I managed to make it to the sale at the tail end of the day with just 10 minutes to spare I swung by the sale in a whirlwind. Maybe I didn’t catch everything but from what I did see, there were bargains aplenty for those in the market for shoes or a new handbag. Since photos weren’t really allowed at the sale, I snuck a few shots when the opportunity arose! For large bags I spotted plenty of studded and patent varieties for $100 a pop or 2 for $175. for smaller bags there were several boxes of assorted varieties for $50 a pop or 2 for $75. I spotted some cute metallic ruffled clutch varieties. For smaller accessories patent leather wristlets were $25 each or 2 for $40 while studded bracelets were $10 a pop. Some other small leather goods were $40 a pop and 2 for $75, studded coin purses were $50 and the prices topped out at $150 or 2 for $250 for the Garbo and Kan-Kan wallet.
When it comes to shoes there were plenty of options. I noticed some studded canvas espadrilles as I walked in for around $18 a pop. If you are a size 37 however, it’s your lucky day as samples were marked at $50 a pop or 2 for $75! If you are not a 37 though fret not as they have other styles including many a sexy studded pump in a full size range from 36-40. Shoes were most plentiful in between sizes 36-38. Unfortunately I have size 35 feet, or else I would definitely have left the sale with some shoes. For stock shoes prices hovered from $75 to $225 for knee high boots with most in the $125-175 category.
While I didn’t have a chance to check out the backroom at the sale where most of the stock purses were kept, according to Be and D’s tweets The Donnington bag down to $575 from $1325.
PS Watch out for the adorable curly haired white & beige puppy at the sale that will steal your heart!

It looks like these high end brands trying to sell their own counterfeit by simply put "sample sale" for it. Looks cheap.
