Michelle Obama Favorite - Tracy Reese Sample Sale Bursting With Color
No one does prints and pastels better than Tracy Reese in her collection favored by Michelle Obama for appearances at Walgreens or the White House. If you have been on a juice fast, or are supernaturally thin, try the sample rack when you first enter. One smart shopper at the preview, thinner than a celery stick, sat down to see if she could breathe, she nixed the purchase.
If you need some color in your life, be first on line tomorrow - they are unpacking boxes tonight. Check out the sample shoes which are looking lonely, everyone is so focused on the clothes.

Samples $25 at Cynthia Steffe: Inhibitions Bared As Bargains Abound
One woman walked out with an entire rack of clothes. Lost weight, bugbeds invaded your closet? Cheaper than going to the dry cleaner. You almost can’t go wrong at this sample sale which has jackets with the original tag of $595 going for $25. Leather jackets, skirts are $50. Go as soon as possible.
A near riot at the opening bell with aggressive line cutter wannabes, but the duo at wreakedhavocnyc put fear into the group. (See their video and pics) http://www.wreakhavocny.com/2012/05/people-have-no-shame-when-shopping-at.html They deserve a public service award for reigning in the crowd.
Be forewarned, there are no try on rooms, so people were making friends quickly as they swapped opinions on fit. Inhibitons unleashed and women stripped down to their La Perlas while men are milling about shopping and others outside are peering through the glass windows taking pics on their smartphones, so dress appropriately. There are also male workers, keeping their peepers peeled for pilfering?
Allergy season alert- it’s a bit dusty, so bring your inhaler. Also, check skirts, dresses, jackets for stains and safety pins, missing buttons, chalk marks, etc. You may also want to check the tag to see if you have a lucky Fall 2012, or one from 2009. If there is a better priced sample sale in New York, let me know. And if you are a seamstress, damages/unfinished garments are only $5.
