The fashion accessories retailer filed for bankruptcy earlier this month and was beginning to roll out store closing sales.

After filing for bankruptcy for a second time, Claire’s announced on Aug. 20 that it would be selling most of its North American business.

Jewelry retailer Claire's said on Wednesday it would sell its North American business to private equity firm Ames Watson for $104 million in cash, in a deal that will keep at least 795 retail locations in business.
