Your shopping guides rock, as usual:) It looks like you will have to branch out, as people want more of your chic-onomic shopping 101, but this time in the grown-up department:) Oh, Suzanne, thank you so much for this detailed report.

And, there is so much MORE for women! If I didn't live so far away, I would take a whole second day just for myself. Every year, I take stock in what I need/want, so I go in with a focus -- not dissimilar than the approach I take for kids shopping at the sale. This helps me from making too many spontaneous purchases and focuses priorities as to which department(s) to hit first. This year, I hit Shoes, then Coats, then Athletic Wear, then Lingerie, and finally Apparel. I really wanted some new shoes, so I went there first. Over the past 10 years, I have purchased ankle boots at this sale (probably 7 out of 10 sales) -- I wear them a lot each Fall and Winter. I'm ready for a new updated pair, but this year I was disappointed that they didn't have any I liked :( Departments I love to shop just for fun are Jewelry, Handbags, Accessories. There are some excellent buys here on items that rarely go on sale, and I love to see the new styles. e.g. it's a great time to buy a cashmere scarf or wrap if you are in the market (these won't be on sale elsewhere until very late in the season). A trip through Cosmetics can be fun too. If you are interested in splurging on some big names, as with children's clothing, now is the time to try them out... such as Tory Burch, Elle Tahari, Trina Turk, Michael Kors, Nordstrom Classique's Entre line anything in the designer shoe department, like Pliner. Each department will have unpublished deals too. Hope this helps! Suzanne Interesting question… my own shopping usually takes a back seat to shopping for my kids and husband.
