OMG

DO NOT MISS THIS!!!

Refinery 29's Port Authority Pop-up Store opened today and runs for the next week. The "about as secret as a sample sale in nyc can get" sample sale features unique designers like Rick Owens marked down to the kind of prices you have to hear twice to believe. In fact, if nymag's fashion blog The Cut didnt print an announcement, we might not think this is true.

This could signal a new wave in the new york retail experience. Sample Sales have always been a staple, but as they become more prevalent and legitimate we might find less fashionistas window shopping, instead opting to save their pennies for these magical moments.
