Oui, Paris “Soldes” (Sales)
Galleries Lafayette | Paris, France
LA VIE: Let’s cut to the meat of this post… PARIS HAS GREAT SALES (SOLDES)! Now, I can back up and explain a few details: Paris has two major sale seasons - July and January. Sales last about 6 weeks and merchandise is discounted 50-70%.
The good stuff goes quickly so arriving early is important
Luxury items are also on sale, which makes every fashionista feel she can score the 1-2 items she has eyed for sometime
Furniture, luggage, etc. is also marked down and helps for those saving to make large transactions
If you plan a trip to Paris, consider these two timeframes as an option if you want to purchase a lot of great clothes at a great price.
Great places to shop:
*NOTE: all boutiques and designer label stores will have merchandise on sale so there is no need to list them. :)
