Online Deal: C&T Costello Tagliapietra

Costello Tagliapietra is one of our favorite designer duos, so you can imagine my excitement when I discovered over a dozen of their dresses for under $100 at barneyswarehouse.com.

C&T Costello Tagliapietra 

Gathered front cross dress $79, Cowl back gathered waist dress $79, Sleeveless crossover front dress $69, Iris dress $69

What a deal!  These sophisticated dresses usually retail for almost $300.  I love these dresses because they're effortlessly elegant and could easily transition from day to night.

Sample Sale Report: MiH April 2013

Last night I stopped by the MiH sample sale in Soho. MiH is the British brand that has been creating leg lengthening well fitting jeans since 1969. It sells at high end retail channels like Net-a-Porter and Barneys New York. I arrived to a spacious room that was filled with rack upon rack of skinny and flare jeans in a rainbow of colors. The prices are really great! Jeans are just $40 a pop, which is a steal considering that they normally retail for around $200+. I'm not going to lie, these jeans make my butt look pretty darn perky and I bought a few pairs to prove it - The Oslo in particular is my personal go-to with it's slim leg and mid rise, there is some feeling of security because it covers up some of the softer stomach bits.

Spot Check: Nordstrom Rack Shoe Sale!

Stopped by Nordstrom Rack at Union Square this afternoon and noticed they got a new shipment of shoes in.   There's a few racks set up near the cash on the opposite aisle from all the other shoes which are filled with Prada, Lanvin, Jimmy Choo, Manolos and more.   Sizing and styles are for the most part random and range from size 5-11. Here's a quick rundown of what's up for grabs.

Mr. Porter Round 2: Up to 80% off!

Mr. Porter ramped up their sale this morning  - which is now up to 80%! There's a great selection and lots of items which were previously marked as 50% off are now 70%.  I've literally been on the site on and off the whole day and merch is flying off the electronic shelves!  Since Mr. Porter offers FREE shipping and FREE return shipping - this is one of those instances where I'd advise to buy now and think later.

Here's some of what's still available:
