    Stylist’s Shoe Sale

    We are loving this:

    The ShoeStylista — a shoe stylist, obviously– sent fashionista an email promoting a private sale of Manolos and Louboutins at her apartment. We are sure that she has been overwhelmed with email requests because the link is also on Racked.com .

    We emailed and are waiting to hear back. Let us know if you get a crack at the shoe sale. ShoeStylista, next time you want to unload your inventory please let us know first!

    Details from fashionista are below.
    To: tips@fashionista.com
    From: shoestylista@gmail.com

    Hi Britt & Natalie,

    I’m a freelance stylist looking to rid of about twenty pairs of shoes. They’re in mint condition, straight from this season’s runways and presentations. There are custom Manolo sandals and booties and Louboutin styles include the Peniche, Miss Golf, Defil, Lapino ankle booties and Rolandos. They range in size from 37.5 to 41.5 and in price from $250 to $375 with the over-the-knee black Manolo boots going for $500.

    I’m doing an open to the public sale at my apartment and was wondering if you know anyone who might be interested. They can email me for more information/the address.

    Thanks!

    Hermes Sale Update

    A Mad-Spy reader writes:

    I stopped in today and there is the normal scarves and ties. Nothing great in shoes, some belts, lots of leather goods (bags included), canvas garden party bags in small sizes only. Plus the normal clothing racks that no one is touching, some of the things are the same as last sale. Shoe prices were higher than last time but bag prices were lower.

    Racked.com reviewed the first day of the sale and said that the line was anemic compared to prior sales (just 40 mins). Even big spending Hermes fans are keeping their hands in their pockets this season.

    The sale ends Saturday, so we are thinking that the line should be pretty lean tomorrow about 3pm. Let us know if we’re right!

    Bloomingdales and Saks Updates

    A Mad-Spy reader writes us that the Bloomingdales sale is better than we were told:

    “It’s actually for every $100 you get $25 off your overall purchase. Plus 20% off almost anything on the second floor and 40% off already reduced merch. Just an FYI I was there last night!”

    Another fan scouted Saks today and says:

    I got a great free mani pedi but there’s nothing on sale.

    Bloomingdales “Private Sale”

    Bloomingdales is hosting a “private sale” from March 31st to April 2nd. We have no idea why the sale is being called private because the incentive isn’t even great. For every $100 you spend you get a $15 gift card. Presale started today.

    The difference between the Saks gift card incentive and Bloomingdales is that Bloomies gives you the gift card for big designer names like Chanel. Lets see how much longer that lasts. Good incentives never last long.

    Saks EGC

    Saks is really pushing these electronic gift cards. (The last one was March 4th.) Too bad the gift amounts keep going down and the restriction list keeps getting longer. The one day event is Thursday, March 26 and coincides with triple points. Nothing Chanel-Louboutin-Prada-like is included.

    The levels are below but we think you’re better off waiting to make your purchase during the Saks Friends and Family sale, which is scheduled for April 30th to May 2nd.

    Electronic Gift Card Values

    Spend some… Get some…
    $250 to $499… $25
    $500 to $999… $50
    $1000 to $1999… $100
    $2000 to $2999… $300
    $3000+ … $450

    Hermes Sample Sale

    It’s that time of year again…

    Hermes Sample Sale
    When: 3/25/09-3/28/09 Wed-Sat 10am-6pm Thur until 8pm
    Where:: The Metropolitan Pavilion 123 West 18th Street (btwn 6th & 7th ave)

    Past experience has told us that the lines are long. Very long. The best merchandise is the silk ties and scarves. Do not expect to find Birkin Bags, Kelly Bags, or any of the leather “must haves.” Past sales have included many canvas bag styles but nothing worth waiting on a three hour line.
