I have a bad habit to only browse the sales racks. Luckily as I've got older I have learned to buy much more judiciously, even on sales. And I always try everything on.
Living in NY you can get spoiled with sales. There's always a sample sale or an outlet somewhere...
Last weekend I scored at Saks outlet, Off Saks (as so many times before - it really is a long time favorite, along with the original, Saks Fifth Avenue). I got 3(!) pairs of Not Your Daughter's Jeans, one pair of Akris pants for the office, a Boss dress, and a couple more things of which I can't even remember the brands.. Quite the loot! I also got Coach espadrille sandals at Bloomingdale's, and a Moncler vest.
With the weather being really poor in NY, I will probably get a lot of use out of the denim. Also NYDJ promises to make you look at least one size smaller. Can't wait!
Even though there are lots of sales online as well, I've never had good luck with online purchases. It is so easy to make a product look good in the pictures. Most of the time I'm disappointed at the actual product, which is why I don't buy much from the Internet.
My sales budget is pretty much depleted as it is..although I do have one teeny weeny trip planned to the Woodbury Commons Outlet in a week and a half...
