By: Jacqueline Munro In classic 260 fashion, the Aquazzura sample sale prices are way too high. Prices start at $180 and range all the way up to $485. And while $180 doesn’t sound terrible, the majority of the shoes were between $220 and $275. In my opinion that is just absurd. This is a sample sale people!?? I mean, has that word completely lost its meaning? Despite the disappointing prices…
Chuckies Moving Sale – Kind of a Fraud
The Chuckies ‘moving’ sale is what we like to call FALSE ADVERTISING. First of all, they hosted a ‘liquidation’ sale in July, which wasn’t liquidation since they are still very much in business. And now they advertise this moving sale with items up to 90% off. We get to the sale and there are like two and a half items at 90% off retail, and everything else is barely 50%…

This Might Be the Best Prive Sample Sale Yet
I generally have a lukewarm feeling about the Prive sample sales, which take place at Chelsea Market. Most of the time, the atmosphere is great, the place is well lit, the staff nice. The pricing is not the cheapest but it’s not horrible either, and brands are contemporary to high-end. Imagine how excited I was today when I walked into the sale to find 2 racks of Versace hoodies and…

You Literally Need To Be At the Edie Parker Sample Sale Right Now
By: Riva Neumann The Edie Parker sample sale had me super excited since these clutches and bags are so adorable and literally everyone I know has one. The sample sale has so many pieces and the prices are pretty good. Clutches range from $300-$500. They had initial ones in black and gold, some really cute pattered ones and some fun sayings (my personal favorite being “QUEEN”. Other merchandise included napkins for…

Eberjey and La Ligne Sample Sale Literally the Same as the Last One
By: Riva Neumann The Eberjey and La Ligne Sample Sales looked very familiar when I walked into 260 sample sale. I then realized I had seen almost everything at the last sample sale they had. It seems like their sample sale inventory just takes a trip to the store for a week and then goes back into storage, just waiting for the next one. Prices are good, like $22 for a…

The Kooples Sample Sale Discounts OK but Not Great
By: Riva Neumann The Kooples Sample Sale was really just an average 260 sample sale with discounts that were not as good. Though they had a good amount of sizes available in pretty much every style, I was disappointed by the discounts and how expensive everything was. $45 for a T-shirt is ridiculous and a dress that retails for $275 sold for $115 is good but could be better. I was…

FAMOUS PEARL SHOES AT THE NICHOLAS KIRKWOOD SAMPLE SALE
If you love the boots with pearl heels as much as we do, you’ll be delighted to hear that we found many of them at the Nicholas Kirkwood sample sale. They are called Casatis BTW. The sale was set up in a boutique shop in Chelsea – staff was sweet (but exhausted), setup was beautiful. The organization of shoes was by size and then style. Current items sold for 75-85%…

The Bonpoint Sample Sale is NOT on Point
By: Jacqueline Munro After attending the Bonpoint sample sale today I left feeling amazed… Amazed by the fact that people are actually willing to pay that much money for baby clothes that will fit for about a month during which they will be covered in poop, pee, and barf! But hey, who doesn’t want to dress their infant in a multi-hundred dollar onesie……….. For such expensive baby/children’s clothes, I would…

I’m saying “Boooo” to the Jimmy Choo Sample Sale
By: Jacqueline Munro Overall I was not impressed by the Jimmy Choo sample sale. The sale is taking place at 123 West 18th St. in the Metropolitan Pavilion. If you’re having trouble finding it, just look for the insanely long line of people standing on the sidewalk. At this sale there were TONS of shoes; I was shocked by the amount of merchandise when I walked in. All of the…

The Rebecca Minkoff Sample Sale has Bags Galore
By: Jacqueline Munro The Rebecca Minkoff sample sale is currently taking place at 260 sample sale’s 5th avenue location. Personally, I’m not a Rebecca Minkoff fan, and this sale is always super hectic. So I’d advise you all to check out their online sale, which is currently offering up to 75% off retail prices, before succumbing to the misery of 260. At the Rebecca Minkoff sample sale, there is a…
