Amidst all the heavy markdowns, Neiman Marcus is offering customers a great reason to shop the new collections. Neiman Marcus is offering a promotion where you can save immediately on the purchases you’re already making. You can save $50 off your purchase of $200 or $100 off a $400 purchase. The promotion is only online and you can use the code DECSAVE at checkout to engage the savings.

There are many designer exclusions but we found a lot of great items where you can save big. We are so exited to receive these Illesteva mired cat eye-glasses before heading out for our New Years vacation. Speaking of New Years, this Elizabeth and James sequined v-neck shift dress will work perfectly regardless of where you make your midnight toast.

There is no better reason to forgo the black-tie party and enjoy the fireworks while taking a jog though Central Park. You won’t miss out on any of the glitter and festivity with these New Balance black and gold glitter sneakers.

It so much fun to shop at Neiman Marcus where you can save even when items are not on sale? Don’t hesitate, the promotion only runs through December 27.

Black Friday is for the amateurs. Real shoppers sharpen elbows for the day after Christmas. It’s the time of year where you can still find a rather good selection of merchandise that’s highly discounted. Over the course of the week you’ll also find great opportunities to pounce on hard-to-find items that may get returned.

Below are some of our favorite post-Christmas shopping destinations. Share your favorites in the comment section below:

1. Saks Fifth Avenue
Saks is enticing shoppers with discounts for a total savings of up to 70% off. We suggest you get there when the store opens because when the clock strikes noon the additional savings end. Online shoppers can begin shopping the extra discounts from now through midnight Monday.  Givenchy high Shark Lock boots in nude are reduced to $526 from $1200, Balmain ankle-high boots with a chain are $760 from $1800 and Giuseppe Zanetti studded booties are $540 from $1300.

2. Barneys New York
Barneys still has better markdown opportunities than their competitors. Shortly, the store will begin to lose its competitive edge as other stores reduce accessories and shoes past 60%. The biggest Barneys advantage is their fashion lusty inventory. As an added incentive, our New York favorite is offering an additional 10% off sale prices, which brings the final discount to about 65% off.  A Saint Laurent ruffled and tulle dress is $890 from $2500, a blazer from The Row comes to $1500 from $4100, Acne ankle boots are just $290 from $800 and a Frame jeans are $80 from $230.

3. Net-a-Porter
Luxury e-tailer, Net-a-Porter, already started their second markdown and some items are reduced up to 70% off. Post Christmas, you will notice that a lot more merchandise  reduced to that 70% off mark. Michael Kors ‘candies’ are  $128 from $425, Tabitha Simmons suede high heel loafers are $218 from $725 and a lace-up Balmain dress is $1000 from $3500.

5. Manolo Blahnik
Manolo Blahnik usually starts their first markdown immediately after New Years. The discount is normally 33% off but if you can wait three weeks, prices get slashed to 50%. Then, right when you think your winter blues can’t get any worse, Manolo starts their February clearance sale where shoes are discounted up to 75% off.

5. Ralph Lauren
When Ralph Lauren slashes over 70% off we’ve been known to raid the Rhinelander Mansion for cashmere sweaters for loved ones and ourselves. The best part is that most of the leftover men’s stock is a size XS, which is just perfect for you. Just be careful, prices in the store don’t always match up online. So you might be better off just staying at home and shopping online.  Right now, online shoppers can save an additional 30% off already reduced merchandise.

Make. It. Stop.

The holiday season has peaked, plateaued, spun out of control, landed on the sun and … died. We get it and we are done. No more attitudes. Enough demands. It’s time to turn away, throw your arms akimbo and demand the focus be put on you.

We are thinking spa days, facial masks and exuberant indulgences that warm your own heart. Here are a few self-gift ideas to help you recover from the madness. After all,  if you’re not happy … nobody is happy.

1. Grab a bottle of Perrier-Jouët and set it on ice in this ultra chic Resin Champagne Bucket ($215)

2. Get away, warm up and burn calories at a Infrared Sauna Session ($49 Gilt City)

3. Just get the damn bag already — Gucci Dionysus bag with blooms ($1690)

4. While you’re at it, get the shoes too– Gucci Princetown slippers ($595)

5. Take yourself for a much needed massage at the The Sisley- Paris Spa (50-minutes $169 Gilt City)

6. Go for a another piercing and a mini diamond hoop from Maria Tash ($1200)

7. Dealing with in-laws? Hide behind these Miu Miu cat-eye frames ($390)

8. The glasses happen to match perfectly with this Bottega Veneta velvet bag ($1800)

9. Take a 100-dollar bill and light it on fire in the form of  Cire Trudon’s Balmoral candle ($95 sold out everywhere but Saks)

10. Vitalize your skin with with a Hydra Therapy face treatment masks from Erno Laszio ($80)

The holiday shopping season is quickly coming to a crescendo. Online shopping has been complicated by the fact that Christmas starts on Sunday. Those waiting until the very last minute will have to use a messenger or pay for Saturday delivery. The hours to take advantage of shipping is ticking away quickly.

As a special note, Uber Rush has been a life-changer. We usually pay between $6 and $12 to have packages picked up and hand delivered throughout much of the city. Many stores and boutiques though out the city also offer messenger services. Prices tend to range from $15 to $30. Some stores will wave the fee for expensive purchases.
