SNEAK PEEK: Sharon Young & Ladies Designer Brand Clothing Warehouse Sale ~ Starts Thursday

Bookmark and Share

We popped over to the Sharon Young & Ladies Designer Brand Warehouse Sale to get a sneak preview and as promised, are posting some preview pics for you.  I hope you enjoy! 

This wonderful 3-day sale only happens 4 times a year ~ it runs this Thursday through Saturday (August 1-3), and everything is 50% to 75% OFF retail.

Here’s the inside scoop on what we found:

Sharon Young Sale August 2013 a

Click on any of the pictures to see a closeup view.

:: You are going to love this sale! I brought home some great pieces to freshly update my wardrobe.  Some of my bargain finds came from the rows of super flattering City Girl “power pants” in fun colors (these have a little inside tummy smoothing panel ~ so great!), 2 entire rows of Tru Luxe embellished jeans at 60% off retail, an abundance of oh-so-fashionable (and figure forgiving!) tunic styles, great wardrobe basics, and lots of “show-stopping” statement pieces.  It was hard to choose!

Sharon Young Sale CARMEL-BY-THE-SEA-4200K43   Sharon Young Sale PALM-BEACH-4117D13-OPTION-1

:: We fell in love with the maxi dress and the wide leg pants pictured above ~ super stylish and comfortable, too!

Sharon Young Sale

:: The warehouse is packed with brands that are carried in high-end department stores and fashion boutiques ~ designer fashions from Sharon Young, Vicente, City Girl, Multiples, A La Carte, and more.

Sharon Young Sale August 2013 b

::  I found a huge selection that covers a wide variety of styles from trendy to traditional ~ and ~ from “running to the grocery store” casual to night-on-the-town dressy.  Plus, there is a nice variety of sizes to fit and flatter. Sizes range from Ladies & Petites 2-18 and there is even a fantastic collection of stylish Womens Plus 14W-24W.

We had a great time previewing the warehouse sale for you.  I hope you are able to make it over to the sale to grab some bargains, too!  Here’s the information you’ll need, in a nutshell…

Details, details

Where: 10367 Brockwood Rd ~ Dallas. You’ll see signs directing you where to go (or just follow all the ladies you will see!).
Do note: There is a large dressing room provided for trying on all your finds, but typical of women’s fashion warehouse sales, it is ladies only and not private. Since this is a women only event, husbands, guy-friends and kiddos under 12, please stay comfortable at home.

Be sure and take note of this offer if you are a Bank of America or Merrill Lynch cardholder.

Perot Museum Dallas FREE tickets

Bank of America & Merrill Lynch bank cardholders can get  FREE admission to the NEW Perot Museum in Dallas as well as the Fort Worth Museum of Science & History on the first Saturday and Sunday of each month (that would be this weekend ~ August  3 & 4).  To participate, you will need to show a photo ID and a valid Bank of America/Merrill Lynch credit or debit card when you get your tickets.

Savings tip:  The offer is good for 1 ticket per bank cardholder.  Therefore, if both you and your spouse (or friend) each carry a card, you can get 2 tickets if you each present your cards separately.

20% OFF Back to School Kids’ Shoes at Amazon

Bookmark and Share

This is a nice deal.  Spend $50 on eligible kids’ shoes sold and shipped by Amazon & get 20% OFF your total purchase To get the 20% OFF, go here, and then at checkout, be sure to enter the promo code BTSKIDS1 for eligible items.

We are big fans of buying shoes from Amazon ~ they carry hard to fit sizes (my husband has some of the worst feet to fit!), prices are usually much lower than department store prices, and if something doesn’t fit or you just don’t like what you ordered, return shipment on shoe orders is FREE.  It’s so much easier than driving to the store and standing in a line!

   

I hope you find just what you are looking for! : )
