The sale selections at our local haunts are getting pretty dismal but overseas stores are much better stocked and the discounts are starting to get competitive. Farfetch started a promotion today where sale merchandise is discounted an extra 20%. Use the code 20FAR to engage the additional discount.
The situation is such that many designer items are not included in the sale. Another blip we've noticed is that some of the stores that sell on Farfetch are inflating retail prices. To top it all off, prices seem to switch way too frequently to confidently post prices.
Frankly, the Farfetch experience isn't supporting a lot of confidence. It's absolutely worth checking but maybe for items that you have previously been stalking....
A lot of our local stores are completing sale season but that the world is big. Sale season ain't over just yet! Coltorti is a multi-brand store with several boutiques along the Eastern coast of Italy and they are offering an extra 25% off Spring and Summer merchandise with the code DEALMOON25.
Some of the more interesting purchases include items from this past winter season. This woman's Moose Knuckles puffer comes to $233 from about $600, a Mr. & Mrs. Italy parka is $670 from $1040 and this Woolrich parka with a fur hood is $486 from $1100. Okay, maybe we are getting ahead of ourselves-- it's still August.
It's hard to believe it we are already in the depths of mid-August. Sale season has never gone this long and it's really beginning to come to an end. On the bright side, that will give us some time to point our attention focused on soaking in the last days of Summer. I really try to use this time to direct my attention towards the kids and create memories that will withstand a decade of time.
In shopping news, the end-of-season sales are nearly all over. Net-A-Porter will close out their sale section on Monday. There won't be any additional markdowns or promotions. If there is anything you've been stalking, now would be the time to pull the trigger.
LuisaViaRoma is hosting an anniversary sale were the newest fall collection is reduced 20% off. No code is needed. The discount is automatically applied once items are placed in your cart.
If you're not averse to full price, the Gucci selection of ready-to-wear and accessories is really great. There are even home accessories, which even includes wallpaper that can be beautifully framed.
We personally love shopping at LVR. Purchases always come incredibly fast and beautifully packaged. It's *almost* as good as going to Florance and shopping in person. (Who are we kidding!)
Intermix started a flash sale that will save you a selection of priced merchandise. The sale isn't slated to start until Thursday but you can use this "VIP link" to access the savings now.
This sale will open to the public on Thursday and be done after one day. The discounts aren't as good as the sale-on-sale promotions but, at this point, the assortment of good options is plentiful.
A sample sale consisting of discounted beauty products might not yield enough savings to justify a journey. Give us beauty discounts just a few clicks away and we are on it. Right now you can save up to 50% off a great assortment of luxury beauty items from Sephora.
If you've been curious about the Amika hairdryer, this would be a good time to give it a "spin." It's currently reduced to $180 from $300. Some people say it's better than the Dyson. Here is the curl set for $150 from $250.
The sale section is pretty well-stocked at the moment and there are no lines to check out. (Ha-ha) It's no doubt that this is an ideal way to shop at Sephora (even if it's not on sale)....
At this late date, it's possible that current markdowns are orthogonal to COVID. After all, it's August and retailers must wave their Summer merchandise good-bye. The end-of-season discounts at Saks Fifth Avenue are rather good shouldn't go overlooked.
The novelty of discount stores and flash sales has waned over the course of Corona. It's a new era in shopping and the newly launched concept of HauteFind is ushering in a new concept that's both exciting and deal worthy.
HauteFind is fully stocked with unbelievable authentic designer deals from Valentino, Anya Hindmarch Stuart Weitzman, and more. The site works on a weekly rotation of markdowns. New heavily discounted designer merchandise is added every Sunday and each following week the reductions increase.
The kicker is that sizes and quantities are limited. The deals start out very good and waiting can mean a missed opportunity or increased savings. It's your call but nail-biting is unseemly.
Let's take a closer look. Over here is a gorgeous Valentino Rockstud tote that is perfect for work and is reduced all the way down to $686 from nearly $2500. This Valentino Rockstud crossbody camera bag is currently $291 from $895. We can't even believe they lasted to this markdown!
The site is fully stocked with great items for men too. Don't miss the large assortment of Valentino sneakers and men's bags. Actually, the bags are perfect for anyone. Here is a camo backpack for $551 from $2000 and this pouch is $215 from $775. Both make very impressive gifts too.
Everything for sale on HauteFind completely authentic and brand authorized. Just a warning, the site is legitimately a discount lover's find. Once you get started shopping it might become addicting.
