Sample sale: Barneys

Today it was rise and shine pretty early for me to make it to this weeks sample sale! Barneys New York had set up in one of the hangars down by Santa Monica Airport, and I can tell you, it was packed! Around 800 men and women fighting over Louboutins, Dolce & Gabbana, Diane von Furstenberg, Marc Jacobs and more! I tried on the most beautiful LBD by D&G, a purple lace DvF and several pairs of shoes including some Manolos and the cutest red Louboutins with a chiffon bow. Highlight of the day has still got to be the nude-colored chiffon gown with a huge black bow by Lanvin that I tried on, obviously way too fancy for someone who doesn't go to black-tie events very often (not to mention it cost over $3000), but still, sooo beautiful!

Unfortunately, the prices were a tad over my budget after all the summer shopping I've done so I had to leave empty-handed but it was fun to be there and I'm definately going to the next one as well :)
