Stephen Webster Online Sample Sale

We gave a shoutout to sample sale e-commerce site, Gilt Groupe, some weeks back and ever since then we've been compulsively checking out their daily offerings.

We gave a shoutout to sample sale e-commerce site, Gilt Groupe, some weeks back and ever since then we've been compulsively checking out their daily offerings. Yesterday, a Stephen Webster sample sale popped up and we thought to post on it. Jewelry at a discount spells gift-giving if you ask us, not to mention an opportunity to invest in your own collection. Above, our three favorite pieces from the sale.

Urban Outfitters pulled a t-shirt that read "I Support Same Sex Marriage" from shelves just eight days after it landed in stores and online. It was claimed that the shirt spawned too much "bad press" but there's more to this story...

Retailers report that stores are swamped but that most consumers are going for the heavily discounted items rather than slightly discounted gift-able offerings. This, unfortunately, will not help matters.

Doo. Ri has announced the launch of a diffusion line to act in compliment to her ready to wear offerings as seen during New York Fashion Week. The line has yet to be named but is slated to hit stores in 2009.
