Los Angeles' sale scene is ramping up again, thanks to the news of California's June 15 reopening. This week, the DTLA's New Mart building is flinging open its doors for its last Friday sample sale, marking its first multi-showroom shopping event in over a year.
Over in Beverly Hills, 260 Sample Sale's Pam & Gela blowout promises deep discounts on edgy Cali womenswear, tracksuits, and more from former Juicy Couture co-founders Pamela Skaist-Levy and Gela Nash-Taylor. While you're in the 90210, consider hitting up Eclipse's Robertson Boulevard showroom, where you can expect up to 80% off Schutz designer Alexandre Birman's namesake line of celeb-loved luxury footwear (his trend-driven label's sale takes place the following week).
