the stuff dreams are made of

i am itching to go to a sample sale. a real sample sale. someplace where i can blow all my money, yet still feel a sense of accomplishment. there's a betsey johnson one today, but i dont know if im going to go. what i'm really craving is the prada sample sale. it was amazing, the one that i went to 2 years ago. i still remember it like it was yesterday. this was the kind of stuff you can only dream about. you had to make an appointment each time you wanted to go, and i remember making several! once you get there, its like being a little kid in a candy shop.

the coolest part? the prices listed on the tags were wholesale prices! in addition to that, each day the additional discount got steeper and steeper, until, in the end, it was all an additional 75% off. i think i ended up purchasing 3 pairs of shoes, 2 tops, 2 bathing suits, a pair of patterned tights, and a beautiful pleated wool skirt. *sigh. when will the next one be???
