There are lots of things I love about the summer. Easy, laid-back dressing. An excuse to drink margaritas while the sun is still up and wear way-brighter colors than I normally would. But what do I love absolutely most about July and August? Duh. The sales! Barneys New York is known to treat us to a whopper of a sale about twice a year, and this summer is no exception. If you risk waiting another week – or even a day or two – these staggering steals are likely to elude you. Here are my picks of the bargain bunch (seriously, the deals this year are so good this almost feels wrong).
Thakoon’s intriguing take on the double satchel, a mix of stamped-lizard and suede with a braided strap – might not have made the cut at full price, but at 75% it’s arresting enough to take out for a spin, if only once in a while. With a removable strap and magnetic closure beneath that buckles, it has function in mind. If you love funky, not to mention a killer deal, this has your name written all over it. Thakoon “Rampling” Satchel, $419 (from $1,660).
This tote by Barneys‘ private label has a hint of a McQueen “Novak” feel, but only just a dash – enough to make me fall in love with this everyday basic. Cream canvas is simplistic enough to go with just about anything and sharply graphic leather trip makes it interesting. Barneys New York “Spectator” Tote, $339 (from $850).
Asymmetry all over the place! Jil Sander decided to venture away from minimalist classics, as seen on this leather satchel, half-top zip and half-push-lock closure. This one might be a keeper for the records, and at this price, it’s worth the risk. Jil Sander Half-Frame Bag, $759 (from $1,895).
Helmut Lang’s “Loki” bag rushed on the scene with a storm, with off-kilter accordion style, faint whiffs of Alex Wang, and three compartments so you’re never rummaging around for long. This is an edgy city girl companion and at this price, it perfectly fits the bohemian within. Helmut Lang “Loki” Shoulder Bag, $289 (from $725).
It looks like the “Project Runway” co-hosts share a taste for sleek style, on and off the show. Heidi Klum carried Michael Kors‘ “Gia” bag, a black python version from Pre-Fall 2011, in New York two days in a row last week (you know a celeb really loves a bag when it gets multiple outings!). It just reinforced the fact that his clean and structured tote is all the rage.
This is the day bag you carry if you want to look instantly sharp and polished – it dresses up both Heidi’s flowing maxi and cotton sheath without looking out of place or overdone. Python (or crocodile-embossed leather, which is also available for more pleasant price) is timeless and so is the shape – hard but not stiff and ready to hold all your gear for a day’s worth of errands. It is also the ultimate bag for the modern lady: all-American and all-fabulous.
