Summer Sale


Summer is one of my favorite seasons. The sun is always out, you can relax by your pool, there are all sorts of fairs and festivals. People are just generally happier in the summer. Or maybe that's just a Chicago thing. All the people frozen solid from the long winter get a chance to thaw and wear less than 5 layers of clothing for at least three months. It is indeed a time to rejoice.


But, sadly, as August comes to a close and all the storefronts are sporting attire in oranges and grays, it is almost time to bid adieu to summer.


There is, however, one thing to brighten my day as I say my farewells to the season, the end of season summer sales. The first I will showcase is from the online designer store net.a.porter.com. Use the code "summer" and get an extra 20% off selected sale items. Below are some of my faves (and Kathy's as she did most of the searching for this post. Thanks, Kath!)
