are lots leaf sandals, some Rivage Jellies, and canvas wedges–printed and solid.
Among the housewares, our spies spotted a few blankets, which could be found behind the silks counter. Embroidered blankets were about $1400. There are no Avalon styles or H-logo prints. The overall housewares selection is described as “small.” Options include lacquered boxes and trays and a few porcelain styles.
In order to limit hoarding and reselling, there are some shopping limits. Only two shawls per customer and five scarves, five men’s ties, five women’s shoes and two men’s shoes– but only one Night 70, Night 90, Oasis, Oran, Legend and jumping styles
An employee for Taubman, which owns and manages the Short Hills Mall, said shoppers will be permitted to begin lining up outside the mall, near Legal Seafood, at 9am, Thursday morning. Cars will not be permitted onto the mall property until 8:30am. “You can sit in your car for a little bit, and make your way to the line at 8:50, and begin officially standing in line at 9am,” she said. There will be police patrolling the mall property at all times. Anyone who attempts to cue for the sale before the allotted time will be asked to leave the property and arrested if they don’t comply, she warned. “This isn’t the first big event we’ve had at the mall. There is an Apple store at the mall that does big launches all the time. We know how this is done,” said our advisor. The last East Coast Hermes sale was hosted at Americana Manhasset. Attendees reported waiting for over 8 hours and still not gaining admittance.
Keep in mind, purchases made at a Hermes sample sale do not come with boxes. All items are marked with the letter “s” symbolizing that they were purchased at a sale.

I’ve been crazy for Riccardo Tisci’s Burberry since his first designs hit Instagram about a year ago. I’m not the only one. Earlier this week, the company announced that its retail revenue in the first quarter was up 4% and news sent the stock soaring 14%.
Burberry stalkers know that none of the Tisci’s designs have been discounted anywhere. The few times I linked to a sale item it was immediately corrected to full price. The TB tee sporting the new Burberry logo is probably the most iconic item in the new era. As much as I love it, I’m not the type to spend nearly $400 on a cotton t-shirt —no matter how cool it is.
It is for this reason, I was so excited to spot “my” tee at about half-off on Shop375. Right now, you can save about 50% on a variety of hot Burberry items. The black Burberry tee is included in the site’s “Daily Deal” for $175 from $380 and the white version is $195. You can also use the code SHOP10 to save an additional 10% off.
I also ended up grabbing a Burberry Tisci skirt, which is commonly referred to as the chocolate pretzel logo skirt. The skinny pencil skirt hits the knee and is perfect for so many uses– lunch with friends, meetings at school, dinners out, strolls on Madison Avenue. There is no doubt that it will be in high rotation through the Fall season.
While you’re shopping, don’t miss the Balmain selection, which is included in the same sale grouping. The with the extra 10% off the iconic Balmain tank $240 from $350 and a blazer comes to about $1280 from $2000. Both are very good deals and worth buying at these prices.
As always, sizes and quantities are limited. Restocking isn’t always frequent. I suggest you grab what you see because you don’t know when it will come around again– if ever.
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale opens to the public on Friday at noon, which is just the excuse we needed to give our bikini lines a rest. We like to think of the promotion as a Fall pre-presale. It’s always a great opportunity to stock up on items that you will need as soon as temperatures start heading south or even some fun items you can enjoy now.
We noticed that some of our favorite items sold out right away when the sale opened to cardmembers. This Balmain lookalike blazer and this Tibi faux snakeskin skirt were gone in minutes. We strongly suggest you make a list of what you want and get ahead of the sale going live.
We sorted and browsed through the entire inventory from the women’s, kid’s, beauty and home sale sections. Below are some of our favorites items:
