Sure I love what I’ve seen of the Whitney Eve collection but many times I’ve been skittish about shelling out that much for a fledgling design effort. And somehow, Rue La La seems to know that.

The invitation-only shopping site will host a private sale Boutique featuring apparel created by MTV star and designer, Whitney Port, beginning 11 a.m. ET on May 12, 2010.

And although Rue La La is a members-only private sale shopping emporium, for a limited time you can join through www.ruelala.com/whitney.

By the way, you can see the preparation for the Rue La La Whitney Eve sale on the May 11 episode of the MTV reality series “The City,” which airs at 10:30pm ET/PT.
