Top Sale this Week

Cynthia Rowley’s brand rather famously pairs whimsy with sophistication, which is just the dearest description, so get your whimsical yet sophisticated self over to the eponymous shop’s sample sale at 1653 North Damen Avenue. The markdowns are intense—fall and winter items will sell for about 80 percent off, which means you can buy a $400 Pique Jacket for $79 or a $400 Leaf Applique Dress for $60. Stop by today through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., or Sunday from noon to 6 p.m.
