I stopped in yesterday and got some cute AR sweat shirts & hoodies ($42-$45). I stopped in again this morning and there wasn't much left for women. There are still some cute men's things left at 80% off. Unless your in the 'hood I wouldn't make the trip over. Aloha Rag sale is pretty picked over.

There wasn't a lot of common sizes left yesterday, I can't imagine what was left today. Too bad you couldn't find a pair you liked. But, at least, you got to see what it was like inside and slip on a few pairs. Thanks for the well wishes on my new shoes. I'll make sure to enjoy them at a special occasion... and one such event is coming up tomorrow! Have a great weekend! Judy – So glad that you were able to get inside and experience the sale!

I stopped by the sale today to check it out (1st time trying on Louboutins!) and was able to get in around 1pm (I count myself extremely lucky-I was not on the list). There were pretty much no more size 37s-39s left, the most abundant sizing are the 36s & below and 40s and above. I walked away bare handed, even a pair of mismatched pumps would still set you back $150. This is the first time I tried on Louboutins, I'd have to say they're too tight for my fat feet, so needless to say I won't be going to future sales. That being said, hope you enjoy your new shoes and happy weekend! Hi Sally,

You have to be on the list to get in. Just heard from my sources that the sale is still NOT open to the public. You have to be on the list to get in.

]]> Comment on SALE ALERT: Tod’s & Hogan Sample Sale by Occhi21 http://samplesally.com/accessories/handbags/sale-alert-tods-hogan-sample-sale/#comment-19457 Occhi21 Fri, 18 May 2012 17:42:57 +0000 http://samplesally.com/?p=23085#comment-19457 Went last night at 5:30pm, no line. If it had a line it def was not worth waiting. Hogan's sandals were $89, and all other Hogan's were $99. Tod's were $110 for sandals,$129 for all flats/sneakers, $149 for heels, and $229 for boots. The shoes are in section by sizes but they are so many in the wrong place I def suggest looking at all sections. The bag department was shut down bc they did not have a price list yet. I ended up going home with two pairs of shoes one pair of Hogan's sandals and one pair of Tod's flat. The styles are of course past season and I google my shoes and they are all from 2008 season but they are all the classic look.Dont expect to find the classic Tod's in black bc they were mainly in white. ManhattanMataHari of Madison Ave Spy wrote a very nice article about the sale. Went last night at 5:30pm, no line. If it had a line it def was not worth waiting.

I can't confirm if they've opened to the public. But according to a Racked reader (in comments), they've opened to the public. But, seriously, be prepared to stand in a long line if you plan to try today. Plus, they close early at 3pm. Hi guys! I can’t confirm if they’ve opened to the public.

Left with 3 pairs of $250, even work shoes and a pair of Gold Rolandos for $350. I must say, the "invite" only sale is a zoo and between the employees bringing their mob of friends ahead of everyone that was on line since 6am, it was very discouraging to wait. I got there at 7am didnt get upstairs till 11:30 due to all the line skipping. God forbid you'd say something, the guards will kick you off the line. I am sure that the employee friends are not regular customers either. Ridiculous! I could just imagine the madness if it's opened to the public. The invite only event was not pleasant at all!

Depending on what you're looking for, the only thing left were lots of funky styles and colors. Hi Hope – they did have 38s & 39s left (more 39s from what I remember).
