No longer are designer sample sales available only to an exclusive circle of fashion industry insiders. One of my top go-to shopping sites, Gilt.com, is the secret to top labels at up to 60% off for men, women and kids as well as luxury deals on home, travel and dining. My picks include a Cynthia Steffe black cocktail dress for $89 (retail $325), a gorgeous Elizabeth Cole Navette Blue Crystal Cluster Ring for $78 (retail $200), a Sally Miller Tween Stripe Dress for $26 (retail $52) and a Kate Spade Sugar Bowl for $58 ($85 retail) that makes a great wedding gift. Sales are limited and first-come, first-served so get there early.  Just for JessicaShops readers, visit www.gilt.com/exclusive/jessicashops where you can spend $75 and get $25 in credits for your next purchase today only (ends 7/1/11). Similar sites like Ruelala.com will also give exclusive access to high-end shopping experiences but you may need to be patient and wait for a slot. It’s definitely worth the wait and it pays to become a member of these sites!
