March is moving fast, and so is the markdown calendar. From a celebrity-loved eco-fashion brand unloading signature dresses on Robertson Boulevard to a furniture warehouse in Rancho Dominguez clearing out floor models nobody could commit to, L.A. and Orange County are stacked with in-person sample sales worth rearranging your week for. Here's where to go, what to expect, and how to get in without standing in the wrong line.

1. Reformation at Eclipse (West Hollywood)

The Reformation sample sale ran Wednesday, March 11 through Wednesday, March 18, at 315 S. Robertson Blvd, West Hollywood, CA 90048, open Monday through Saturday from 10 AM to 6 PM and Sunday from 10 AM to 5 PM. Shoppers could score Reformation's signature effortless dresses, cool-girl denim, and everyday staples at up to 80% off retail. The sale featured sustainable and feminine wardrobe staples from Reformation at Eclipse in West Hollywood, including signature dresses from occasion-ready to everyday chic, flattering tops, blouses, knitwear, tailored pants, denim, skirts, romantic prints, soft neutrals, and versatile layering pieces, with limited quantities available. Entry was free, but organized into three lines: VIP Members could skip the line with a valid Eclipse VIP Membership; registered guests received priority via the RSVP line; and public walk-ins were admitted as space allowed, with admission prioritized in that order and subject to capacity. Before heading over, know that Eclipse runs a strict no-cash policy and all sales are final at these events, and with no fitting rooms available, wearing easy layers is the smartest move you can make.

2. The Elder Statesman (Beverly Hills)

While Reformation's sale closed March 18, The Elder Statesman's Beverly Hills sample sale picked up right where it left off, running March 18 through 22 with deep discounts on the brand's luxe cashmere and knitwear staples. If you were already in the neighborhood, UncoverLA pointed out that 260LA's nearby outpost also had major markdowns on Elder Statesman pieces running concurrently. No street address for the 260LA outpost was confirmed in available listings, so call ahead before making the trip specifically for that secondary location. What's not in question: this is one of the few times Elder Statesman's investment-grade cashmere gets anywhere near an accessible price point, and the Beverly Hills window is tight.

3. Rove Concepts Warehouse Sale (Rancho Dominguez)

The Rove Concepts Warehouse Sale offered discounts of 30 to 60% on open-box, modern home furniture, with only 4 hours to shop open-box returns, floor models, slightly damaged tables, chairs, sofas, accent pieces, and more. UncoverLA described the inventory as open-box returns, floor models, and "buyer's remorse pieces" at up to 60% off, happening at the brand's Rancho Dominguez HQ. Only credit card payments are accepted, and discounts can range from 30% to 80% off retail price. All items are final sale, sold "as is," without warranty, returns, exchanges, or price adjustments, so thorough inspection before leaving the warehouse is essential. If you're in the market for a sofa or accent piece at a serious discount, this is the kind of sale where patience and a big car trunk pay off equally.

4. L*Space and Multi-Brand Warehouse Sale at Alternative Retail (Tustin)

One of the most logistically satisfying setups on this list. The L*Space multi-brand warehouse sale ran Thursday, March 19 through Sunday, March 22, from 10 AM to 6 PM daily, at Alternative Retail Inc., 2227 Park Ave., Tustin, 92780. The deal: up to 75% off L*Space's bikinis, one-piece swimsuits, activewear, dresses, and cover-ups, alongside kids' and baby clothing from Miki Miette, Magnetic Me, Tiny Whales, and others. Bags and backpacks are not allowed inside, but free parking is available. Reserve a one-hour shopping slot via Eventbrite in advance, and note that an RSVP for any single brand gets you access to the entire multi-brand event. That's a detail worth flagging: you don't need to RSVP separately for each brand, just pick one and you're in for everything.

5. BYLT Basics Warehouse Sale (Corona)

Running March 19 through 22, BYLT Basics brought its warehouse sale to Alternative Retail in Corona, CA, with up to 75% off retail on premium men's and women's apparel including t-shirts, pants, joggers, outerwear, and accessories. BYLT's staple is its soft, structured basics that sit somewhere between gym wear and elevated casual, making this the kind of sale where stocking up for the season actually makes sense at these prices.

