.how to get the deals – shopping the sales.

this has definitely been requested and I’m so excited to share with you guys! 

I like nice brands and I like expensive things .. but I don’t so much like the designer prices 🙂 

so .. here’s a breakdown of which sites I use to shop GREAT sales! now keep in mind most things aren’t going to be ‘super cheap’ on the sales depending on how high end the designer brand is, but you can definitely get some significant amounts of money off the original price 🙂

I use sites like Gilt, HauteLook and Rue La La to find brands that are sold at Nordstrom, Barneys, and Neiman Marcus for a good discount. I have bought products from each site and they shipped fast and I have loved what I have purchased from them. I got my Yosi Samra pink flats, Marc Jacobs watch, Kendra Scott jewelry and many other great brands from these online websites. They’re flash sale sites, so they have a limited amount of the product and they only last for a couple of days or until sold out. Brands like Wildfox Couture, Kate Spade, Rebecca Minkoff, Yosi Samra, Burberry, Prada, Ray Ban, Joe’s Jeans and many others can be found on these sites as well. 🙂 

So if you’re wanting deals … DEFINITELY check out Gilt, HauteLook and Rue La La 

J.Crew is a popular shop and their clothing can be higher priced than most budgets allow, but I always look for when they offer 30% off or more. (they seriously do this often!) subscribe to their email list so you don’t miss out! they usually offer extra discounts off their sale too! I never buy full price, I always wait until I see at least the 30% off 😉 .. shop J.Crew Factory too for even better deals on J.Crew style

Rebecca Minkoff and Kate Spade have flash sales pretty regularly 🙂 subscribe to their email lists too for insider details on these sales! my advice would be to subscribe to emails for any and all sites that you love shopping at (if you don’t do this already) because they’ll let you know when sales are happening!! 

another site that is great for deals is 6pm 🙂  for example here’s Kate Spade on sale! 

you don’t have to pay full price to get something cute and designer 

more sites I love for deals are Nordstrom, Piperlime and Shopbop (high end designer) -shop the sale sections here! I’ve even been able to score some fun things at Nordstrom Rack 
Neiman Marcus Last Call is another site that offers designer products for a deep discount (the only thing with sites like this, is they have gone on sale a bunch so sizes choices are slim – but if you’re the lucky one to find something you love in your size then it was worth the wait!) 
I also really love The Outnet .. this site is from Net A Porter, which has high end designers, The Outnet shares these designers’ sales and it’s amazing – up to 70% off!  

Overall my advice is shop around .. if there is a designer item you’re loving and have had your eye on for a while, google it or check sites that carry that designer and see which site offers the best price .. or keep stalking the sites until it goes on sale 😉 also subscribe to emails or get the apps for brands and sites that you love – they will let you know when sales are happening!
