Sale Report: Eva Warehouse Sale

Stopped by Eva last night to see what they had in store for their warehouse sale. Eva is always a fun place to visit and discover new contemporary and experimental designers who are anything but mainstream. The clothes and accessories are always interesting and unique. The sale was predominantly located in the back of the store with 1 rack of super discounts and a couple other racks with lesser discounts. There was also a large fur selection that included a wide assortment from Lynx to Mongolian lamb, although I would wait this out as it’s going to be marked down again come January 19th. The fur is still quite expensive but marked down significantly from the original ticketed price – but it is fur afterall.

As for the super discount rack it included a lot of sequin and drapey jersey.  This mesh sequin vest was marked down to $60 from $102.  The jersey swing vest is marked down to $66 from $185.  The glittering sequin jacket is now $75 (was $149) while the scoop back high-low sequin dress is $90 (from $180)

Some items at a lesser discount include items by Moonspoon Saloon which are about 15-20% off retail although I did spot a printed velour dress that was marked 50% off at $120 (from $240).

While the sale selection isn't the largest, the shopping experience was pleasant, staffers friendly and you'll find clothing that you wouldn't likely find elsewhere.
