NYC Sample Sales: May 12-18, 2014

Sample sales abound this time of year and there are plenty to fit the need of just about any shopper this week. My free time has been close to non-existent the past few weeks and so I really hope that it will slow down this week so I can make it to a sale or two.

If you are a bride-to-be, there is no better sale to look forward to than Brit designer Jenny Packham.

Other picks are the Adam Lippes for knitwear, Ter Et Bantine for luxe architectural womenswear, Veda for the perfect leather jacket, The New and W29 showroom for a variety of great labels. As always, if you shop a sale, let us know how it goes!

Trends: Manish Loafer


Fall 2009 at Ports 1961, Giles

Fall 2009 at Comme des Garçons, Christopher Kane

In contrast to the sky high platform shoes of the runways, some designers decided to give women a few more practical options. A take on masculine footwear including styles like lace up brogues & loafers were seen at a multitude of designers. I personally love the look, it's so classy! Especially the versions shown at Ports 1961 and Giles! Look for black shine leather and classic detailing.

Here are a few places to get the look now:
Melissa has a yellow rubber version for $70
Jeffrey Campbell has a feminine 2 tone version on sale for $79.95
Topshop has a fun pink or silver version of Brogues available for $125.
Repetto has a great metallic version for $295
Church's has a similar one to Ports 1961 for $470
Marc Jacob's has a gold and canvas version for $785
