Friday Shop Talk

Posted by The Editorial Desk / Friday, June 19th, 2009

Happy Friday, shoppers! Today I thought I’d not only send you a few spectacular sales:

– Reminder: The Farinelli’s Father’s Day Sale — featuring 50 percent off just about everything in the Clarendon store and online (use code “fathersday09″) — starts today!

– Super-sexy Lspace swimwear is now 30 percent off at the ultra-cool locally based website Hauteline.com! (You know if anything is worse than showing up to a party in the same dress as some other woman it’s spotting your swimsuit on another bod at the beach!)

– Spring/summer shoes at The Shoe Hive, in Alexandria, are now 30 to 40 percent off!

– Today is the last day of the Kate Spade Sample Sale, featuring unbelievable prices on her super cute handbags and other accessories!

– At The Outnet, beginning today and available for one week, is a special 50-percent-off sale on select items from fabulous designers including Catherine Malandrino, Matthew Williamson, Alexis Bittar and more!

– Laura Mercier’s premier beauty products go on a mega sale for members of the Gilt Groupe today at noon!

– At yoga-clothing.com, you can save 25 percent off with the promo code “TWITTER” today!

– And, don’t forget about the First Anniversary Celebration at Pink & Brown, in Alexandria, this Saturday!

I also thought it would be fun to check your shopping pulse. Specifically, I’d like to hear your summer fashion dos and don’ts. Come on, you’ve been out and about in the amazing weather and scouring fashion mags at the pool and beach; I’m sure you’ve noticed some looks you plan to imitate and others you can’t imagine anyone wanting to recreate. As for me, I can’t get enough maxi dresses. And, I can’t imagine wearing a jumpsuit like these!

I’m also curious to find out if any of you are like my hubby who set up a camping chair in Tysons this morning — way early! –  to make his highly anticipated purchase of the new  iPhone 3 G S. If you are, what do you think of your new toy so far?

By the way, Happy Father’s Day to all of you fathers out there, especially my amazing Dad! See some of you in Alexandria this weekend!
