I’m interrupting my Fashion Week coverage because {cue Oprah voice} Last Call is having a sssaaaaaaaaaallee!! You KNOW I LOVE that place {emphasis on LOVE}, and it’s even better when I can find a killer couture deal! Definitely SOS prescribed.
I’m sharing one of my best kept secrets and telling you all about how to shop at Last Call Neiman Marcus! THIS is a little Fendi number I found on clearance clearance! It was over 80% off the retail price. Psst, I share my shopping secrets after the jump.

Most of you hear me going on and on about LOVING Last Call. It’s the truth! The shopping deities must be with me at Last Call because I’ve found things like a Gucci silk top for $50, Prada dress pants for $110, Tabitha Simmons wedges for $88, and a Valentino skirt for $100. In fact, the YSL Palais pumps I’m wearing were $125. I promise it’s easy to find amazing things in the store. Hopefully, my shopping tips will help you find the deal of the century!
During this visit, my goal was to find a fabulous something for less than $150 since I had a gift card. The Fendi dress I’m wearing originally retailed at Bergdorf Goodman for $990. It was marked down to $239 at Last Call. The green stamp means 30% off and it was an additional 25% off which brings it to $136.
I used the bags in my closet as props for the picture. Mr. S was so embarrassed of me wielding these bags all over the place! LOL! The things you do for blog posts! :)
- Sign up for their email and/or mailing list. You’ll get notifications of upcoming sales and coupons.
- Earn rewards while you are shopping. Get $10 for every $200 spent on your Neiman Marcus or Bergdorf Goodman credit card. This is only if you are comfortable using a store credit card. FYI, I do have a NM card.
- Get to know a sales associate. My lovely lady, Christy, knows that my heart flutters for anything Chanel and gives me a call when a certain double Cs come in the door. She also lets me know about any special sales coming up. Often, items are available for pre-sale so you can nab them before the public knows about it.
- Decide on a dollar amount that you want to spend, then keep your eyes peeled and mind open. There are fabulous deals to be found everywhere.
- If you see something remotely interesting on the hanger, try it on even if it doesn’t look like your taste. You never know what that something can turn into! That Gucci top was draped funny on the hanger, and I found a Balenciaga wrap dress the same way.
- ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS check the clearance section. Green, orange, and blue dots (30%, 50%, 65% off the lowest price) are definitely your friend! That is exactly how I got my dress for less than $150.
Let me show you some of the fantastic things I found in store that day. I was totally crushing on that beautiful green Celine dress!

You look stunning and I love that golden door behind you, I need more glamour in my life!
It looks so glam, but it’s actually an energy building!
PHOAARRRR, Sam! You’ll fit right in London Fashion Week with your awesome outfit. I can’t believe the deals you’d found at Last Call. Chances are next to nil for something similar here!
So jealous!!! There isn’t a Last Call near me :(
BUT I’m the same way, that’s what I do to get my good deals. Go to the clearance section and find the pieces that are even more off! :)

I guess I walk by it without knowing? Definitely checking it out in the next few weeks. Fingers crossed I find something good!
