Barneys Scarehouse Sale Redux

Here’s the full report on the damage Mom and I did at Barney’s Warehouse Sale. When I hit sales of the Barney’s ilk, I ask myself the following question before committing to a particular item: Would I still want this if it wasn’t on sale? This ensures that I’m not duped into buying solely because it’s a good deal.

Newsflash, ladies: Buying something at 75% off doth not equate to saving money. Spending less might give you peace of mind, but – let’s not kid ourselves – it’s still spending. Just make sure you waste your dough wisely (if that makes any sense).



I’ve been on the hunt for straight-leg rocker jeans for quite some time now. The subtle vertical stripe on these on Superfines is a nice touch, and the slight flare at the ankle means they can be worn with heels sans excessive bunching – they actually manage to be more JAPtastic than hipster. Superfines usually retail for around $180; these were $99. Me likey.



This gray, cashmere blend sweater has a sexy, low-cut back and feels like pajamas. Basically, I’ll live in it.

At $69, it was probs the cheapest thing at the Barney’s Warehouse Sale. So it’s only fitting that it now belongs to me
