When I lived in New York, my part-time job could have been a sample sale shopper. Luckily, as a fashion editor, I had the good fortune of being invited to the city's best sample sales (editor VIP days rock my world) usually before they were open to the public, and could easily scoot out of work during the day to hit them up.
Sample sales aren't for the weak-spirited, that's for sure, and there's definitely a method to the madness so that you can emerge victorious (i.e. nab the best designer goods for less than retail.)
Needless to say, I miss those days, but the good news is that I've found my way through L.A.'s jungle of sample sales and cleaned up at yesterday's Velvet sale! Tons (and tons and tons) of really cute, comfy basics in a rainbow of colors--all for about 50% off what they usually retail.
Yay!
