FASHION

AUGUSTINA
Tucked away in Toronto’s most chi-chi alleyway, this winsome boutique is offering up to 50 per cent off summer shoes, bags, and sundresses. A Roberta Freymann tunic ($75) would be perfect for Ward’s beach. 5 Old York Lane, 416-922-4248, augustinaboutiques.com.

BERGSTROM ORIGINALS
Leslieville ladies take note: colour fanatic and print maniac Christina Bergstrom is shaving 30 to 50 per cent off her current collection, and pricing previous seasons’ items to clear. Until Aug. 25. 750 Queen St. E., 416-595-7320, bergstromoriginals.com.

CARTE BLANCHE
The edgy Queen West shop is offering up to 70 per cent off its clothing line, as well as Pink Cobra, Jeremy Scott and other names familiar to the club crowd. 758 Queen St. W., 416-532-0347.

DIVINE DECADENCE
Toronto’s annual Fake Prom is fast approaching, and just in time for everyone who missed out their own (or blacked out), the Yorkville purveyor of vintage dresses both chic and outlandish is holding a half-price sale on all its frocks. (Wedding and art deco gowns exempted.) 28 Cumberland St., 416-324-9759.

JONATHAN AND OLIVIA
The Toronto location of this Vancouver-born company opened on the Ossington strip less than a year ago, and has been outfitting the city’s style mavens in brands like Acne and Opening Ceremony ever since. Now the less deep-pocketed can benefit: the store has marked down men’s and womenswear by up to 70 per cent. 49 Ossington Ave., 416-849-5956, jonathanandolivia.com.

SYDNEY’S
The menswear store is advertising up to 75 per cent off spring and summer, including Band of Outsiders button-down shirts ($100–$125, down from $250) and Dries van Noten suits ($750, down from $1,500). 795 Queen St. W., 416-603-3369, sydneystoronto.com.

UNCLE OTIS
Surface to Air tees ($87, down from $145) are among the items reduced by up to 70 per cent at this end-of-summer sale. 26 Bellair St., 416-920-2281, uncleotis.com.

HOME

AU LIT FINE LINENS and LIVE BY AU LIT
Both locations are hosting their summer White Sale, when bedding is discounted by up to 50 per cent. 2049 Yonge St., 416-489-7010; 418 Eglinton Ave. W., 416-481-2300, livbyaulit.com.

FUTÉ DESIGNS
This furniture shop on an ever-less-dingy strip of Dundas West is holding an inventory clearance sale: everything in the store is discounted, including amazing wicker day-beds and genie chairs. 824 Dundas St. W., 416-762-0167, futedesign.com.

QUASI MODO MODERN
Attention condo dwellers: the modernist, Scandinavian-loving retailer is offering 20 to 60 per cent off its floor samples and stock items, including a Karl Hansen coffee (now $1,200 down from $3000). Until Aug. 31. 789 Queen St. W., 416-703-8300.

ROOMY HOME INTERIORS
In anticipation of its late-August reno, the store has discounted many of its floor models by 25 to 50 per cent. They specialize in space-saving designs for the condo crowd—the kind of customers who appreciate the irony of owning something called the Irony chair ($110, down from $275). They’ve also discounted paintings by the local artist Danielle O’Connor Akiyama and others. 232 King St. E., 416-203-6813, roomy.ca.
