If nothing — not even a global virus outbreak — can stop you from discount-happy retail therapy, then you've got plenty to keep you busy this week. While it might not be safe to hop on an international flight just yet, you can at least give your luggage a stylish upgrade at Calpak's sample sale, where you can expect up to 70% off the SoCal-based travel brand's fashionable suitcases and accessories.
For your wardrobe, U.K.-born fast fashion label PrettyLittleThing's one-day sample sale (where all you need is $10 cash and serious patience) is expected to draw a major crowd at its usually-influencer-only showroom on Melrose. If you're looking to get really spendy, Swiss luxury label Bally's L.A. blowout in Beverly Hills promises leather footwear for $100 to $150 and bags for under $400, to name just a few.
Cool concept boutique Alchemy Works and Apolis are both dropping major deals in Downtown (yes, there'll be markdowns on those market bags) alongside cult-cool Collected Group-owned trio Current/Elliott, Equipment, and Joie, which are also hosting a weekend-long sale in DTLA where nothing will be over $45. Elsewhere, fitness fiends can stock up on urban activewear brand RYU's gear on the other side of town in Venice.
Keep reading for more details on the rest of this week's best L.A. sample sales.
