Sample Sale (Moms come alone!)

I am selfish sometimes, I will admit it.  Last week I got wind of something really great happening in Charlotte and I kept it to myself.  Aside from a a few close friends I didn't breath a word of it to anyone and all for one reason...I wanted first dibs.  Being the third child I am not always great at sharing because I have always had to take hand-me-downs and fight for anything just for my own.  But enough with my excuses already...I went and had my fun and now I will share it with the rest of you.

I knew a girl growing up that has gone on to become a well-known handbag designer.  She is the real deal, living in LA and has now branched into jewelry.  Heather Hawkins makes awesome leather clutches and such and when she tells me about a sample sale AND says it beats all the ones she has gone to in LA I don't take my time getting to it.  She told me about this sample sale going on here this week and I checked it out tonight.  True to what she said, it is held in a lady's house and the downstairs in full of racks of designer clothes.  There is Ella Moss, Splendid, William Rast, Seven for all Mankind, Beth Bowley, Tart, *Heather Hawkins*, and a lot more!!  There are jeans, dresses, tanks, jewelry, and coats.  The sizes and prices vary.  


You literally shop in this lady's home, even using her bedrooms for make shift dressing rooms.  Make sure to wear clothes that are easy to get in and out of and it is CASH or CHECK only!  The sale will go on all week.  I was fairly impressed...I found a lot of things to try on but didn't end up buying much.  I will say that when I heard sample sale I was thinking prices under $50 but there were definitely things higher than that.  Overall I think it is worth a visit, especially since there is so much and a range of styles.  Here is the address and hours:
