deals of the day: a new take on preppy, and holiday markdowns

these glossy anthracite loafers from tory burch are hitting me in just the right spot today today. they’re uptown prep meets downtown hip, and the balance is oh-so-right. i’m dying to pair these with tights and a classic flannel skirt. and just picture them with a great plaid schoolgirl kilt. or, if you’re on board with the boyfriend jean trend, what a perfect way to top off (er, bottom off?) the look!

whatever you like about them, they’re marked down from $275 to $77 at plaza too today…along with all manner of other crazy deals.

and while we’re at it, in celebration of president’s day, a couple of killer deals have crossed my path:

* 30% off sitewide on all full-priced merchandise at blue bee with code VAL0930.

* an additional 25% off sale items at tobi with code 25MORE.

those goodies should keep you busy on your day off!

fug or fab? tory burch ‘happy’ clutch

normally, a piece like this isn’t one i’d run toward…but for some reason, the new happy clutch from tory burch ($395) is exactly what i want this week. colorful, fun, and unpretentious…yet still stylish. and i love the optional chain handle, which makes this work as a clutch or a ladylike shoulder bag. i think it’s making my inner 7-year-old want to come out and play. those bright purple and fuschia colors, the polka dots…it’s the perfect antidote to my boring fall wardrobe palette of black and grey, but it’s still bright enough to use right away.

so, what do you think…fug or fab?

deal of the day: saks labor day markdowns

shopping truth: after a promotional discount code shall quickly follow massive markdowns. case in point: both shopbop and saks have cut prices on all of their pre-fall pieces just days after their respective “shop and save” events. typical. the shopbop sale wasn’t thrilling me, but saks has me all aflutter.

hurry over now to score this morning’s 40%+ markdowns on early fall pieces i’ve been dying to own, like this vince boyfriend cardigan i mentioned a few weeks ago, and this gorgeous quilted tory burch leather jacket. and the dresses…my god, the dresses. this robert rodriguez is an amazing classic, and a piece you can wear year-round. or this lovely DVF that’s making me oh-so-happy right now. i even love this elizabeth & james wilde vest jacket – so preppy, but so cool…and about 60% off, so it’s actually reasonably priced now! but move fast…the good pieces are going to be gone the moment i find my american express card!
