wow, the deals abound…i’ll update this post regularly as they roll in (look for codes updated with “NEW”), but for starters:

• there’s a simply amazing online sample sale going on at inhabit ny – also known as my #1 source for flawless cashmere.  and when i say sample sale, i’m talking $400 classic cashmere cardigans for $80.  i ordered one of almost everything on this amazing sale – hey, i figure i can give whatever i don’t love as a gift!  run, don’t walk.
• le train bleu is offering an amazing 40% off sitewide on monday with code cybermonday.  if ever there were a one-stop shopping opportunity for all of your girlfriends, this is it.  just a cursory glance led me to the perfect gift for my boss, my mom, and a dear friend.  personally, i’ll be doing my best to justify this gorgeous sky blue coat by heidi merrick.
• another 40% discount (plus free shipping!) going on at simply soles – the home of those lovely lilybee shoes we chatted about recently.  this is a fantastic opportunity to score a pair, and maybe tack on a little something extra to use up all that money you’re saving!  i’m cursing the fact that they’re out of these gorgeous frye boots in my size – if they have yours, this is an amazing deal on a brand that rarely goes on sale.  no code needed, as far as i know.
• tobi, an online favorite of mine, is offering 30% off sitewide, including sale items.  use code WEGOBBLE at checkout to score deals on paige denim, DVF dresses, and luxe mike & chris leather jackets.  tobi’s a great spot to find gifts for the stylin’ guy on your list as well – their selection of hip menswear is among the best around.
• 20% off sitewide at piperlime with code MONDAY – it’s rare to get a deal this good on a site this broad-based, so take advantage while you can!
• and another 20% off at restoration hardware with code RTGP118 – since this store is my ultimate hook-up for even the impossible-to-buy-for on my list, i’ll be taking full advantage of this baby!
• NEW!  the fall/winter stock at NY legend kirna zabete is down to a whopping 50% off…if you didn’t check it out when it was at 40%, this should be enough to tip you over the edge.
• NEW!  30% off sitewide at cole haan with code HOLIDAYSALE – these long leather gloves in stunning moroccan blue would be a fabulously luxe gift, or you could score a chic laptop case for the workaholic in your life.  grab some retro-chic loafers for yourself while you’re at it!
• NEW!  wow…a big 40% off regular price and 30% off sale items at SMC favorite basic boutique.  use code SHOPTHESALE to take full advantage!

all are good today only (well, except the inhabit sale, but that one will be pretty well picked over by day’s end in any event) – so get ready, get set…spend!
