This is a huge weekend for retailers and your last chance to finalize your holiday shopping list. Retailers are only adding to your temptation by taking second markdowns. Bergdorf Goodman is the latest store to start promoting additional discounts.
Handbags are now 50% off, which is excellent except the online selection isn’t very good. A Givenchy Pandora is $1100 from $2300 and a Valentino fringy shoulder bag is $939 from $1900. The shoe collection, on the other hand, is excellent. The markdown is 50% off and the selection is top-notch. Manolo fringe boots are $900 from $1900 and Tom Ford sandals are $750 from $1500. Careful, some styles like Valentino Rockstuds are still only 30% off.
Lets sink our teeth, or wallets, into where we can find the deals. Clothing! That Dolce & Gabbana Je t’aims sweater is now $790 from $2000, a Marco de Vincenzo pleated dress is $929 from $2330 and a Donna Karan double-face cashmere coat is $1659 from $3900.
We suggest you pounce on this second markdown right away. It’s not often that Bergdorfs goes toe-to-toe with Barneys this early in the season. (Shoe pun intended.)
