Wow. I don’t think I have ever seen Chanel on a sample sale before. If you are a fan of European designers, this rocks! Friends at Fashionindie.com provided this hookup. They are describing the sale as everything is 80% off! Sweet. Clothing, handbags, shoes… yes! Also, if you print the invite, they’ll give you an extra 10% off! December 4th and 5th.

Boutique on 57, 12 West 57th Street, Suite 807; NY, NY. 212-247-2229.

Um, Salma…were they having a blowout sale at the Gucci store or something? The actress opted for not just a boho-chic Gucci peasant dress, but a monogram Gucci Indy purse with red leather trim as well. I’m on the fence here. I love me some Gucci, but I prefer to mix and watch my designer wares. I can’t help thinking the dress would work better with a petite clutch, and the handbag with a sleeker jeans-and-blazer duo. Am I wrong?

Sheesh. Could Katie Holmes look any more chic? From her artfully draped scarf to her perfect knee-high boots, she’s the picture of sleek and sophisticated style. So it’s only fitting that she’s got her trusty Hermes Birkin handbag on hand. I just love the presentation from head to toe: classic, confident, and cool. Suri would be proud.
