Nicole Miller’s mega sale

Nicole Miller’s ultra blow out sale comes but twice a year.

Your next opportunity for designer clothes from 50-90% off starts Jan. 15 at the Manayunk and Bellevue locations in Philly. Expect a sale with personal service, as opposed to a free-for-all with jumbles of goods.

It’s retail at its purest. Mark ’em down and move ’em out. Save a passle, with no hassle.

It’s a great opportunity to pick up a frock for an upcoming special occasion — or pick up a dream dress and tuck it away, because we all know how hard it is to find a perfect outfit when we are shopping on deadline. Better to be prepared, darlings.

The deals last until Jan. 31 so don’t delay. If you do, you will have to wait another six months to bag discounts this deep.
