Are NYC sample sale companies taking over LA?

Over the last couple of months we've had some NYC sample sale fever hit Los Angeles. 260SampleSale and Eclipse have recently started renting out empty retail spaces in the Beverly Hills area. So you might think is this the traditional Los Angeles sample sale you're used to that has ridiculously low prices? The answer is no but their strategy is smart and it's working. They bring in high end brands such as Sandro, Maje, Philipp Lim, Zadig & Voltaire, Kooples and others. I did some research and went ahead and spoke to the employees at both companies. Basically they do a buy out with each brand with wholesale prices of overstock items and then sell them at 60% percent off of retail to their customers. So basically it's a little lower than outlet prices. What best place to do it ? Beverly Hills of course. Where the prices are all retail and very little on sale. It's perfect for the woman shopping on Rodeo to stumble across 265 N. Beverly drive and find herself in ...

How to shop EBAY auctions and score some incredible deals!

A lot of you have been asking me to write about this for some time now. So here we go! I will try to make this short and to the point. Most of you message me and asking me omg how did you buy those $1200 authentic Chanel shoes for $100??? Well here is how and it doesn't always work but beginners luck is definitely a thing. Basically EBAY is a place where you can win some amazing auctions at very low prices. Most big EBAY stores/sellers will start their listings as low as 99 cents in the hopes that it will go up higher, but this is not always the case. A lot of the times new sellers attempt to do this as well and that is when you get super lucky! why? well because they don't know what they are doing and you get the chance to get lucky and score it for a low price. The whole thing is quite psychological if you think about it. So here I will give you step by step of how I buy on auction and win Gucci shoes for $30 or even Chanel shoes for that same price. Of course most of the...

Recycling your fashion and saving $$$

A lot of you may be wondering what I meant by " recycled fashion" in my last post. Well ladies and gents let me tell you it's revolutionary! Every 2 months or so I go through my closet and I clean out the items that I know I will no longer wear. Of course my ultimate classics and favorites will stay forever but there are those items that will not. I then post them on Ebay and sell them! For starters of course you will need an Ebay account. I suggest Ebay over Poshmark as Poshmark is really slow unless you have unlimited time to build your network. With Ebay they already have their world wide clientele and pretty much have that covered for you. Besides they take about 10% commission plus 3% for paypal transactions whereas Poshmark takes 20%. Alternatively you can reach out to me to sell your items in my consignment Ebay store however the commission does go up but you don't have to do anything other than drop it off to me and watch the $ roll in :) for more info on this...
