The Lorelei clutch sample sale is kicking off tomorrow, Thursday May 7th @ 9: am PST / noon if EST over at the Gilt Groupe.

And you don’t even have to leave your desk.

Lorelei handbags were created by Laurie Kaufmann Willard. She studied Accessories Design at the Fashion Institute of Technology, where her final collection, inspired by Janis Joplin, won the award for “best handbag design” in the Student Design Contest sponsored by Elle Magazine and the Accessories Council and was featured on Macy’s Jumbotron in a FIT promotion.

Hump day is worth celebrating, right? And what better way to jump start the school/or/work week then with a little bit of saling. and there are some really good ones going on today….

Over at RueLaLa where the sales begin at 8: am PST / 11: am EST we have:

• BALENCIAGA BAGS
• Cynthia Rowley
• IISLI dresses, tops and skirts

At the same time the HauteLook sales are starting:

• Viv & Ingrid standout collection of jewelry
• Bjorn Borg Swedish-based men’s underwear and shorts
• Nest Baby for the little tikes
• Gaggia restaurant-quality espresso makers.

Then when the clock strikes 9: am PST / noon if EST over at Gilt Groupe:

• Marc by Marc Jacobs Clothing
• Delman shoes amazing American footwear
• John Varvatos Star USA for him
• Bochic bakelite cuffs, earrings and oversized rings

Also, over at ideeli there’s going to be a Cynthia Rowley handbag sale. But I’m not sure what time that one will start. Have a great Wednesday!

Just a little reminder that that Balenciaga handbag sale is tomorrow, so I hope you’re all ready –

The sale is set to take place online over at RueLaLa tomorrow, Wednesday May 6th.

Doors will open at 8: am PST / 11: am EST on the dot. One little piece of advice: be there on time. I’m sure everything is going to be sold out within minutes. On the plus side, unlike the other sample sale sites like HauteLook and GiltGroupe, you can’t put items on hold. There’s nothing more annoying than when people put as many things as they can in their cart and just sit on it.

See you there!

If you need an invite email me at Jennifer@BagBliss and I’ll be happy to send one over. (just stay away from the GSH bags. haha)

Calling all men, Gilt Groupe is throwing a John Varvatos shoes & accessory sample sale.

Starts tomorrow, May 5th at 9: am PST / noon is EST

A little change of address…

Eluxury’s next big move towards closing down – removal of Louis Vuitton products.

The last day to shop for Louis Vuitton handbags at eLuxury is set for May 15th.

eLuxury launched in June 2000 by LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton and was the only location online (besides LouisVuitton.com) where authentic LV items were sold, but after getting hit with declining popularity and sales, they announced the closure of the retail portion of the site.

After that date, Louis Vuitton items will only be sold at LouisVuitton.com.

Happy Monday!
