PLEASE GUESS HOW MUCH THIS YVES SAINT LAURENT MILITARY PUMP COST!? PLEASE! I BEG!


new york - okay, so before i begin, lets please reflect on the power of the sample sale. these special sales, where editors and fashion industry types get a chance to buy high end/luxury goods for up to 80% are nothing but a god send. case in point: ysl's sample sale. assuming you work in fashion/media in new york city, you know about the one that went down this summer. ( i bought a tribute tote for $100 which originally cost $1600). but do you know about the super secret incognito one which just happened last week? there was no flyer, no email, nada. what was there? a discreet phone call to certain editors asking them to come to the ysl office and go off! there's good reason for all the hush hush. from what i hear - i never got the call and besides...i'm in london - the prices were insane. my source tells me that there was a $10 rack of clothes and best of all, amazing shoes like this military pump (which is AT STORES NOW and on sale online) cost only $75. it originally retailed at $459. i know. i feel just how you feel. congrats to my editor friend who snagged this sexy pair and was kind enough to send us an email sharing. or was she gloating? either way, me and the blaynistas love you and your shoes! xo, zb
