    Manolo First Summer Markdown

    The Manolo Blahnik’s boutique sale is happily on its way. The savings are currently 30% off but in just days the markdown will go to will be 50%.

    As far as markdowns go, the department stores are serving up better discounts. Just don’t expect to find any of the more interesting styles in Bergodorf or Saks.

    Towards the end of the month, Manlolo adds a third “sticker” markdown where prices start at just $250. You can see our past overage of Manolo’s sticker sales here.  We always prefer the boutique final markdown to the sample sale– at least you get a box with your shoes!

    Kirna Zabete Second Markdown

    By ManhattanMataHari

    The fabulously well curated Soho boutique, Kirna Zabete, is now having second markdown on t summer clothing, shoes and accessories. This means all the most coveted pieces from our favorite designers like, Lanvin, Proenza Schouler, Giambattista Valli and Givenchy are included along with cool indie labels are now up to 60% off.

    For the unfamiliar, a quick browse of their website sale should get you out the door and into your taxi. We found this Lanvin jersey structured shoulder dress marked down to $332.50 and a printed Erdem panel dress is $397.50. There are also lots of nice separates to choose from like this $375 Prabal Gurung side-draped skirt. Our favorite items are by designer, Duro Olowe. The below photographed dress is $745 from $1400.

    While there are a lot of dresses and separates online you should keep in mind that all clearance purchases are final sale. It may be safer for online shoppers to opt for stylish accessories. We love the $259 Giambattista Valli enamel panther bracelets and Lanvin flower ribbon necklaces for about $340.

    Whatever you do, don’t miss the shoe selection, which is totally fierce. Pierre Hardy striped wedges are $259, while Lanvin’s ballet wedges are just under $500 and Nicholas Kirkwood flowers pumps are now $347.50.

    If you’re not worried about missing out on particular item you may want to wait for Kirna’s final markdown, which usually ranges in the 70% off neighborhood. After all, product stalking is our favorite pastime.

    Madison Markdowns Round II

    By ManhattanMataHari

    Sale season along Madison Avenue is still going strong and some boutiques have even added additional markdowns. Below are some highlights to help you through the July 4th holiday shopping weekend.
    Happy Independence Day!

    Akris
    If you head straight downstairs, you ill find a sale section filled with women’s dresses and separates all for 60% off. We were most impressed with the selection of fashionable colorful blazers. All available sizes are out on the sales floor. So you should head to Akris sooner rather than later for the best selection.
    Bruno: 212-717-1170

    Chanel
    The temporary shop on Madison Avenue doesn’t currently have air-conditioning but they do have a good selection of sales shoes, which are discounted  40%. There are several sandal and pump styles available with the discount but none of the classic ballet flats are included. If you’re hoping to snag a small accessory or handbags on sale, you’re out of luck here. All the discounted bags were sold out on the first day of the sale.
    John: 212-535-5505

    Derek Lam
    While the sales area at the back of the store has a few racks of discounted ready-to-wear, we were majorly distracted by the plentiful selection handbags and shoes which are also heavily discounted to 60% off retail. The lightweight oversized knits are especially tempting at under $200.
    Atsuko: 212-493-4454

    Jimmy Choo
    While sizes and selection are dwindling, the upstairs part of the boutique has two full walls of summer sandals, heels and flats priced at 50% off. There are also a couple of boot styles available at the sale price. Our favorite sale shoes are the wedges, which now run between $200 and $350 depending on style.

    J. Mendel
    The exclusive furrier does not have any of their luxurious fur coats included in their 40% to 60% off sale. Instead, you can score some unique and beautiful fur shrugs and caplets for 60% off the $3900 retail prices. Head upstairs for the sale section, and be sure to check out some of the exquisitely tailored dresses too.
    Angellique: 212-832-5830

    Oscar de la Renta
    While the sales racks are not marked, a helpful sales associates will gladly help you sort through ladylike dresses, separates, shoes and costume jewelry that are now 40% off. If you don’t see your size you you can likely have a your sized pulled from the stock room. This sale will likely go through the end of the month and we would expect an additional markdown shortly.
    Nancie: 212-288-5810

    Roberto Cavalli
    All merchandise upstairs is now 60% off retail, including lots of his famous silk printed dresses perfect for a weekend in the Hamptons. There are also some lovely evening gowns, formal dresses included and casual summer dresses included in the sale.
