Scarves/ties are around 40-45% off retail and everything else is around 50% off. Items go on sale 2 years later, e.g., January 2017 sale will be items from S/S2015. That's the general guideline although I've seen one off current season item at the sale but like all things H, there's no rhyme or reason. Expect majority of sale items to be from 2 years past is a good rule. You can find January Winter sales here and June/July Summer sales here.

So for fw2016 I would have to go to the 2018 summer sale? Yes I think my heart will be over it by then.

I am in the US. I thought the word sale was too good to be true
 
Oh geez... the emails from the inlaws telling me that Paris is unsafe will be flying any moment now. [emoji849] I am planning to leave my 4 mill euro diamond at home this trip. I hope they don't target me for my farandole. [emoji23]

Maybe leave it in the vault this trip [emoji6]

I am glad no one was hurt and perhaps this will make them think about how much they share especially with all the kids around

I just read about KKW. No matter how much I dislike her style or what she represents, she did not deserve what happened to her. I also hope that the kids were not there, too. Where were her bodyguards?

I also think much of what was taken is probably pretty hard to fence without cutting the stone(s). Especially true if they took her e-ring.
 
That makes me sad for her. Worst than losing the jewelry is the effect on her psyche. How can she ever feel safe again? Even if she had a couple of bodyguards, could they withstand 5 with guns? Will she have to hire an army to protect her?
 
My second, far more cynical thought is that perhaps this might be a publicity stunt. Went over to the KKW celebrity thread and this thought is shared by many.

It was my first thought too. I wouldn't put it past them. Where were the bodyguards? Maybe she will decide to fade from public life and live a quiet private life now? [emoji1317]

You are a far better person than I dear Cordie. I can't muster any sympathy for her or the rest of her family.
 
Being robbed is a violation no matter who the victim is. If it was a publicity stunt, the hotel ought to sue her for at least 10 million U S dollars. (I have no idea how this picture got into this post.)

Beautiful rings Madame.

I'm sure that even they know it would be a crime to fake something like that so it's probably true. I'll still place my sympathy elsewhere and hope that they decide to retreat to a more quiet existence.
 
:lol::lol:
Ok I feel somewhat bad for her. But still wish she would go away.

True to form, my 90 year old mil with the proper English accent called DH first thing this morning to say "dear, tell A not to go to Paris. It's not safe. That girl... I don't know her name... you know, the one with the big bottom.. was robbed." [emoji849]
hahahah!
 
Hi Cafe,

I have to confess, I have a guilty secret. (whispers, I watch Keeping up with the Ks) I do not think they would stage this for PR, it's too awful and the poor concierge who was tied up and likely subdued with violence-I can't imagine even the diabolical PR machine that is their mother would want this to happen.

I do hope that they will use this as a reminder to keep all the kids safe and tone down the amount of consumption/luxury they share. I don't begrudge them owning those things but I do think they are painting targets on the back of their Yeezy jackets. The youngest has had to move 3 times for security reasons. Having been robbed on the street several times in my college years, it's terrifying.

On a lighter note, if you guys still want to talk to me now that you know my shameful TV watching habits- I have a lovely week ahead working on a project for my dream client. All the pieces are coming together for a wonderful week and it is my wedding anniversary today. I had a busy work weekend, spent yesterday lounging and napping with our cats and today I'm doing some prep and desk work. DH has some kind of surprise for me and will call me later with instructions. I hate surprises but he's done pretty well this year.

I have been having Paris dreams and am getting excited though my trip is still 4 months away. In my dreams all sort of gorgeous H bags find me without waiting in the line at 8AM, let's hope that comes true as I do not like to rise early on vacation and I can't even imagine the response I will get from DH and my dad if I tell them the "process".

Hope everyone has a lovely start to the week!
