Super Saturday was HOT….literally. It was a gazillion degrees outside and there was hardly any shelter from the sun. Still, it was a fun day and the heat didn’t stop me from shopping up storm to help raise money for a really great cause. Aside from many incredible fashion finds, there were lots of great products for the home available at Super Saturday too. Here’s a little peek at some of the many items that could be had for a song at this year’s event:

I was dying for the new Dyson Animal hand vacuum which was marked down to just $90 (originally $199)! Sadly, every single vacuum cleaner at the booth including the display models were sold in the first 30 minutes of the event! And I thought all the frenzy would be over Rachel Zoe’s booth!

Celebrity stylist Rachel Zoe’s had a booth with lots of incredible clothes and accessories that were donated by Rachel herself as well as by many of her celebrity friends and clients. Above is a photo of a shopper perusing the racks. There were lots of amazing things… Temperley dresses, gorgeous Valentino gowns and quite a few pairs of Guiseppe Zanotti shoes.

There were also plenty of bags from Rachel Zoe’s exclusive Judith Leiber handbag collection for sale. The funny thing is that I was expecting her booth to be a mad house but it wasn’t nearly as crazy as I
expected…it was actually quite civilized!


Cottages and Gardens Publications also had a booth…as you can see there were lots of chevron printed floor cushions for sale as well as a great selection of throw pillows, design books, dishware and other stylish accessories for the home.

I was excited to dicover that Dwell Studio was at Super Saturday this year. They had current season sheet sets and duvet covers for more than half off…and the prices were marked down even further as the day progressed…

Dwell Studio also had an interactive theater tent for kids…very cute!

I also stopped at the booth of Madewell, the new line by J. Crew. They had quite a colorful array of jeans on display…

One of my favorite booths at the event was Smythson of Bond Street. There I picked up a beautiful ivory colored French wallet in croc printed leather as well as a red leather key fob and an aqua colored business card holder…all at prices far below retail!

I know my mom would have loved this booth. St. John, whose prices are astronomical at retail, had pieces available at serious markdowns. Their jackets which normally range between $1-2000 were on sale at Super Saturday for $595! Still expensive but a great deal compared to what they usually cost!

There was also an amazing raffle with prizes like this Chanel bag which I would have loved to win!

Here’s another great raffle prize. Gucci Python…what more can I say?!At the end of the day I left with my goodies from Smythson, a few great dresses from Diane von Furstenberg, Twinkle and Sunner, a pair of Spanx and some really cute swimsuits from Victoria’s Secret. Super Saturday did not disappoint!
