NY Spring 2010 Sale?

The small Dogon was 770 and I forgot how much the large was, but it was high enough that I decided to pass...

Interesting -- in looking at my pocket squares, they are each marked different prices. One is marked 78. the other is marked 120. But I think I would have noticed if they were priced differently on the receipt. I will check that.

I was disappointed that the RTW was still Winter 08, just like last sale. I would have thought it would be spring/summer 09.

I definitely bought less than my usual sale adventures, but I am very happy with what I did find!
 
We went in totally on a bag ban. My goal was silk, enamel and cashmere. No cashmere was to be found this morning; no exciting silks, but lots of other things. I left DH to peruse to his heart's content and then, there they were, the Constances. I asked about Bolides, but they kept saying no, no Bolides. I kept seeing occasional people with them, and asked the sales people about them. No, they insisted, no. I was so determined, but with the potiron Constance that I found, I was beyond thrilled. It was perfect, a usable size and perfect color. I asked DH to put away the silks (except for one black Bolduc,) and his few items and we went to stand on line. Then I saw it. There was a guy running merchandise back to the selling floor and there was a 37 black Bolide dangling from his finger. I ducked under the crowd control rope and actually ran to catch it. I asked if it was a Bolide and he had no idea because he had so much stuff. I guess people were making last minute decisions at the register, thus the 90 minute lines to pay. I had to hand the bag over to the sales person behind the bag display. She knew I had been looking and asking like crazy and demanded to know how I got the bag. I told her. I felt great. Like I won a prize.
It was a great day, a rush, a crazy rush of a day, but I wound up getting two beautiful bags for less $$ than two Chanels that I have on order (just cancelled.)
The Constance was the first H bag that I coveted. I never would get it because it was so tiny and expensive; this bag is actually practical and beautiful.
