    35 Reasons to Get to Century 21 Now

    It’s been ages since we’ve headed to the Century 21 flagship and figured it would be interesting to see what’s changed since the store was remodeled. We began our shopping trip with low expectations but were shocked to see that discount store was fully stocked with the most premier legendary designer treasures. We’re talking about the names you hardly ever find outside of boutiques any more.

    When was the last time you saw Prada and Hermes in a discount store? Exactly. On the Prada rack we found classic puffer jackets with fur collars for $980 from $1890, gingham long wool coats are $1749 from $3860 and leather moto jackets for $1649 from $3885. Take note, signs above the Prada merchandise states: C21 Guaranteed Authentic. Not Affiliated or Authorized Retailer of PRADA. (Pics in the jump.)

    The Lanvin section wasn’t any less spectacular. A ruffled top dress is $1759 from $5000 and a classic LBD is $979 from $2975. Other great finds include a long Gucci shearling coat for $3059 from $15,770, a classic Pucci coat with a fur collar that comes in assorted solid colors is $1059 from $4000, a classic Missoni sweater coat is $429 from $2575 and a Celine leather top is $670 from $2275.

    The Hermes silk blouse was not the best piece of fashion we found at C12 but it was the biggest shocker. The blouse is priced at $1499 from $2705 and a Hermes tee is $399 from $640. Both not worth the money but nonetheless surprising. The store is also well stocked with Oscar de la Renta stunners and great Proenza prints. You can check out pictures of all the aforementioned items along with a lot more with a clickty click.

    Upstairs on the 6th floor, the children’s department is also stocked with great fashion finds. There are ADD jackets for everyone from infants to the 14-16 set. A girls Missoni coat is $300 from $660, a Dolce & Gabbana dress is $119 from $324 and dressy Oscar de la Renta girl’s dresses are $101 from $235.

    Frankly, we haven’t been this excited by a discount shopping trip in a very long time. We suggest that all you Uptown girls head downtown before the tourists walk away with all of our home town goodies.

    Inside: Rent the Runway Sample Sale

    Today we went early this morning to check out the Rent the Runway sample sale. Don’t be mistaken, although this markdown event is being coined as a sample sale it much more resembles a designer garage sale. Samples are normally new or showroom used. The merchandise from RTR is very much well used and some if it is very expensive considering its condition.

    When you are in the habit of shopping great markdowns it’s hard to put a number value on pre-worn merchandise. Should it be priced at 70% off, 80% off, 90% off? You will have to be the judge.

    Inside the sale you will find a huge variety of dresses and gowns. The best of the bunch was a shift from Yigal Azrouel marked $351 from $995. Priced better is a Preen dress for $281 from $2225 but it did seem to have a dusting of wear. An MSMG summer dress is $191 from $995 and a Clover Canyon classic print is $72 from $265. (Pics inside here.)

    The most popular dresses are the Herve Leger dresses, which range  from $87 to $500. The red $87 variety has a neckline so plunging that it should come with a fake boob option and another blue ombre variety for $105 has an off-the-shoulder neckline that was stretched out on all of them. Other Herve options include a black classic with a racer back for $403, a blueberry stripy style for $196 and an aqua style with a deep scalloped plunging neckline for $225.

    The sale also includes a small assortment of evening bags and jewelry. The discounts for these are about 70% off. Oscar de la Renta earrings were $83 from about $300 and a damaged Kate Spade Mr. & Mrs. clutch is $85 from about $400.

    3.1 Phillip Lim Sample Sale

    Starting tomorrow, Philip Lim is hosting a sample sale where past season’s clothing, shoes and accessories are discounted up to 70% off. Today, we spied a sneak peak at the sale and were excited by the assortment of fashion opportunities.

    The most popular items are the handbags, of course. Prices range from $200 for a small Pashli to $450 for a large Ryder satchel. We suggest grabbing one of the exotic clutches, which is an amazing deal at just $150. Shoes may even be more attractive, priced at just $100 a pair.

    The clothing is mostly from last winter and not priced quite as attractively as the bags and shoes. Dresses are range from $150 to %400. The least expensive styles are just shirt dresses and the more pricey styles are  full sequin party dresses. Most coats and jackets are about $500.

    The sale runs through Saturday but we suggest you attempt to shop before then. We have a feeling that most of the good stuff will not stick around for long.
