Spend More Earn More Event at Saks

Saks Spend More Save More, Saks Spend More Save More Sales Event — Saks Spend More Save More Sales Event

As we are all painfully aware, there are many luxury brands that refuse to allow markdowns on their items. Some retailers have found clever ways around this rule. The Saks Fifth Avenue Spend More Earn More events are one of these loopholes. Their way around it? When you spend a certain amount of money, you will earn a gift card toward a future purchase. If you aren’t sure which items apply for this deal, look for the tagline “Spend More, Earn More: Use Code GIFTGCSF” as you are shopping. Yes, even some sale items apply! Brands I spotted that are a part of this promotion include Dolce & Gabbana, Givenchy, Ralph Lauren Collection, Tom Ford, Valentino Garavani, and Versace.

To score this steal, use code GIFTGCSF at checkout. The spending thresholds are:

$50 Promotional Gift Card with your $250 purchase
$100 Promotional Gift Card with your $500 purchase
$200 Promotional Gift Card with your $1000 purchase
$500 Promotional Gift Card with your $2000 purchase

This deal ends on August 24, 2024 so be sure to start shopping if you have items on your wish list! Click HERE to shop SaksFifthAvenue.com.

Phoenix Open House June 3!

phoenix real estate, phoenix open house, luxury home, scottsdale real estate for sale, paradise valley real estate listings — Open House on 6/3, Hosted by your Ancala Realtor!

I’ve been trying to figure out a fun and creative way to officially announce my newest business venture here on Raging Rouge but I’ve consistently come up empty handed. I’ve decided to simply write a post about it because this weekend I am hosting an open house in this GORGEOUS property here in Phoenix Arizona! Naturally, my gorgeous RR readers in the Phoenix area are more than welcome to stop by! We can talk about rouge and Scottsdale real estate while you tour this resort-style property.

The featured home is located at 4355 East Kings Avenue in Phoenix, Arizona… just north of Paradise Valley. It’s 3,614 square feet of gorgeous tucked away in a quiet community in North Phoenix. Within a five mile radius of this home you can find: high end dining, tremendous amounts of shopping, golf courses, spas… it’s also a great choice for commuters because it has easy access to both the 101 and 51!

Over the past 15 years or so, I’ve kicked around the idea of studying for my real estate license. The major hurdle to my pursuit was the in-person and set hours requirements of the classes! As virtual options cropped up for the classes, as well as the ability to set your own schedule, suddenly this goal was easier to pursue! I started working as an agent full-time in March of 2023 and have been loving every minute of it. I’ve been working hard to develop my vision of what I’d like to do in this business, and I’ll be sure to tell you all about it when it’s live, but in the meanwhile I’d love it if you surf on over to AZRealtySearch.com to sign up for a complimentary market report or a home valuation! The analytical tools my broker provides to make an educated decision on your property are second to none.

YES the deals are always this compelling that that is exactly what keeps beauty aficionados surfing back to the site over and over again during this event.

Now Ulta could easily hide what items are up and coming, forcing us all to visit the site daily if we went to partake in the shopping fun. That’s not how they roll! If you visit their homepage and scroll down, you can see all of the upcoming deals for the entire duration of the sale, and mark your calendar so you don’t miss out on the items you absolutely need!

What will I be stocking up on? These sales are usually a great opportunity for some mascara sampling. On April 1st Lancome Lash Idole mascaras will be 50% off so I’ll likely be grabbing a couple of them. Tarte Maneater Mascara is 50% off today, and Too Faced Better Than Sex mascaras will also be 50% off during the sale. IT Airbrush Foundation Brushes at 50% off are a must have if you don’t own any. IT Cosmetics makes the best makeup brushes, hands down! I’m a big fan of Peter Thomas Roth so I’ll be visiting Ulta on 3/24 to check out the surprise steal, and the Shiseido Ultimate Sun Protector Lotion sunscreen on 3/27 at 50% off is a great buy for anyone with an upcoming spring break vacation!

Throwback-fashion is really hot right now, particularly among young people who didn’t live through the 90s or early ‘naughts. This adorable Kate Spade minimalist nylon bag is very similar to the bag that most of my friends first purchased when the brand was in its infancy. Sized for essentials only, devoid of flashy hardware, and available in this fun pop of green. Retail price is $178 but you can find it for $66.75 at Saks Fifth Avenue.
The Salvatore Ferragamo Large Gancio Quilting Shoulder Bag is a classic, elegant design that is also versatile! The strap can convert from a long shoulder bag to a doubled-up strap. Original retail price was $1,440 but it can be yours for $865 at Bloomingdale’s!
I know so many frequent travelers who simply love the packable, versatile Longchamp Le Pliage Tote. This small tote may not function as well for overflow purchases while traveling, but what an adorable flex purse to have on hand! Original retail was $125, now $31 at Neiman Marcus.
If you are in search of a roomy new wallet, this Tory Burch Miller Logo Wallet Crossbody Bag fits the bill! It comes with a detachable cross-body strap, for those days you want to travel light. Original retail was $328, now $82 at Neiman Marcus.
Speaking of minimalist and small, this crescent-shaped Burberry Olympia Check Pouch Shoulder Bag is the exact kind of bag I loved to carry back when I had to drag around a heavy work tote and a laptop. Big enough for a lipstick, phone, and wallet, this tiny little shoulder bag won’t weigh you down. What a discount too! Original Retail $860, now $339 at Neiman Marcus.
This Versace Now Virtus Print Quilted Silk Twill Shoulder Bag has an heirloom look to it, as if you inherited the item from a very stylish grandmother. The quilted silk bag is ideal for evening wear and can be worn on the shoulder or converted to a clutch. Original price was $1,050 but is now $630 at Nordstrom.