6. MIKOH Warehouse Sale (Carlsbad)

Also running March 19 through 22, MIKOH's warehouse sale hit Alternative Retail in Carlsbad with up to 80% off retail on a curated selection of bikinis, one-pieces, cover-ups, and dresses. MIKOH's aesthetic is low-key minimalist surf: the kind of swimwear that photographs well and actually holds up in the water. At 80% off, pieces that retail at $200-plus become genuinely accessible, and with summer in Southern California arriving ahead of schedule, this is worth the Carlsbad drive.

7. Dr.

Martens Warehouse Sale (Carlsbad, SALE EXTENDED)

The Dr. Martens sale at Alternative Retail in Carlsbad, also running March 19 through 22, came with a notable status update: SALE EXTENDED + NEW PRICE DROPS, meaning inventory that didn't clear in the initial run got marked down further. Dr. Martens' classic silhouettes don't go on sale often, and when they do the sizes go fast. No single discount percentage was listed, but extended sales with fresh price drops typically signal the best selection of the entire run is available in the final days.

8. Linksoul Warehouse Sale (Carlsbad)

Linksoul, the golf-adjacent lifestyle brand built around casual luxury and modern performance, ran its warehouse sale at Alternative Retail in Carlsbad from March 19 through 22, with up to 70% off retail on men's and women's apparel. It's a niche pick, but if your wardrobe overlaps at all with the technical-meets-relaxed aesthetic that's been creeping off the course and onto the street, Linksoul's markdowns are worth stacking alongside a MIKOH or Dr. Martens run in the same trip, since all three are in Carlsbad for the same dates.

9. Cuts Warehouse Sale (Carlsbad)

Cuts, known for its PYCA Pro fabric and precision-cut elevated basics, brought up to 70% off men's and women's premium apparel to Alternative Retail in Carlsbad, March 19 through 22. The brand's short sleeves, long sleeves, and hoodies are engineered for movement but styled for going anywhere, and at 70% off they're priced closer to fast fashion with none of the construction compromises. Another strong case for doing the whole Carlsbad circuit in a single afternoon.

10. Boll & Branch Warehouse Sale (Tustin)

Boll & Branch, the premium bedding and home textiles brand, ran its warehouse sale at Alternative Retail in Tustin from March 19 through 22. No specific discount percentage was listed for this event, but Boll & Branch's direct-to-consumer pricing already cuts out retail markup, making warehouse sale prices a genuine departure from what you'd find anywhere else. If you're staging the Tustin stop for L*Space anyway, the Boll & Branch event is in the same location.

11. Kids' Multi-Brand Warehouse Sale (Tustin)

Also at Alternative Retail's Tustin space, running March 19 through 22, the Kids' Multi-Brand Warehouse Sale brought together Magnetic Me, Dreamland Baby, Feather 4 Arrow, Tiny Whales, and Miki Miette, with up to 80% off retail on baby and kids' essentials. These are brands that rarely discount deeply through traditional retail channels. For anyone shopping for the under-5 set, this sale and the L*Space event at the same address make Tustin the most practical single-stop of the entire month.

12. California Market Center Monthly Sample Sale (DTLA)

The last major sale on the March calendar: the California Market Center's monthly sample sale on Friday, March 27, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., with some showrooms staying open until 5 p.m., at 110 East 9th St., Los Angeles, 90079. The CMC floors out L.A.-based women's, men's, juniors, and kids labels including Mod Ref, Only, Jack & Jones, and Emory Park, across dozens of showrooms, with hours varying by floor. On-site parking is $16 for the day, or you can bring it down to $5 by spending at least $10 on food or drinks at Urli Bird Cafe on Floor 2C. The CMC event is the most edit-it-yourself experience on this list: part of the appeal is that no two visits look the same, because the showroom mix changes each month. Show up early, caffeinate at Urli Bird, and claim the parking discount while you're at it.

Beyond March: What's Coming

For sales landing in the next few weeks, the Chicmi calendar has already flagged the Djerf Avenue sample sale, a VEJA sample sale, a goop x AARYAH pop-up, and the Pickwick Vintage Show. The A Current Affair vintage marketplace is locked in for May 2, 2026, which, if past editions are any indication, deserves its own planning session entirely.
