One of the beauties of living in LA is the weather… and right now, it’s perfect!! I am not inclined to spend time at a warehouse or sample sale with the stellar outdoors beckoning

So if you’re a sample sale addict… I totally relate, but this week do your shopping at night….online.

If you’ve ever wandered into Madison you may have been overcome by retail lust. Great designer clothes… high prices. Now however you can cruise their web store for savings of 30%-70% and not be as overwhelmed. Most the savings are in the 30%-40% range but a few are 50% and up. They have dozens of cutting edge designers here.

I adore this trapeze dress. It will make it from day to evening and into our chilly winter months smoothly.  It was $357… Now its better at $143… a 60% savings

Ed Hardy fans should go to The Warehouse Sale in the OC this weekend.. They’ll be in L.A. in a couple of weeks.

But if you don’t want to drive too far, try Blue Fly.com. Ed Hardy signature tees w/ rhinestones are here at $89… But even with savings of 45%  (retail $164!) I have to give it a bit of thought…

Still it would save me from driving to the Culver City outlet!

In the Blue Fly.com clearance section are some superior buys. Perfect for fall, this Kritik terry hoodie is $74.99 down from the original $146…. Nearly a 50% savings.

Maybe I should be more practical and get ready for fall with this shorter version of a classic trench coat By Cole Haan

At $299 it’s 50% off the original $600. Still pricey… maybe I should go for either a knock off or a classic trench by London Fog.

SmartBargains.com always has some good buys…
This year I promised myself I’d go to more holiday cocktail parties. So I also found myself looking several times at this cocktail dress by Taylor. Originally $158, it’s now $59.

Cute Uhn?

Have I told all of you bargain shoppers how much I really like and respect you?

I often get feed back from sales and stores I recommend about you BargainsLA shoppers. Except for a few, I consistently get dozens of reports telling me what a great group of people you are… smart, fun, savvy and generally super nice. Store owners and  sample sale organizers rave about you guys.

I must say I am a very lucky person to have such a nice group of people following my leads.

So here’s to toast you…. Hip Hip Hurrah! Thanks for being so terrific!
BargainsLA shoppers are Super De Duper!
