We love great deals on our designer favorites, but who has the time to comb through the racks at Marshall’s, or Filene’s basement? Although we won’t completely abandon our local bargain finds, the thought of pre-holiday crowds complete with Boston weather winter wear, makes us want to skip the local TJ Max after work, and head straight home for some hot cocoa.
Of course, we can’t forgo our seasonal shopping, that’s why we are smitten with online sale boutiques that offer the same discount deals on all our favorite brands!
Sites like Rue La La, Ideeli, and Gilt Groupe, all offer huge savings on name brands, by running time sensitive daily online sales of major designer labels, all at 40%-70% off, depending on the designer.
Basic memberships to the sites are free, but you have to be invited by a current member to join. ( Contact Us) and we’ll be happy to forward you an invite!).
When you see the deals, you may want to go a little crazy, but make sure to read the fine print! Some items are not returnable (underwear, hosiery, and some jewelry items) and others are subject to store credit returns, so make sure you are familiar with the label and how it’s sizing applies to you before buying. Sales are only up online for a few hours or 1-2 days, so items tend to sell out quickly.
That said, there are some serious bargains to be had, so, while others are sweating in the 20 people deep fitting room line downtown, waiting to try on some seriously over-tried designer blazer, you can put your feet up and click away!
