Nothing excites us quite like the idea of a dollar sale...especially a dollar sale involving designer garb. And that's exactly the type of event that is currently going down at iconic, old-school S.F. retailer Wilkes Bashford. The company is making room for new fall wares by offering a Buy One, Get One For $1 sale on all spring and summer merch, which has already been discounted 40 to 60%! While we can't say we know exactly what's hanging on the racks over there, we do know that the shop stocks a bunch of Sonia Rykiel, Jean Paul Gaultier, Michael Kors, and shoes by Christian Louboutin and Jimmy Choo that are now 50% off! The dollar sale—which is happening at both the S.F. and Palo Alto locations—lasts for two weeks, but we suggest you get there sooner rather than later.
Wilkes Bashford, 375 Sutter Street (between Grant Avenue and Stockton Street), San Francisco; 415-986-4380; 450 Stanford Shopping Center, Palo Alto, 415-322-7080.
