Shop 'til You Drop: Stroll For Sales in the Autumn Air
Fall continues to be all about change. Settling into a slower pace, my senses are awakened. The water of Shinnecock Bay seems a brighter blue, the village green even seems greener. Biting into a crisp apple hand-picked from a farm on the North Fork amidst the aromas of cinnamon-cider donuts and roasted corn, feeling direct warmth from the sunlight—it’s all heavenly. It’s not surprising that the editorial staff at Dan’s is in search of the perfect PSL (pumpkin spice latte, that is) and the best local pumpkin brew. While no one wanted summer to end, we’re becoming okay with it. Personally, I’m embracing it. It’s a wonderful time of year to stroll through town, PSL in hand, and scope out the sales.
This week, I’m hitting up Southampton. A good place to start for all you sales-savvy shoppers is C. Wonder. Since they’re closing for the season in a couple of weeks, you’d better hurry on over to take part in their 30% off everything sale. Give your wardrobe a little punch of color with one of their cardigans, blouses or bright-hued jeans. Be sure to check out all the cute home and gift stuff in the back! 5 Main St., Southampton. Call 631-287-2645 or visit cwonder.com.
Across the street at Renaissance Boutique they’re having a 50% off sale. It’s the perfect time to pick up one of their long, cozy sweaters, dresses or unique jewelry. 42 Main St., Southampton. Call 631-287-6320.
Walk on up to Isaac Mizrahi for another 50% off sale. It’s a pop-up, so pop on over soon. isaacmizrahiny.com.
Flying Point Surf & Sport and Surf & Skate are both having huge sales. Check out the sidewalk offerings outside the skate shop for boy’s and men’s hoodies and tees. Inside both shops, the sales continue with 50% off all men’s, women’s and children’s shorts, major knockdowns on all swimwear, sandals, surfboards and sunglasses. Not to mention all the umbrellas and beach gear! Flying Point Surf & Sport, 79 Main Street Southampton. Call 631-353-3168 or visit flyingpointsurf.com.
If you’re a Southamptonite but don’t own any gear supporting your hometown, now’s the time to grab some cozy “Southampton” loungewear from Breezin’ Up. There’s a 50% off sale on select items. Stop by at 43 Main St., call 631-283-5680 or visit breezinup.com.
Take a break from all the shopping with a refreshing juice or smoothie from Second Nature Markets, appropriate for that fall cleanse you’ve been thinking of doing. A simple way of starting to bring about good changes is just by opting for nourishing foods. While they’re preparing the smoothie of your choice, stock up on your Ezekiel bread, raw almond butter, organic apples, goat yogurts, raw pumpkin seeds and maybe even some Dr. Hauschka Rose Day Creme. Second Nature Markets, 70 Main St. Call 631-283-8177 or visit secondnaturemarkets.com.
On your way to checking out the sales up on Hill Street (across from the movie theater), take a peek in Tripoli Gallery and allow yourself to be immersed in the beautiful colors of Eric Freeman’s new paintings. The Gallery is at 30 Jobs Lane, right next to Jildor where you can take a peek at all the new fall footwear!
Up on Hill Street, you’ll find the sales continue. Sunrise To Sunset is having buy-one-get-one-free on ladies swimwear, 30–70% off summer sportwear, 40–70% off men’s trunks, and 15% off all fall fashion. Stop by at 36 Hill St., call 631-283-2929 or visit sunrisetosunsetny.com.
