Update Barneys New York Warehouse Sale












So I was looking forward to today filled with excitement and wonder. Butterflies in my stomach. It almost felt like Christmas but it wasn't. It was the morning of the Barneys New York Warehouse Sale, here in Los Angeles. I get there at 8 o'clock right when the doors we're suppose to be opening. But little did I know I was late. Crazy shoppers were already in there making a mess. Dragging around clear plastic bags overstuffed with their plunder. The South Hall K had racks and racks of designer dresses, pants and sweaters. DVF, Ella Moss and a lot of other brands I have yet to discover. They had tables and tables of designer jeans, Hudson, Genetic Denim, Rich and Skinny, Citizens of Humanity, on and on and on. To tell you the truth it reminded me a lot of Nordstrom Rack or the Cabazon outlets but Nordstrom Rack and Cabazon have better pickings. HOWEVER, my manly Smashonistas they did have a lot of men's clothing, ties, shirts, jeans, suits, jackets. Prices varied. The least expensive item I saw was a Barneys New York purse for $30. The most expensive thing I saw was a beat up pair of aqua Louboutins for about $500. Cute but geeez looked like someone had a good night out of dancing into the wee hours of the morning with these little numbers. That's not to say if you have the patience and time and want to really dig around you won't find a nice not-beat up bargain. I can't imagine what the merchandise is going to look like come August 15th. All merchandise pictured above was under $60. (can you tell I have a thing for purple). Oh and no I didn't buy anything. Happy shopping!
