Digging Though the Brown's Sale
Brown's is having a 50% off sale! Except it's still tres difficult to find something under $400, what's up with that? And t-shirts don't count :P But when I high-end store is having a big sale, there's always plenty of chances to find pieces you'd never be able to afford at retail. So I did some digging and came up with these gems. Starting in the top left corner and moving once I hit the end of the row I start at the left again in the next row:
And just never, ever spend more than $400 on something that couldn't be described as "classic!" If it's not a ball gown and you can't wear it more than five times a year, it's just not worth it!
Thanks Wendy B for the heads up on the sale!
- ok, this Lanvin ACNE dress is a $408, which is more than my $400 limit, but it's cheaper here than the sale price at Barney's right now, which is $499!
- This silk Balenciaga top has cool shiny lurex wrist details, taking it from basic to futuristic cool. Buy for $286.
- This green 3.1 Philip Lim jacket would make a great lightweight jacket for summer or wear as a blazer. Buy for $335.

- These pink sole pumps by Alexander McQueen are just to die for! Buy for $392.
- This sheer knit top by Alessandro Dell'Acqua has such a pretty bodice detailing, sultry but if you pair with a crisp blazer you could totally rock this at work. Buy for $286.

- This House of Holland tee with John Galliano just cracks me up! Buy for $82.

And just never, ever spend more than $400 on something that couldn't be described as "classic!" If it's not a ball gown and you can't wear it more than five times a year, it's just not worth it!

Glad to give you a head's up on the sale but I know you know I TOTALLY disagree with this: "And just never, ever spend more than $400 on something that couldn't be described as 'classic!' If it's not a ball gown and you can't wear it more than five times a year, it's just not worth it!"
Iris Apfel and Isabella Blow would just say no to that! ;-)
The weirdest things I've gotten are the ones that age the best, IMHO. But I'm contrarian that way.
