REAL Calypso on clearance...

For those of you who found the Calypso St. Barth for Target collection lacking the quality or variety of their full-priced line, then here's your chance to nab the "real" at a "deal". Calypso St. Barth is having a "Sample Sale" on their web site, and if you type the promo code SAMPLESALE at checkout, you'll get an extra 50% off the clearance price. Note that all sales are final, and sizes are limited. And even with an extra 50% off, most items are still more expensive than the Target line, although there are some bargains if you hunt for them (like this cute "Elba" skirt, which was originally $135, marked down to $29, and ends up just $14.50 with the additional discount).

I find it interesting that the collection is mostly muted, concentrating on whites, tans, beiges and blues (as shown here) with only the occasional "pop" of color like coral and turquoise. Very different from the Target line, which revolved around tropical brights.
