VIDEO: Delicate Underthings & More at the Eberjey Sample Sale

For two days, the Eberjey sample sale is taking place on East 34th Street.  I love lingerie.  Like many women I just can’t get enough.  Since I’m a big fan of the label, this is one sale I try not to miss.  I wasn’t disappointed.  You’ll find signature French briefs and lots of [...]

Project No. 8 End-of-Season Sale… Limited Selection of Stuff

The sale this time around at Project No. 8 was not as good as the one back in August (when we shot video).  I came into the boutique before they closed and was disappointed to find just several racks of clothing and a few bins on the floor (contained wool short scarves at $40).  [...]

Guest Post: Rachel Comey One-Day Sale

The Rachel Comey one-day sale is in full swing this afternoon… Sample Sale Diva (who has clearly shown her devotion to sample sale shopping) showed up shortly after they opened the doors at Noon.  The indie designer’s goods aren’t really her style.
