Best Dresses - Anthropologie, Loft.......

Do you have a summer uniform?  I do - I love the simplicity of throwing on a dress and being ready to go out the door.  A true workhorse will work for day with a pair of gladiator sandals, and segue into cocktails with a simple upgrade to heels and a clutch.

These pretty numbers caught my eye..... The six above are from Ann Taylor Loft and range in price from $49.50 to $89.50. Their maxi dress is ideal if you are on the shorter side and don't want to be drowning in fabric.  Get ready for those 30% to 40% off reductions from Loft......

I know a lot of you are Anthropologie fans - How perfect is that print for 4th of July....
Prices range from $68 to $158.

Finally - summer is a time of travel, these jersey dresses from White House Black Market pack easily
and look ready for anything, dinner, a wedding perhaps?  $98 and $128 repectively.

Reader Request - Men's Designer Shoes

We had a great request from a very well-dressed male reader who wanted to know where to score markdowns on Gucci or Ferragamo dress shoes.  Indeed both are great choices which are sure to bring years of wear.  Sometimes your best bet with brands like these is to stalk the racks at Saks/Neiman's/Nordstrom and the like during their big sales.  These babies are a hit and don't make it to outlet or even online that often.  That being said we know two places you can find them for less...


DSW carries a small Gucci selection

They have this handsome shoe in a wide size range $249.95. Sign up online and get free shipping.

Bluefly is a good resource also carrying a larger selection of brands, plus no sales tax peeps.

Ferragamo, Gucci, Tods at Bluefly



Whilst the savings are not huge....20% off, but factor in no sales tax and some coupon codes we found for $30 off $150 purchase it adds up.

Codes CCABIN30 or AFF30.

If you can hold out Gucci has an online pre-sale twice a year where you can save approx. 30-40%, so stay tuned for that.
