Rebecca Minkoff Sample Sales!

Rebecca Minkoff, queen of chic leather handbags in functional yet uber-fashionable styles, is now a household name among savvy stylish girls from coast to coast. Minkoff actually has quite a special place in my heart because I'm proud to say that she was my very first 'Deal & Steals' promotion back in 2006 when I launched the section at InStyle.com.

At the time she was just starting out and not even a blip on most people's radars. I distinctly remember reviewing her line sheets and thinking it was incredibly impressive (I snagged a few bags for myself without any hesitation) and knew she would fast track her way to success in no time. Why? Because she filled a niche of everyday styles at an affordable price point--and yes, her stuff was much more affordable back then!










I quickly put her on blast, proudly carried a few of her bags about town and have really enjoyed watching her rise to the top in a short amount of time.

And with every fashion success story comes a treat for her loyal fans: a sample sale!
