Bostonista Shops: OFF 5TH Designer Event

Bostonista needs new outfits for rocking the last of the Fashion Week shows. But we’re already getting catty just thinking about having to scratch and claw to find parking on Newbury Street. Not to mention that every once in a while we like to try on our bargainista hat for size. Here’s how we’ll be racking up designer duds at next to nil (and spending most of the afternoon al fresco). Hightail it to the Wrentham Village Premium Outlets for the Off 5th Designer Event.

The Saks Fifth Avenue outlet’s sale is now open to the public through Tuesday, Sept. 23. Merch within the store is already marked down for a fraction of the price that it sold for at Saks, and shoppers will take an additional 30 to 50 percent off for this event. That means you could get a fabulous luxury label dress for slightly more than the cost of a full-price frock at Zara or Mango. But maybe not quite as economical as our finds at Old Navy or Target…

We don’t have to tell you which brands will be up for grabs, but think women’s designer sportswear from Chanel, Dolce & Gabbana, Prada, St. John, Armani, Marc Jacobs, Piazza Sepione, and many more.

What’s that you say? You don’t have a car to zip on down to Wrentham? We’ve got some advice for you. Get hooked up with a ride to the famous outlets with All Boston Tours. For $35.99, the luxury liner will bring you to and from the famous outlets, and provide you with a coupon book stacked with even more savings opportunities. No parking woes, plenty of overhead and under-bus space for your purchases, and you can get your beauty sleep to and fro!
