Spring is upon us! This week, we welcome the first full week of spring and relish in the fact that (hopefully) snow boots and bulky winter coats will be a thing of our past after Monday’s non-threatening snow shower. The sample sale slate remains slow this week, due to our celebratory spring holidays, including Passover, which begins on Monday, and Easter, which hops to us next Sunday the 31^st. As sample sale schedulers remain skeptic to attendance in a digital age, we’ll find a proper balance between the physical sample sale vs. the digital online flash sale by being attentive in knowing where the best deal occur and knowledgeable to the pro’s and con’s of the sale at hand. Of course, The Stylish City does all of this work for you, so you can stick with us and simply refer the site daily! This week, we ring in spring with fresh blooms, fresh makeovers from Laura Geller and fresh-looks from Nicole Miller.

Sample Sale Alert: Yellow

Saturday

Perform a last minute sale swoop on Saturday before heading over to Laura Gellar.  The Property Bi-Annual Sample Sale comes to a close on Saturday, where they are offering floor samples and furniture for up the 60% off, plus 20% off new orders. Here, you’ll find leather lounge chairs for $1,800 and glass tables for $4,200.  It is typically tradition that sales will slash prices even deeper during their final sale day, and if that’s not the case here, it won’t hurt to ask about available additional discounts! To stock up on winter clothing and fur coats for next year, check out the final days of Jennifer Tyler Winter Clearance Sample Sale for cashmere, jackets, and sweaters, and Sharnelle Furs Sample Sale for luxurious furs.

For the last stop of the day, revamp your make-up drawer with Laura Geller’s popular beauty products at the Laura Geller Semi-Annual Sample Sale. Geller, who is popular for her brightening powders, liquid neutralizers, and  her “Baked” line, is also the second best-selling make-up line on QVC. Come Saturday, her products will be on sale for up to 30% off, such as her eyebrow-defining markers for $17 and concealer-and-highlighter compact for $23.

Blooms and Beyond

Begin your Sunday fresh as a daisy in Herald Square thanks to Macy’s 39th Annual Flower Show, a two-week long celebration of flora displayed right in Broadway Plaza. This year, South Asia influences the blooms of the exhibit The Painted Garden, with a multicolored 10-foot-tall painted elephant seated that rests within. Events will be going on all week, so if you have a green thumb, or you simply appreciate the beauty of nature, be sure to check out macys.com/flowershow for the full line-up. On Sunday, a breadth of events takes place, including Live Music at Noon, Family Fun at 2PM, and High Tea at 3PM. If you’re not a flower fan, fashion fans can browse the visually stunning windows, which feature their own color scheme thanks to designer clothing, and floral and jewel-toned themes.

Nicole Miller Sample Sale

The Nicole Miller Sample Sale will be the talk of the town this week, and not just because it’s the only major sale taking place, well, maybe a little bit. Check in with us first thing Tuesday morning for a full review and photos from the sale, which promises to offer 80% off dresses of all kinds – evening, cocktail, day, and bridal – as well as accessories to pair with it. True samples will also be on hand at this event. Last month, Nicole Miller held an online sample sale, where all items were available for under $100, including her vibrant accessories, which topped out around $40. For those who can’t make this week’s Nicole Miller Sample Sale, check out the few remaining items from her online sale here.

Thanks to our spring holidays and Macy’s Flower Show I’d predict by the end of this week we’ll all be in a sunny state of mind!

Will spring come early this year? Late? On Saturday morning, the infamous Punxsutawney Phil will determine our future as he pops out from his burrow. Although we are all anxiously awaiting our seasonal prediction, perhaps while he’s at it he could also inform us as to what’s going on with the current sample sale season. I’m sure you are all tired of hearing this by now, but as we have frequently been pointing out the fact that sample sales have been few and far between as of late. Interestingly enough, many sales this week begin Friday or Saturday, on Phil’s Groundhog holiday, vs. mid-week. Perhaps designers and stores are hoping to draw in more of a crowd on the weekends with the added foot traffic? Who knows. Hopefully Phil will tell us. Until his determination, this weekend and Tuesday, don’t miss sales from In God We Trust, Scoop, Dagny + Barstow, Delicate Raymond, The Shoe Box and Kleinfeld.

SAMPLE SALE ALERT: YELLOW

Saturday Sale Surplus

If there’s a day to shop this week, it’s Saturday. A crazy amount of sample sales and warehouse sales are going on, so choose wisely. Last week, I visited Scoop NYC Ultimate Closet Warehouse Sale in SoHo and needless to say, I came away with a bag full of T by Alexander Wang tops and didn’t even come close to breaking the bank. T by Alexander Wang tops and Rag & Bone denim and cords were the majority in the sale, which is located in the rear of the store where 50% is taken off of already reduced merchandise, totaling a whopping 75% off retail prices. A sale like this one certainly trumps the crowded sample sales of the respectful designers at hand.

After visiting Scoop’s awesome sale, head over a few blocks over to the In God We Trust Sample Sample Sale on Lafayette Street. This fun and funky store features not only cool trinkets and quirky jewelry, but also vintage inspired clothing from the store’s brand and private label collections. Don’t think you’re done just yet. Jump a few blocks east to the Bowery and hit up the ultra hip Dagney + Barstow Warehouse Sale where 80% off will be deducted from pieces by edgy designers such as Roseanna, Sophie Hulme, Swash London and Micaela Greg.

If you still haven’t had your fill, drop down to the Lower East Side to visit the Delicate Raymond Valentine’s Day Sample Sale for 70% off funky necklaces, one of a kind samples, and vintage costume jewelry from the 1980’s. I know you’re exhausted by now, but on your way home pop in to the daily replenished, smoking Shoe Box Warehouse Sale, which we reviewed for you earlier this week.

Showroom Seven Sample Sale

For sample sale shopping veterans out there, you are all familiar with Showroom Seven’s Sample Sale by now. Beginning Tuesday, the showroom, which features merchandise by Charlotte Ronson, Issa London, Orla Kiely, and more, is known for slashing up to 70% off retail prices. At previous sales, there was a wide variety of accessories, with jewelry marked anywhere between $100-$900. Orla Kiely merchandise is typically the majority, with clothing priced between $100-$250. Issa London recently had a sale on Gilt, where many of her dresses were under $100, so be on the lookout for great deals on this admired brand.

Kleinfeld Bridal Anniversary Sample Sale

Gather up a trusty team of wedding gown snatchers similar to the one Monica assembled in the infamous Friends episode where they take on the Kleinfeld Sample Sale. The secret to success Monica held during her battle with the sale, was to have a specific gown and/or specific style picked out in advance. Print out three photos of the bridal gown, one for yourself and two for the lucky members of your team, and take on the racks of gorgeous gowns from Badgley Mischka, Lanvin, and more starting at just $999 with shoes and veils starting at $99.

Jennifer Tyler Sample Sale

The 25 year brand Jennifer Tyler, a long beloved label is now run by not only Jennifer herself, but Claire, the designer’s daughter as well. The semi-annual Jennifer Tyler Sample Sale will have a late in the day start at 4pm on Wednesday at the sale’s usual home, The Surrey on the Upper East Side. This year, the sale promises hip-length cardigans for $225 and cropped sweaters for $100 each. At past years’ sales shoppers found cardigans for $95 and fox trim ponchos for $650.

If Saturday Sale Surpluses are the new trend then so be it. Our bosses will appreciate it, especially if it means that we don’t come in an hour late every time there’s a Chanel or Dolce sale going on.
