Start of the sale season
By Nadine Kam
Dolce & Gabbana dress at Sak’s Off Fifth. I’m not certain, but it may have been reduced to something like $1,280 or $1,680. I didn’t study it too closely because it’s a size 10, not even a possibility.
The change of seasons means one thing to fashion lovers, and that is, SALE time! On Sunday I headed to Waikele Premium Outlets because I’m always curious as to what they might have. The Sak’s Off Fifth hasn’t had great things in a while but I thought I’d check it out and they do have a lot of stuff fresh off the spring racks like one of the Diane Von Furstenberg shirtdresses I kinda, sorta wanted but never had time to try on during the regular season.
Well, I tried it on and determined the reason it didn’t sell is because it gaps too much at the chest. Whew. It’s kind of a relief when things don’t fit.
Retro mini from Milly looks perfect for Hawaii.
They also had a lot of Elie Tahari, plus lots of sunny, summer-ready dresses from Milly and high-end pieces from Marni and Dolce & Gabbana.
Sadly, between a late lunch at The Contemporary Museum ending at 2, and the mom wanting to eat early as mom’s often do, at 5 p.m., and running into a couple of friends at the store, I only had 1 hour to look around. So I never left Sak’s and never found anything.
There may be a better sale coming up over Memorial Day weekend though, which starts Friday the 23rd. As always, don’t get in my way.
