It’s the most wonderful time of the year… Don’t you love that song? The Shop Tart does. And it really is the most wonderful time of the year, with all that holiday cheer. And the sales, oh mercy, the sales. Believe it or not, the Shop Tart shops late every single year. She craves the excitement, that adrenaline rush when you find the perfect gift for someone and it’s on sale, because you waited until the last possible minute. Hooray!
Like a trained athlete, she’ll start her day with a healthy breakfast (soft-boiled egg, coffee and an apple) and get ready to hit the ground running, stopping for coffee along the way at her favorite spots, of course. And lunch…and maybe a glass of wine…and a snack or three…
Ready, set, go!
- Get 50% off capes and skirts at LaRoque and 20% off the rest of the store. Perfect for last-minute holiday wear!
- Simply Savory is having their free wine tasting today, from 4:30 to 6:30. One of the wines is a bubbly Prosecco, a Shop Tart favorite for entertaining. Have you tried their lunch yet? Yum! The Shop Tart needs to explore the rest of the menu, though…so far she can’t resist the Wild Italian Salad.
- Get 20% off your purchase at Kicks with a donation to the Children’s Garden.
- The party’s almost over at Tullulah. The shop will be closing forever on Christmas Eve. Owner Kristy Ray Quattrone will be saying goodbye to customers on Christmas Eve with Champagne - so stop by for a glass. Everything in the store will be heavily discounted.
- Tickled pink is also having a closing sale. Head on in for unbelievable discounts!
- KD’s Treehouse will be open today (Monday is usually their day off) for last minute shoppers. They have the biggest collection of Plan Toys the Shop Tart has ever seen.
- Need more kid gifts? BeBeep, according to Mr. Shop Tart, is still well-stocked with Lego’s and anything else you might want. Creative Kids in Five Points is another great spot - they have excellent riding toys and even few pogo sticks left. Did you know Pogo Sticks were all the rave again? or so the Shop Tart’s seven-year-old tells her (repeatedly.) Don’t forget the Cotton Mill Exchange, the shop at the State Museum. They have super-cool gifts for kids.
- Coplon’s “Warehouse Sale” is most definitely worth a look. Merchandise from past seasons is discounted 80%…and a $1000 Armani jacket never really goes out of style, now does it? The Shop Tart also spotted a gold Jimmy Choo evening bag…and Lanvin pants…and Marc Jacobs pants…and a Mayle dress… The sale on merchandise from this season isn’t too shabby, either! Coplon’s is also featuring beautiful jewelry from Jude Frances right now.
- Remember that Pout will add $25 to every gift certificate over $75. And a gift certificate from Pout is sure to please!
- Enjoy 30 and 50% off all merchandise at Just the Thing until Christmas Eve.
- Revente’s Winter Clearance Sale is in full swing. All winter clothing has been reduced 50%.
- M Boutique is offering 25% off all cocktail clothes.
- VanJean’s sale is still fab. The Shop Tart is seriously considering that heavily discounted Phillip Lim evening gown for the Museum Gala in February.
- Speaking of the Museum, their gift shop is a great spot for special gifts, in all price ranges.
- Sophie Shoes is offering 50% off shoes.
- Winter merchandise at Tiny Treasures is 70% off and, until December 27th, take an extra 10% off all Fall and Holiday clearance and 20% off New 2009 Spring and Summer merchandise.
- Ready to take better care of your adorable self? City Yoga is offering free classes from December 29th to January 4th. This is a great way to experiment with Yoga and start a new habit for the New Year. Mark your calender.
- Still looking for ways to give back? Take a look at the list on the Shop Tart’s other blog (the one with all the cuss words…) A donation made in someone’s name to a charity near and dear to their heart is always the perfect gift. Bonus: You get the tax deduction! Mwah!
