Black Friday 2013 Sales For Fashionistas Looking For Discounts On Designer Clothing [LIST]
Admit it. Even though you’re a fashionista with a taste for pricey luxury items, you still can’t resist a good sale. When it comes to shopping your favorite stores – the four Bs: Bergdorf, Barneys, Bendel and Bloomingdale’s – a few bucks off that $1,000-plus Marc Jacobs tote or $500 Rag & Bone Newbury booties means extra cash in your Burberry wallet, or maybe some extra dough for that luscious Tom Ford lipstick for $50 you’ve been eyeing but couldn’t justify buying.
Lucky for you, the shopping event of the season, Black Friday, is nearly here, with countless opportunities to score discounts at sales by your favorite department and boutique stores, just in time for the holidays.
But don’t pigeonhole yourself into just those elite upscale shopping havens like Saks Fifth Avenue, Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus and Lord & Taylor; many flash sale sites, discount stores, clearance outlets and other sartorial sanctuaries are having sales that we could only classify as ridiculous this year, beginning on Thanksgiving Day.
And, best of all, the holiday sales don’t end on Black Friday, Cyber Monday or even free shipping day. IBTimes spoke with an expert about the best deals on Black Friday, and according to Steve Schaffer, CEO of Offer.com, when it comes to designer goods, it might be best to wait.
“Cyber Monday is a better time to buy clothing because you’re going to find storewide sales and storewide offers,” Schaffer said. “So 10 percent off on everything at X,Y,Z stores. For designer clothing, my recommendation is to shop the off-brand stores like Bluefly, 6pm, Haute Look, Neiman Marcus Last Call. … You’re going to save the most money.”
So, whether you choose to start now, shop on Thanksgiving, Black Friday or Cyber Monday, or hold out until after the shopping extravaganza concludes, you'll want to check out this roundup of the best designer sales to make any fashionista salivate.
