Just in time for Valentine's Day, Kiki de Montparnasse is having a sample sale. The high-end lingerie is always a favorite -- for giving, receiving, or simply buying for yourself when you don't have a Valentine.

The selection was pretty robust: there was everything to pretty, girly bras, panties, babydoll camisoles; loungewear in soft cotton; and black lingerie catering to?uh, more prurient interests. And some adult accessories, wink wink, nudge nudge. Pretty good selection of sizes, but sadly, most of the boxy tees and loungey tops were only present in XS and XXS. The prices are significantly discounted: longline bras with attached garters for $100, loungewear starting around $40, babydoll tops for $100, robes starting around $150. The sale only goes through Wednesday, so might we suggest you step on it?
