I excitedly arrived at the Rebecca Minkoff L.A. sample sale early 11:20 a.m. or so I thought. Anxious customers were let in at 10 a.m. due to the fact that it was held at a residence and they were peeking in windows. As I approached a few women were leaving with 3, and 4 handbags. I rushed to get in, quickly scanned and grabbed two Nikki's and a make up bag. BTW, some individuals were carrying/hording six handbags for almost two hours. Most of the items were 50% off and fall/winter colors. The quality and leather of the handbags are so rich IRL. It was crowded and these women were serious about their RM's. I set my blue Nikki and make up bag down for a nano second to reach my cellphone and they were gone in a flash. 
Prices that I could remember: Nikki $315, MAM $300, MA $315, clutch $125, make up bags $65, Matinee $315.
I purchased a Nikki in glazed chocolate (like the one Hillary Duff carries). Speaking of celebrities, there were a few of them in attendance. Actress Cameron Richardson (of Alpha Dog & Chipmunks movie) was there and let me tell you ladies she is a natural beauty! Laura Prepon of That 70's Show was there as well. Of course, Rebecca Minkoff was there at the sale table. I told her I was a member of tPF and that we love her. Rebecca conveyed she was grateful for the tPF members and her featured article by our very own Megs. She said she has been very busy ever since. Rebecca is such a sweat heart and gorgeous in person. It makes me feel good that she cares about her customers. She graciously let me take a picture with her. I will post later. Thank you Meg & Vlad for finding this jewel of a designer for us.

Wish I could have been there. It sounds like heaven. Well, except for the part about you setting down the bags to get your phone and getting them taken away. *grumble* It sounds like you got a beautiful bag, though.
