Elbowing our way through sample sales so you don't have to...
The Scoop Warehouse Sale goes for another couple of weeks, giving us plenty of time to check it out. Fashionable Femme Jen stopped in over the weekend. She reports on a pretty good selection of high-end designer goods, except for the handbags…
“A Sunday afternoon stroll in Soho brought me towards the Scoop Warehouse sale. Unlike its sister store in the Meatpacking District, this Scoop store seems to have a decent designer sale selection. Here’s a snippet of the women’s offerings.
Here’s our chance to shop for a great cause! Just today (Friday), the Metropolitan Pavilion has opened its doors for a charity sample sale (Fashion For Sandy Relief), which will benefit the recovery efforts from Hurricane Sandy. I didn’t have much time this morning, but I did make a quick stop during the preview before they opened the doors to the public. Inside, you’ll find all sorts of apparel and accessories (includes handbags & shoes) at 60% off retail.
Through the weekend, you can shop for a cause at the Housing Works thrift shop in Chelsea where you’ll find 250 designer brands sold at charitable prices. Last night, we attended the benefit reception at the Altman Building. Despite the storm, Fashion for Action’s co-chair Patricia Clarkson and other celebs turned out to give their support. We shot video of the event, which we’ll post later today…
In the meantime, Fashionable Femme Jen was on hand to give us the lowdown on the shopping:
Snow didn’t stop stylists, celebrities and shoppers from turning out for tonight’s Fashion for Action charity fundraiser and sale preview event. Shoppers sip on cocktails and munch on hors d’oeuvres while browsing discounted designer items. Money raised will go to help New Yorkers living with AIDS. As an added bonus, 20% of the proceeds will benefit those affected by Hurricane Sandy.
The online version of the Barneys Warehouse Sale is now over and shoppers will have to make their way to West 17th Street in Chelsea where the legendary event started this morning and will go through Labor Day. Many of us have been wondering about selection and markdowns. Like most women, the first place I always check out at this sale is the shoe department.
Fashion-forward retailer, Intermix, is making its winter sale more attractive by offering an extra 50-percent off the sale price. But as fellow shopper, Laura, found out, the appalling service is killing the shopping experience. Here’s what she had to say about her experience at the Madison Avenue boutique:
When I got word Intermix was marking down their sale items another 50% off the sale price, I headed over to the uptown outpost (1003 Madison at 77th Street) to check out what designer goods they had on sale. The prices were excellent but my experience was mauled by some pretty atrocious customer service.
Truckloads of shoes, booties and boots can be had at the Shoe-Inn warehouse sale which kicked off this morning inside Gotham Hall in Midtown. There was no line and the massive space was fairly calm.
Word is…
