Spring is in the air (or at least it should be) and we couldn’t be more excited to start planning for the warmer weather. New sandals, lightweight dresses and lots of rosé, of course. We aren’t quite ready to start pulling out the bikinis but long weekends will be here before you know it.
We’ve exclusively listed only the sample sales that we would personally consider attending. The post will continue to be updated throughout the month and remain just a click away in the right sidebar. Below is a list of what we believe to be April’s best sample sales. Feel free to leave feedback in the comments section so that everyone can benefit.
Equinox Sample Sale
These atheliesure sales have been getting a lot of attention but we never find the discounts that good during the initial days. We suggest hitting these sales during the final days, when the prices are slashed to rock bottom. This would be our game plan too for the upcoming Equinox sale. Expect to find brands ranging from Spiritual Gangster to Anthony Thomas Melillo, Nike and more.

Versace Sample Sale
Brace yourselves for Versace mania. The Italian fashion brand is hosting it’s first sample sale at 260 Fifth Ave and we can only imagine how wild this sale will become. As logomania heats up so has the gilded Versace print. As a matter of fact Donatella Versace was just at Bergdorf Goodman launching a collection of vintage prints. No word on the markdowns or what will be included in the sale but we will be sure to keep you posted.
