I work at Gilt Groupe, a flash sale fashion monolith, based in New York. This means I have my finger on the trigger when hot designer items find their way into a roughly 40% off members-only stash on Gilt.com. Along the way, I’ll be sharing my recent well-thought-out purchases and rash impulse buys. Feel free to let me know if I’ve made a fashion faux pas or stumbled upon a once-in-a-blue-moon steal.

Below you’ll scout the latest of Gilt’s flash sale treasures, starting with a Rosegold Nicky Booty in black (these pretty much look like my Colonial Madness boots from two or three seasons ago except with different bells and whistles; I can’t help it, I like what I like).

I also snagged a pair of Marc by Marc Jacobs Super Stretch Denim Leggings, which might turn out to be a fashion faux pas, if I don’t start doing my Bar Method workout DVDs more regularly. Marc by Marc Jacobs Super Stretch Legging Gilty Shopping
And, last but not least, an angelic Line & Dot fur vest with a hood – super steal! Still working on the right outfit that pins these three together. One thing’s for sure, unless I run away to the  circus strip club to turn my lifelong dream into go-go dancer reality, I’m going to need a top to finish the outfit. Let the shopping begin!

With fireworks lighting the July 4th sky, this long weekend will be especially magical. I’m looking forward to blueberry cocktails, fishtail braids, pretty wedges, wearing sunglasses all weekend, road trip snacks, and sparklers, tons and tons of sparklers.
