Savvy Designer Sample Sales: The Chic Fashion Clique!

Unless you live in a bubble, you’re probably aware that there’s a plethora of “flash sale” sample sites lurking around in cyberspace. Some notable names I’ve written about for Steals & Deals in the past include HauteLook, RueLaLa, Gilt and Ideeli, to name a few. And now, the latest newcomer worth checking out is Savvy Online – yet another cyber destination for designer merch at discounted prices. Woo hoo!

Sign-up for your free Savvy membership to save up to 75% off retail prices on dozens of big name designer brands. Once you’ve become a “style insider,” you’ll automatically receive a weekly e-newsletter alerting you about price reductions at popular labels like Acne (my favorite stovepipes), The Breed (knockout knit dresses), Staerk (haute handmade shoes from the U.K.) and Tylho (finely detailed separates, dresses and knitwear).

Another important tidbit worth mentioning: Savvy’s online events all last for a finite period (typically 36-60 hours), so you have to act fast if you wanna score all the hottest merch. But if for some reason you do miss out (gasp!), don’t sweat it. Savvy also holds regular brick and mortar sample sales in the Big Apple. Visit designersamplesales.com for more information. Happy shopping!
