"To give is divine"? That's just silly talk.
YOU deserve a treat today. Everyday, actually. But sometimes our busy social schedules just don't let us get to where we want to go and sometimes, the usual suspects just don't have that thrill we are looking for.
What to do, what to do?
My current faves for a quick fix, thrill of the chase, fabu deal:
- Gilt - sales usually start 12PM EST and inventory sells fast. Invite only, ask and ye shall receive.
- Ideeli.com - one or two key items every few days. Definitely hit or miss.
- TopButton - at some point, you will find what you are looking for. Incredibly comprehensive list of sample/warehouse sales.
Spend people, spend.
Cheap and Evil fashionistas are ready to do battle in scorching temps for the best of couture at Barney's Warehouse Sale in NYC 14 August - 1 September. The available goods will make any girl rationalize yet another Carolina Herrera gown - it's a given your next black tie will be with the same crowd and repeats are no-no for any self-respecting C&E. And, it's the perfect time to practice your best C&E behavior: "Excuse me, that jacket is a size 2 and you can't get your arm in it. May I have it please?" "You are just swimming in that Marc Jacobs trench. Why don't you go snack on your daily carrot stick while I hold on to it for you."
Fight for the goods, ladies, take no hostages. Endure.
