So this morning, restricter and I decided to meet at the sale a little before 9 to see what (if anything) had been replenished, and for a jolly fun time gabbing and power-browsing. And, well, okay I lied. I did spend some money. Perhaps as much as I did on yesterday's loot. :shame:

There was absolutely no line outside, and no wait to get into the showroom. Shows you what kind of buzzkill the whiny negative reviews of long lines and poor selection on racked.com, dnainfo.com and Mizhattan will do for a sample sale.

But not to worry. The ever-intrepid Cakey found plenty to fritter her lucre on. :p

Today I snagged:

Accessories
  • A Dogon Card case in Rouge Moyen and orange
  • An O'Kelly Dog Collar with palladium mini Kelly lock in Rouge Imperial Veau Doblis

Jewelry
  • A Croisier leather Double Tour bracelet in Naturel Barenia with ruthenium hardware
  • A Las Vegas leather bracelet in Naturel Sable with palladium hardware
  • A Montsouris leather bracelet in Naturel Barenia with palladium hardware
  • An "In the Pocket" Bateau Barca leather in orange box leather
  • A Herakles ring in sterling silver and 14k gold

Scarves
  • A Les Petits Indiens Carre Impression Bloc de Bois scarf of Brides de Gala in Turquoise/Turquoise Clair/Bougainvillier
  • A Vintage 70cm scarf of Tigre Royal in Safran/Caban/Rouille
  • A Vintage 70cm scarf of Brandenbourgs in Marine Clair/Blanc/Bleu Vif
  • A 90cm scarf of Carre Kantha in Safran/Violine/Prune
  • A 90cm scarf of Tout en Quilt in Rose Buvard/Aqua/Tourterelle
  • A 90cm scarf of Chasse en Indie in Noir/Or/Sepia

Phew.
:D

I stopped by today. Jewelry was pretty much cleaned out, small leather goods wasn't that different from previous sales. They had agendas but I already have one so didn't look too closely. Scarf selection seemed smaller than previous years. In the end, I just got a bordeaux pm losange, and a few ties.
