We know it’s not even technically Summer but when it gets cold you will be happy for this post.
We were just alerted that Neiman Marcus is hosting an extra 25% off already reduced Moncler jackets, clothing and accessories. Final discounts range from 50% to 70% off. Most sizes are currently available in each style. You can click here to browse the full assortment or pick from our favorites below.
Saks Fifth Avenue is hosting a quicky flash sale where a segment of clothing is discounted 75% off. The catch, or the flash, is that this sale is only two days.
Some items aren’t discounted so highly reduced but they are still a great deal. Here is an Off-White tote that’s perfect for the beach and reduced to $360 from $520 and a Gucci backpack is $1000 from $1400.
This sale is only online and ends on Tuesday night. For now, it’s good fodder while we wait for Saks to draw its third markdown.
Luxury retail stores are feeling the pressure to offer the most competitive prices. In doing so, extra discounts promotions are being used to entice shoppers to ‘buy more stuff.’ Online at Barneys you can find lots of older merchandise discounted 75% off. The discounts and selection or as good, if not better, than any Warehouse sale.
The extra discounted merchandise is only available online but that didn’t stop us from taking a quick tour inside the store. We are sure glad we did. Over this way, we have some pictures of the remaining shoes and handbags. You. will notice that there are several new handbags additions to the sale section. We noticed a lot more Valentino styles and even some new Balenciaga styles.
In the shoe department, you will still a lot of Manolos, Louboutins, and Balenciaga shoes. Discounts range from 40% to 60% off. We were most surprised that Barneys added more Chanel shoes to its sale section too. You can click here to see pictures.
We are having too much fun shopping this sale. We can go on and on but then this post would never go live. We are going to leave it here and continue to fill the shopping cart. Wish us luck!
Listen, um read closely, because you’re not going to want to miss this. Net-A-Porter will start its second markdown Thursday morning. Prices will be reduced up to 70% off and many popular style bags and fashion are still in stock.
Among the bag selection, you can expect to find most styles discounted 40% to 50% off. Some items we’ve been watching include this XXS Balenciaga Bolide-style bag that’s already reduced by 50%. At 60% off it will come to just $740 from $1850. (That’s pretty close to sample sale prices.) This Balenciaga camera bag seems like a no-brainer if it’s in the $490-range.
The discounts on shoes will range from 40% to 70% off, with most styles getting the 60% markdown treatment. Among the most heavily reduced shoes are these Nicholas Kirkwood mules that are poised to go to 60% off and these Paul Andrew white slingbacks are just as good. These Bottega Veneta slingbacks are even more beautiful in person and we can see getting a lot of use out of these Tabitha Simmons suede sandals. There is also a huge amount of sneakers from designer to running.
Expect to find an infinite array of clothing discounted 70% off. There is still this cream colored Balmain tank left but it won’t last once it’s priced under $200 and this Balmain herringbone blazer is already in the checkout zone. Here is a black spaghetti strap Zimmerman dress that can be worn to a mariad of Summer events. The same can be said for this white crochet detailed dress. This Dundas dress has sold out at other places but it’s still here on NAP. Here is a Jacquemus dress that’s love at first sight. that is an excellent buy even now.
The new markdown won’t go live until Thursday morning but the best merchandise will go sell out fast. We suggest you pile up that cart and edit before dawn.
Nearly everything that will be on sale has already hit the markdown racks. The only holdout, until now, is Dior. Starting Thursday, most of our area stores will have reductions of 40% off on various Dior items. Dior boutiques are providing discounts of 50% off.
Most of the Dior sale selection is limited to shoes, some clothing and a scattering of miscellaneous accessories. Licensed departments (like the handbag departments in Bergdorfs, Bloomingdales, and Saks) don’t have any sale merchandise.
In anticipation of the big markdown, we headed to various stores to see exactly what will be included in the markdown. You can click here to see pictures. Some standout items include colorful canvas sneakers that will come to about $600 from $1000, toile print slingback pumps that come to about $600 from $990, pool sides are $534 from $890, and espadrilles with ankle laces are $414 from $690. (We have pictures here.)
If you are able to make it to a Dior boutique you might even be able to save more. A scattering of hoes clothing and accessories are reduced by 50%. Be sure not to miss the sunglasses because they are plentiful and — who can’t use an extra pair of sunglasses for summer. Pictures from inside the Soho boutique are a click away.
Another great resource for discounted Dior is Shop375. They have a variety of classic J’adore slingbacks, Diorama bags, and even great clothing items from the Dior x Kaws collaboration. Discounts range from 20% to 50% off retail — depending on the item. You can even use the code SHOP10 for an additiunal 10% off.
Department stores are a little skittish about releasing in the sale information on Dior. We have a few in-store sales associates you can contact. The Dior markdown officially starts on May 13.
Bergdorf: Dorian 862-216-5443
Saks (Boca): Jay 561-537-9468
The hugely popular Shopbop sale event kicked off today for VIPs. Shoppers can use the code SCORE19 and save an additional 25% off all sale items. The total discount can get as high as 80% depending on the item.
The sale ends Friday at midnight (PT). This is the best deal you can expect, outside of Shopbop’s friends and family sale. If you ask us, it seems like a good opportunity to celebrate the end of the school year and the beginning of Summer.
Neiman Marcus hasn’t officially presented a second markdown but has been hosting lots of promotional discount incentives. Right now, you can click over and save an additional 25% off sale items. The best part is that there is still a diverse assortment if you take the time to dig.
Once you hit the shoe department the hunting becomes a little more complicated. Sizes are limited among the most reduced style shoes. Nearly every size of this Saint Laurent suede sandal is still available and it’s now $450 from $1000. There are also lots of size options in this Chloe scalloped flat that’s now 50% off. You have to check out the heel on this Manolo that’s $460 from $825 and this Manolo d’Orsay is just $273 from $935 but only one size is available.
You might notice some items are much less reduced than others. This scattered discount assortment will provide a prolonged sale season. Watch closely if an item hasn’t hit the discount to your satisfaction. Last Call will begin on June 27. Until then, there will a series of additional markdown promotions spanning up to an additional 33% off.
Sale season started very early this season. Most every other local department store has already taken a second cut on prices. Saks Fifth Avenue was the only neighborhood holdout, well, until this morning.
Discounts on clothing are a little scattered. Most items are 60% off. At the store, we found lots of Moncler jackets reduced 50% off. You can click here to see pictures. A Moschino tee is $177 from $200, a Versace silk cardigan is $700 from $1550 and an Off-White sweatshirt is $250 from $550.
You can click over this way to see pictures of everything (or most everything) we saw at the store. Last season, Saks hardly had a second markdown. We are not sure what to expect concerning third price cuts. It appears as if Saks would like to schedule its own agenda but the competition to final markdowns is just too much pressure.
