Attention luxury shoppers, this is your week. Our designer sale roundup is out of control!

The Net-A-Porter End Of Season Sale is happening now. Shoppers enjoy up to 50% off high-end designer clothing, shoes and accessories. Fill your shopping cart with treasures from YSL, Miu Miu, Louboutin, and more! The $$ savings simply can’t be beat.

Shopbop has recently marked down hundreds of items from their Designer Boutique. Save 30%-70% on Thakoon, Alexander Wang, Derek Lam and more. Plus, as always, enjoy free shipping and free returns. Score!

The Barneys New York Spring Sale, always much anticipated, has finally arrived! Save up to 40% off original price on luxury favorites for men and women like Commes des Garcons, Alexander McQueen, Balmain…the list goes on and on. But the sales don’t! So hurry and shop to it while supplies last.

With royal wedding fever spreading like wildfire, we’ll admit we’ve fallen victim to the excitement. Here are a handful of nuptial-inspired pieces we’ve selected in honor of this fancy schmancy day:

So, tell us, which pick do you find most fit for a queen — the ABS evening gown, Calvin Klein strappy sandals, or the satin shoes by Vera Wang?

This past weekend fans and aspiring reality stars flocked to the Reality Rocks Expo in Los Angeles. One of our favorite faces of reality was in attendance—the always charming and sweetly styled Jillian Harris of Extreme Home Makeover: Home Edition and Bachelorette fame.

When Jilly told us she was searching her Salemail for a few things to wear to the event—we couldn’t help but hook her up with a handful of pieces. This adorable sequin clutch by BCBGMAXAZRIA included! While we were at it, we asked her to dish on sales and spring style.

What are your favorite brands to wear when you’re at work on TV or when you’re kicking back in your “normal life”?  Are there brands that you think stylish women should really be loving right now?

I wear Aritzia, Joe Fresh, Target, Forever 21 when I’m on set – my stuff gets dirty so I try to shop inexpensively! Other than that I love Haute Hippie, Shoshanna, Michael Kors, Alice + Olivia, and Jay Godfrey.  I think women should find what suits their personality and shop within their budget.  My only rule is to keep it classy.  If you’re going to show legs…don’t show cleavage, and if you’re going to show a little cleavage, cover your legs.

Are you a “sale” girl?  What are your tips and tricks for sale shopping?

120% I try to splurge on items I will have for a while, especially jeans and purses.  But trendy items I must get on sale or from Forever 21, Target or Joe Fresh. Shop It To Me is both good for the high end items and the low end so you can kill two birds with one stone, so to speak!

Finally, what are you lusting this spring?

We asked our Twitter followers, and they spoke on the styles they loved most from 2010. Here are some of our favorites:

• diabolina: ombré hair, kitten heels, leopard print, maxi skirts
• iheartheels: Wedge booties by far. Add shearling, even better
• BiattaIntimates: Bodysuits
• smitus: I love the menswear trend of 2010 & hope it continues
• DanielleDiDit: The poof!
• frugalista: gray nail polish!
• ModelinaM: I like the long tunic look
