Ladies Clothes Sale

Fashion Designer Dress

Recession…. Who likes that capital “b” anyways? Pardon my French! That was just one of those Italian warm blooded outbursts that I have to swallow down every now and then. The truth is that even though nobody likes what we are going through with this recession, it is a reality that none of us can deny. Then again, there are those who seem to remain surprisingly unshaken by that economic plague all around us. Maybe me and you have to wait till there is a sale at Nordstrom in order to buy those designer ladies clothes, but others, have to sign up on waiting lists in order to get them before they are even out there for us to see.

For those very few selected ladies, being the first to get that new designer handbag, or the finest shoes before they even hit the market is their top priority! Who can blame them? In the Bible, it says “He who is without sin, can throw the first stone”. In the modern fashion world, Sarah says “She who is without lust for uniqueness, can throw the first stone”! I don’t see any of you ladies picking up any stones. Who wouldn’t want to be like the character of Samantha Jones in the popular series? Note to my readers, if you don’t know who Samantha is, then you seriously have some homework. Anyways, Samantha always had her way. She would get into all the best clubs, get a taste of the finest clothing, shoes, handbags… you name it – she had it.

One of my girlfriends recently asked me if there was a way to get on those heavily guarded “be the first to buy” lists from the top ladies clothes couture designers. These lists, normally open once or twice a year, and it’s a fair assumption to say that your name is not getting in there, unless if you are a celebrity or if you know a celebrity. We live in an unfair world, don’t we? Then again, how can someone afford some of those prohibitive prices? We have seen ladies clothes with millions of threads, handmade, custom made in order to, in a way, hug your body and make you look stunning. These can range from low to high thousands of dollars. So, even if I was able to sign up on one of those lists, chances are, I wouldn’t be able to utilize what it has to offer.

Then again, that doesn’t mean that I can’t experience a night or two feeling like a little princess in one of those dresses. Now I got you thinking, right? How can you do that if you can’t afford them? The answer is simple – you rent them. Obviously, if I could buy, I would buy, but since I can’t pay the full price, I settle for paying part of it. Either way, chances are that even if I did own one of those Cartier or Hermes, or Perregaux pieces, I still wouldn’t wear it more than a few times. For those that disagree, I ask you to go and take a look at your closet and come back and tell me that you wear all of your clothes regularly. Leave a comment, I dare you! You don’t need to own a wardrobe valued in the millions of dollars in order to look fabulous, you just need to have access to it.

Trust me girls,
