Where can you find the best in designer consignment items such as Pucci, Chanel, Stella McCartney, Luella, Chloe, Tory Burch, and Louis Vuitton? Make it over to the Divorcée Sale, Friday through Sunday at the Pelican Hill Resort in Newport Beach, a charity shopping event featuring coveted resale designer apparel, handbags and fine jewelry, diamonds and pearls at a fraction of their original price.
The concept is a cathartic experience for divorced women to start fresh, shed memories from their former life, and help a much needed cause-- 25% of the proceeds benefit -- Breast Cancer Research Foundation and Meredith Israel, an inspiring advocate for breast cancer survivors.
Founder Jill Alexander isn’t divorced, however she understands fashion (she’s a former Tory Burch manager) and created the Divorcee Sale, a traveling shopping event most recently at the Mondrian Hotel in LA, as way to benefit all: divorcees, charities, and shoppers. The sale is held in the Pacific Ballroom, and valet is complimentary.
The pre-sale starts Friday from 6 to 9 p.m., tickets cost $25, and each guest will receive Champagne and a special gift bag. On Saturday, the sale runs from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., tickets cost $15, and the first 50 purchases will receive a special gift bag; on Sunday, the sale lasts from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., it’s open to the public and the first 25 purchases will receive a special gift bag.
Pelican Hill Resort is at 2701 Pelican Hill Road South in Newport Coast. Purchase tickets at divorceesale.com/buy-tickets.
