Favorite e-tailer Net-a-Porter has been promising an online outlet -- the "Outnet" -- for months, where it will offer deeply discounted designer pieces and give competing sites like Bluefly.com a serious run for their money.

Now Fashionologie reports that the site's founder Natalie Massenet has announced that the "Outnet" will launch in February 2009.

Until then, recessionistas can indulge in the site's 50% off sale -- including markdowns on labels like Bottega Veneta, Vanessa Bruno, Marc Jacobs and Narcisco Rodriguez.
