Call in Sick for Work: Rebecca Minkoff's Sample Sale Is Back

In the olden days of Rebecca Minkoff sample sales, shoppers had to queue in a hotel lobby at 6 am on Saturday morning and wait for deals. These days, we can sleep in Saturday and score our discounts on a work day: what a time to be alive!

Rebecca Minkoff's new, improved five-day sample sale runs Tuesday, July 16 through Saturday, July 20 at the Rebecca Minkoff boutique (2124 Fillmore Street). Hours are 11 am–6 pm Tuesday, and 11 am-7 pm Wednesday through Saturday. Save up to 75 percent off ready-to-wear, handbags, shoes, and accessories. If you've got summer travel coming up, check out the backpack options. (The nylon backpacks are outstanding for getaways.)

Minkoff may have built her reputation on her covetable bags, but the lady makes a legit jacket. Go for the crossbody, stay for the outerwear. But whatever you're shopping for, arrive early when the selection is best.
