I'm toying with the idea of going after work tonight. Yes, I'm feeling suicidal

 

[luckyme]

go, you need new clothes for your trip.

 

[decadentxangel]

well the pradasamplesale site has been up for a bit, but there probably are some appointments left. and its pretty easy to fake your way in anyway.

when I signed in, there was no space avaiable. How can I fake my way in?

LANVIN FANS......

it seems that barney's has struck some sort of deal with lanvin to sell it's stock....
tons of lanvin at the warehouse sale...
amazing stuff....and many things that were not carried by barney's...
many with pricetags in pounds and with tickets from the DOVER STREET MARKET!!!...

prices are still high...but seriously slashed...
what a nice surprise!!!...

Yeah...I saw some wonderful dresses and coats marked down from 3000s to 700s...too bad I couldn't get my mom to buy them...

i went to the warehouse sale as well. there was one measly pair of acne jeans marked down to 60$. imitation shorts etc. actually there jeans selection was pretty slim.

the womens floor was pretty crowded. lots of girls just changing in front of everyone else. kinda annoying as that meant that men were banned from mostly everywhere up there.

the mens shoes had the best selection i think.

i didnt buy anything.

are things going to get marked down more at the barneys warehouse sale?

 

[softgrey]

lucky for me...................

 

[Foxie-Pooh]

lol...I guess...btw she bought the same black DKNY skirt that you bought last week too ! When I saw the runway picture you posted I was like hey my mom was just thinking about buying the same skirt two weeks ago...and today she finally bought that skirt, along with a black Chanel J12, a grey dress from the Limited, a black draped top from Express and a black skinny jean from Forever 21 ...opps, hopefully she won't mind me divulging her secret on the world wide web

received a sealed card from Marni saying a maximum price reduction at hotel Prince Akasaka on 26

 

[Caffeine]

softgrey, did you see any size 36 Lanvin skirts? TIA

 

[softgrey]

mine is a 38 caffeine...and it was the only one like it...
you have to look through...everything is kind of scattered...
a lot of big sizes too...
there is a cashmere little checked one in brown with a velvet waistband that might me your size...it's nice but a bit to conservative for me-
could be good for you at work though...
gorgeous fabric and very flattering shape..

foxie-i can't believe your mom got the same skirt-how funny!..
curious about the grey dress she got now...

runner- a sample sale!...wow...marni hardly ever does that!

[decadentxangel]

any lanvin shoes???

 

[Caffeine]

any lanvin shoes???

Nope. No Lanvin shoes, or any decent shoes...
I did get a

3.1 skirt with lace insert on the bottom, and
a Rochas skirt

I might need to have a tailor to take it in a little, but it's not bad now. I'll try to take a picture later this week/weekend.

I just realized how many black skirts I already own But I never get enough

I'm also eyeing on a Lanvin skirt....it's $900+ now but I hope that ehy will be marked down later...I'll have to get it

Softgrey, do you know, or recall when they will/would mark the "red" items down based on your previous experience? And you are right, they have many Lanvin pieces...

And I'm waiting for the Rochas suits to show up if there are any in my size. I saw two size 38s...they are so beautiful......
