Hermes Nuttynut - Loooooooove your flats! Fabulous! Congrats!!!

VickyB - The scarves were $225 plus 8.275% tax

Thanks so much, Luvbolide! I've PM'd Seton and Balthus already..... I think I've already been swayed by the group!! I snuck out of work this afternoon to look for more scarves! I almost got the Soiree de Gala that LeMonde just revealed - love that so much! But no "au coeur de la vie" scarf (which is what I was really hoping to find), unfortunately.......

Bordelle, no plisses or anything new today. I guess they really meant it when they said no new stock!!

Thank you galpal2! I wonder if they really won't bring new things for the weekend... :confused1:
btw, I looked up the scarf you mentioned (au coeur de la vie) and OMG!!! It's gorgeous! Definitely wasn't there when I looked on Thursday :sad:

For those of you who don't want to stand in a huge line and cannot make it to the private or first day..don't fret. They always put out new stuff daily. It's really fun, so try to go if you can...even if it's at 7pm on Thursday! Avoid Saturday like the plague. Enjoy and buy LOTS of stuff!:heart:

why avoid saturday?:confused1:
 
Well... I decided to go again today; not really counting on finding anything new but a friend from abroad really wanted two of the scarves I bought last time so...
I would have already been there if the ferry didn't leave 30 seconds early and if they didn't close the closest parking lot :mad:
Will report back soon...
 
9:50 the line is still not bad, about 45-50 people.
Only 10 minutes to go! Wish me luck :)

And the weather is great, getting warmer every minute. I wish I didn't wear my fall coat but it was so cold in the morning... Now I'm glad they check the coats LOL

Yay! LeMonde is there:yahoo:!!! I look forward to your updates :yes:- please let us know what you find? I seriously was up at 5am thinking about driving over but then i kept thinking of the selection is the same, I will regret losing sleep haha. I am still not sure if I should go. I relaly wanted the smallest garden party in something other than the brown leather, but didnt see those. Also no plisse's or accessories ....LeMonde, let us know if you find any new items!

Wow, J!

Between your reveal late last nite and early for the sale, did you get any sleep?:faint:
 
Is the sample sale still going on Sunday?
some sites (like the nytimes) say there is the sale on Sunday and some sites say it ends Saturday.
most sites say that the hours of sun are 1-6 pm

is is still going on sunday?
 
quick update:
Absolutely NOTHING NEW... Many designs in scarves sold out... Horse and orange coin purses still there... Only two fragranes left...
But I did buy something that I wasn't planning on under NO CIRCUMSTANCES LOL... I shouldn't have gone again LOL

At 1:30pm NOBODY in line!

Will write more when I finally get back home...
 
seton - Good eye LOL Didn't get much sleep but with right motivation I can do it few days in a row ;) I used to work for advertising agency and sometimes I didn't get to sleep at all for 40 hours straight... I much prefer doing it for H than ungrateful clients LOL
