It's been quite a while since I last posted, but a new trend recently caught my eye and I'd really like to share it with you all. Online boutiques offering temporary private super-sales have been springing up like wildfire! It's no surprise they are so popular because the discounts are often 50-70% off great designers like 7 for all mankind, Juicy, Free People, Rock and Revolution, and even brands for your man. Here's how it works: An invitation only online boutiique will partner with a designer to offer a limited amount of peices at a discount. The sale usually lasts about 12-24 hours or until all peices are sold out (which often happens quickly!).

Online Designer Boutiques are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to ways a bargain finder can beenfit from a slumping economy. Always keep your eye on other discount designer outlets like Marshalls and TJ Maxx - they are carrying more designer surplus than ever before.

For a fantastic online boutique experience, email me requesting an invitation to join Rue La La at mediamakeup@rocketmail.com. It's free and you will get an e-mail every day showing you what designers are currently on sale. Happy saleing!

The weather is getting crisp as we get ready for another grueling winter. No need to get depressed, feel better with a little retail therapy. Now is the perfect time to buy some hot boots that will take you from fall into winter and even spring. The weather may be getting cold, but wearing this season's hot boots will make you sizzle. Here are a few of this season's must-have bargain boots for fall.
