Have you shopped the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale yet? The sale started yesterday but I didn’t really fancy anything apart from their beauty exclusives and Hanky Panky thongs so I did my shopping online. I did drop by at lunch time to snag a pair of Clarins UV Plus Day Screen SPF 40 (they are sold out!) and found lots of designer sunglasses by Oliver Peoples, Marc by Marc Jacobs, Fendi and more at $100+ (originally $300+). It was crazy then so I skipped the crowds and didn’t pick up anything. I might go back for a pair of Oliver Peoples sunnies and give my Chanels a break.
One of the most popular items from the anniversary sale is this gorgeous Tulah Ray Zip Split Satchel in berry. Most of it had been pre-ordered so my friend, who braved the crowds yesterday at 7AM, got the last one in the store. It was also briefly unavailable online so I’m thrilled to see that it’s now available with an approximate ship date of 9/19/08. I have two new handbags that I have yet to use so I didn’t really think of getting another one. But it’s gorgeous, yes? And it’s 40% off and only a click away. Should I go to the Foley + Corinna sample sale instead? Or save up for the Barneys Warehouse Sale (next month)? Sigh. Decisions, decisions. Update: The bag (in berry and black) is now sold out.

I missed the free Scoop NYC flip flop offer at Editor’s Closet yesterday but there’s still time to scoop up these fab metallic leather flip flops for only $18 and free shipping. You automatically get a $5 coupon upon joining Editor’s Closet, so that means your first pair is only $13! These high-end flip flops retail for $68 so don’t miss out on this fantastic deal! If you’re not yet a member, leave a comment below and I’ll send you an invite. The sale will close on Sunday July 20th at 7PM EST.
Ruelala will be holding a YSL sale tomorrow and this has piqued my curiosity. I wonder what will be on sale starting tomorrow at 11:00 am EDT (10:00 am Central/8:00 am Pacific). Will they be the handbags seen in the preview video (see photos above)? Will they be priced at up to 70% off as other sample sale sites have priced their merchandise? Will they have items other than handbags on sale as well (such as the Tribute platform sandals **crosses fingers**)?
I know, too many questions. But there’s only one way to find out: I’ll be visiting the sale tomorrow as soon as the “boutique” opens. Will you be checking out this sale too? Invites here, if you haven’t joined yet.
Update: I will be out of town through July 13 and may not have online access during this period. I’ll be temporarily closing invite requests until I return. Thanks!

If you were disappointed with the Gryson for Target line, you might be thrilled to know that a mainline handbag in Italian calfskin or lambskin leather can be yours at a steep discount at FunkyLala.com.
The Skye is now $260 (was $725) and comes in deep brown, black, mushroom (pictured) and putty. The woven version, in chocolate, cerise and moss, is now $445 (was $995). In patent leather, navy/black and white/gray, get it for only $280 (was $755).
The Olivia is now $380 (was $895) and is available in putty, riverstone (gray) and deep brown. The woven Olivia is now $475 (was $1295).
There are tons of other styles on sale as well as fab deals on other handbag brands such as Botkier, Rebecca Minkoff, Kooba, Andrea Brueckner, Goldenbleau and Sissi Rossi.
And if that wasn’t exciting enough, you can get even more savings with these coupon codes:
• Spend $350 – get $35 off (Code: DIVA1),
• Spend $600 – get $70 off (Code: DIVA2), or
• Spend $900 – get $140 off + a free upgrade to 2-day shipping (Code: DIVA3)
Update: I can’t believe it! The Skye in mushroom (pictured) is gone! Maybe I’ll just get a Tutu in white (now $340, was $1295) or liquid patent. The prices are too good to pass up!

The Foley + Corinna sale on Hautelook begins today at 8AM.
I’m very excited because they’ll be having a few handbags on sale at 65% off. I’m hoping to snag a City Tote in slate like the one you see on the left. (Update: It’s mine! Woohoo!) Other styles like the Jet Setter Jr. bag in dark brown will also be on sale. Of course, they’ll be having pretty frocks and tops as well.
You have to be a member to shop the sale but all you need to do is sign up (for free). If you’re feeling generous, you could also add shopdiaryATgmail.com as your referring email.
Let me know if you got anything!
