Mikimoto employee sale

Update: Reader Michele reports she did not need her invite to get in, and go for strands, which are over 50% off. No pearl studs though.
"went to the sale today and was never asked to show invitation. no pearl studs...at least for mikimoto...did not look at blue lagoon merchandise. strands were selling like hot cakes - discounts were 50% and higher."

Mikimoto will be hosting their employee sale this weekend at Soiffer-Haskin. I received an invitation a couple of days ago, and the sale details aren't posted on their website. The card doesn't say whether you need a physical invite to get in or not, but I think in sales past you haven't needed one.

This sale, which has price points at 50+% off, usually creates quite the commotion (so go early). They'll have South Sea and Akoya cultured pearl strands as well as pearl jewelry with diamonds and gemstones.

  1. I did send an email to Mikimoto asking If I could go to the sample sale they said it is strictly by invitation only. Can you upload an invitation from anywhere.

  2. I will upload a copy of my invite tomorrow. It is cream cardstock, though, so even printing it out on a regular piece of paper may not suffice if they are really strict. I would actually suggest just showing up and saying you left it at home?
