"  Barneys just announced the dates of their spring summer warehouse sale \u2014 August 19th through September 6th \u2014 which means you&amp;#039;ve got just about three week to perfect a game plan. Rule #1. Don&amp;#039;t bring a bag. You&amp;#039;ll have to wait in line to check it and then again to pick it up. Come equipped with your wallet, and nothing else. Rule #2. Since it&amp;#039;s going to be hot outside anyway, wear the smallest, most slip-like dress you own. There aren&amp;#039;t dressing rooms, and it&amp;#039;s insanely crowded, so the less clothing you show up wearing, the easier it is to try on more.  Rule #3. Same goes for shoes \u2014 flip flops are ideal. Our fashion editor says, &amp;quot;Scan all the aisles of shoes to find the style you want, and then concentrate on finding your right size because they&amp;#039;re usually mixed up and you can miss what you really want when it&amp;#039;s hiding in the size 5\u2032s! Also, people stuff shoes in the back of the shelves behind the boots so check there&amp;quot; Rule #5. Don&amp;#039;t buy something just because it&amp;#039;s on sale. As appealing as that wedding-like Rodarte dress may be, you&amp;#039;re not going to wear it. (Though if you&amp;#039;re still thinking about it come September 5th, chances are it&amp;#039;s still there, maybe $400 cheaper and only slightly more torn.)
