Temple St. Clair sample sale (!!!!!)
An awesome update from a fabulous commenter. Thank you!!
Prices started off at 30%, 60% and 70% off. As of 2/7, prices have been reduced to 60%, 70% and 80% off the butterfly collection. No amulets left other than 2 really big ones with original retail prices of $17k. At 10am this morning, there was a healthy selection of rose gold angel charms, both with diamonds and with only 3 (sale prices starting at $330). The zodiac pieces have been depleted, with a small selection remaining. Sterling silver zodiac necklaces, originally $250 are now 60% off. There were some pink tourmaline and peridot rings for about $500+, one black opal ring with an original retail of $7295 (now 70% off) and some random earrings in tourmaline and peridot.
Definitely worth a visit, though the lunch rush crowd is probably reducing inventory right now.When I saw this sale, I could not believe it. I didn't even want to post it because I want to be the only one there, buying everything!! Haha, except even at sample sale prices, I am preeetty sure I could not afford everything.
So, fine. You win, I will share. Here it is, the sale I've been dreaming of for years now. Temple St. Clair. Up to 70% off. YES.

Bally sample sale
I haven't bought Bally in a looong time. I often wondered what happened to the brand and how it seems to have lost its cachet. The quality, however, has remained really good, (after all, it is Swiss).

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.

Carolina Herrera, Rena Lange sample sale
I am just in love with Carolina Herrera. Her style is elegant and timeless, and although I do not like Renee Zellweger (even though we are from the same town), Renee does a good job modeling her creations.
In addition to RTW, there will be bridal! A must-visit if you are all about the perfect classic gown. There will also be a selection of clothing from Rena Lange, and all will be up to 85% off.

Bulgari sample sale
Must... keep... shopping... And straight on through next weekend! ;)
Warm up your engine at the BVLGARI sample sale which will have jewelry, watches, bags, accessories & fragrances up to 75% off. Previous sales had awesome watch selections which were very reasonably discounted (and very popular), so if you're thinking of snagging a watch for a gift (or yourself, as I certainly am not one to talk about over-self-indulging) sharpen your elbows.

A three-name heavy hitter, and a must-go in my books. They'll be something for every woman at this sale, although there should be some good mens gifts. Everything up to 70% off.
Home:
Christofle will be unloading their signature silver goods: flatware (incl 5-pc place settings), vases, serving trays, frames, jewelry, and also crystal glasses/vases/bowls and porcelain pieces and gifts. (Last sale 'gifts' included little personal silver trays and bookmarks)
Womens accessories:
Judith Leiber will have sunglasses and evening/exotic bags
Jewelry:
Garrard, the official jeweler of the British Royal Crown, will have fine jewelry, silver, leather goods and mens jewelry available. I actually like quite a few of their ring settings.
