You know it's rare for me to post samples sales, but I've been doing it a bit more as of late given the state of economy and, if someone sends me something super hot, I can't pass it up.

At what I hear was the sample sale to end all sample sales this past fall, cooler-than-thou New York showroom 495 News knocked 'em dead with pieces low, low prices, including $10 Cheap Mondays!! Well, they're at it again.

All you dangerously thing guys and girls out there listen up: certain styles of Cheap Mondays skinny jeans are back for the amazingly low price of $10. $10! Less than the price of a glass of wine or a bowl of ramen, but you guys don't eat anyway.

And that's not all. Also from Cheap Monday, you'll find faux leather shorts and skirts for $40, leather elbow length gloves for $30, men's striped sweatshirts for $35, and dresses for $35.

From the super sexy, super soft tee line Clu: signature soft cotton tees and silk blouses for $20 - $30; sweatshirts, leggings and tanks for $10-$30, and cotton/silk combination dresses for $40. If you knew their usual retail price point, you'd start lining up today.

And don't miss the cashmere sweaters, scarves, and dresses from Millions of Smiles priced between $50 and $190 and chic, chic cocktail dresses, leather jackets, and winter jackets from Sea.

Don't miss it.
