YSL SAMPLE SALE

All I care about in life is handbags and heels; and no, I do not care how that makes me sound.  Anyways, because I only have classes Tuesday/Thursday and no life in between I arrived to the sale at the tender time of 5AM and was about the twentieth person in line.
[If you know nothing else about sample sales know this: go early or go the fuck home. If you go early you end up waiting in line less time than you would if you go right when it starts and obviously you get first dibs on merchandise.]
Because I was within the first group to get in, I was able to score some much coveted handbags;
Y-Mail clutch ($445), Y-Mail tote ($1195), and a Vanity Bowler ($1795), and a pair of brown wedges which I conveniently already own in black ($895). All in all, I ended up spending $1400 and receiving $4775 in merchandise.

Cost Breakdown: 
Bags: $200-$800 (exotics are priced as marked)
Shoes: $200-$350 (...and there are Tributes and Trib 2's!)
Accessories (belts, jewelry, keychains, etc): $50
Sunglasses: $75
Coats: $600
Dresses: $300
Pants: $150
Skirts: $100
Blouses/Tops: $100

If you are planning on going to the sale get there early! Typically stock is added each night, but the bags are always the first to go. Remember, I was with the first 50 people that were let in and the y-mail clutches and plain leather bags were gone within moments!

Times are never 100% certain but the YSL sale is slated to last until tonight (10/24) at 8pm and tomorrow (10/25) from 10am-? at Soiffer Haskin 317 W. 33rd street, b/w 8th/9th ave.

Next sample sale I'll be attending: Christian Louboutin! So stay tuned for details.
