Thursday night there will be a Renee Larson jewelry trunk show at Bébé Babble (6 p.m., 3904 Sunnyside Rd., Edina, 952-922-2020). Check out the bright, fun, reasonably priced vintage-inspired baubles, such as the bracelet below, and meet the designer.

It's time for end-of-season sales, which is especially great because you can wear these deals now. At Picky Girl (949 Grand Av., St. Paul, 651-698-4107), get 25 percent off regular-priced tops, shorts, skirts and shoes; 30 percent off dresses and 50 percent off handbags. At Intoto (3105 Hennepin Av. S., Mpls., 612-822-2414), final markdowns have been taken. So shop until it's gone. Stephanie's progressive sale gets you 20 percent off one item, 30 percent off two, 40 percent off three and 50 percent off four or more. That includes scarves, designer jeans, tees and dresses at both locations (5005 France Av. S., Mpls., 612-929-2087 and 758 S. Cleveland Av., St. Paul, 651-690-3802).

After you're worn out from bargain hunting, get a relaxing deal at ReJoovMe (3826 Grand Way, St. Louis Park, 952-285-2993). A 60-minute float during the month of July is half off ($32.50; regularly $65).

On Sunday, you might pull some of your new duds out of the closet and take on the red carpet at the Starkey Hearing Foundation's "So the World May Hear" benefit. At RiverCentre (2:30 p.m., 175 W. Kellogg Blvd., St. Paul), you'll be able to see the celebrities, L.A.-style, for free. Bring your camera to catch a glimpse of Billy Crystal, Lou Ferrigno, Arnold Palmer and Norm Crosby. There's a chance that Gladys Knight and Tony Bennett might walk the carpet, too.

Through July 26, Styledlife (Galleria, Edina, 952-928-8888) is offering vintage pieces from around the world for its third annual vintage glam event. Look for the accessories store to move to the space formerly occupied by Kuhlman in October.

The end of the "it bag" has been declared by the fashion world, except that it hasn't died, really. The New York Times reported this past spring that this Alexander Wang studded shoulder bag from the fall collection had been selling out before it even hit stores. Well, it just landed locally at Pumpz & Co. (Galleria, Edina, 952-926-2252). Last year, Wang won the prestigious CFDA/Fashion Fund Award and this year he took home the Swarovski Award for Womenswear.
