there were a lot of dresses up for grabs at the betsey johnson sample sale. more stock sale than anything. the question was whether you needed a party dress or not, because that's what most of the dresses were all about. there were few pieces appropriate for fall wear. there were mostly summer-y type dresses perfect for attending a wedding. i did see one customer try on one of the wedding gowns. prices were already marked down ($45 for day dresses, reduced from $60...i suspect prices will drop even more tomorrow). the accessories and shoes are a total pass. i did end up getting a checked dress, which i think i can still wear with a blazer if the weather continues to co-operate.
betsey johnson sample sale dress. (retail $300) sale $45after, i decided to check out the elie tahari sale. what a dis-aster. there was a mild queue to get in. all sizes of purses needed to be checked in. hmm...what else? ah, yes. no organization whatsoever into sizes or styles. and a somewhat ridiculous wait for a fitting room. some customers ended up waiting in line for nuth-ing...as someone started to shout out the closing time and announced that the cash register was soon closing. i could see and hear the frustration as customers who had waited >45 minutes in line listened to the employee making the announcement. i honestly thought some sort of lynching would soon break out. anyway, i didn't end up getting anything. if you need some work-type-clothing, then may-be it would be worth checking out the final days of the sale. they had already reduced the pricing on most items (eg. dresses are now $79, reduced from $99). but really, who's up for final day prada sale tomorrow?
