I made 3 trips to the dressing room and stayed next to labels I knew so grabbing sizes would be quick. I walked away with a black Burberry pencil skirt for w/ trench coat buttons for $178 and a Burberry cardigan for $165. Not MUST haves, but pretty darn nice to have at <i>that</i> discount! I also tried on that Nina Ricci blazer I mentioned (which I really, strongly considered before I concluded it was ridiculous at $860). I also tried on this really comfortable blue YSL dress made of cotton jersey material that was marked down to $350 (pre-discount) and retailed for $1350. The only thing is, I didn't know if I was wearing it right-- it was really very "fashion-forward" and I couldn't wear it to any function-- too casual for brunch or weddings, too weird for other occasions. It's a good Fashion Week outfit, though.<br /><br />You should definitely go, but make sure you check the item before you buy-- a lot of things had snags and little tears here and there. Let me know how you do!Tinahttp://www.fashionprospectress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8947205253018075675.post-41325724265055622002010-02-19T16:53:51.730-05:002010-02-19T16:53:51.730-05:00Nice one Tina! ;)

The final cost is $30 or 30% of $100.
