Spring Studio Sale

Thursday, March 19th, 2009

As spring breezes in we’re gearing up to give great deals on our Spring samples and seconds. Here’s a little backgound, every season we make at least 10 sets of samples that go to press, showrooms and other events. Not all of those styles are produced so many of the items at our sale are limited to about 10 pieces and still cuter than can be. A second describes any of the products that aren’t sellable because of a small hole here or a twisted strap there. The sale will also host Betty’s Belts. Ventura-based Betty Belts will be bringing their beautiful natural jewelry, belts and bags. Owner and designer Donna von Hoesslin will bring her secret stash of samples from Bali with many one-offs as well as irregulars and closeouts deeply discounted to as much as 80% off! For the best scores, come early (this also applies to the snacks!) Here’s the info:

Check out the full story to get a sneak peak at some of the styles you’ll be able score.

Shown:
Courtside Jacket

This sporty little jacket didn’t make the cut for the season but seems to be the favorite of a lot of us here in the office. It has cute piping and hemp-silk accents giving it a sporty retro-flavor

Long Merrow Tank // Bound V Shell // Printed Scarf

As usual, we’ll have a bunch of our indispensable essential tees in new bright colors. I basically live in my pima tops and there’s no better time to stock up then at our sample sale.

Shown:
1/2 Sleeve Henley // Cap Sleeve Tee

These pointelle tops are super-limited and softer than you can imagine. The pointelle fabric is just as light as the pima but packs the added bonus of textured ribbing for lots of stretch and drape.

Shown:
Gathered Tank // Drape Collar Polo // Sailing Capri

Feeling a little preppy, you can get this whole look from head to wide cuffed hem.

Shown:
Lace Blanket Wrap // Blocked Dart Cami // Blocked Skirt

Oh the cashmere. Whether spring or fall, it’s always a hit at the sales. Once you can touch the sweater, feel how soft it is and see the incredible detail up close it’s very hard to pass it by.

This is the end of the pictures for this story but the sale will definitely not be limited to the looks above. There’s plenty more styles and limited pieces to choose from. I guess you’ll just have to see for yourself to appreciate the greatness that is our studio sale. Hope to meet you soon!
