Some people get excited about wedding season, others are excited for the fall season, I get excited for sample sale season!!!!!! I tend to be a buy now-where now kind of shopper so sample sales work out perfectly for me. What good are fall clothes purchased in June/July? I can't wear them then, they sit and take up too much of my already limited closet space, and most importantly taunt me that I'm sweating in the subway, my make up is melting off, and I'm still ions away from the crisp fall weather. The first of sample sales have been posted so now I'm attempting to prioritize and schedule my sale attendance accordingly!
You're going to want to check out the closet clean out happening at Digby & Iona. Becky purchased this 13 point deer ring this summer and I don't think it has left her finger since. The company designs with a sharp wit and innate sense of humor while still executing their philosophy of quality, character, and individuality. I promise you'll leave with something unique and charming.
