HOW TO SHOP SALES LIKE A STYLIST | FINDING DEALS & MAJOR MARKDOWNS
This time of year is notorious for major markdowns and end of season sales. I’m sharing the best buys according to a professional shopper so you can avoid impulse buying and score on ageless style. If you know why it works and how to wear it you won’t end up with a closet full of nothing to wear ever again.
DESIGNER DEALS
By the time designers take their markdowns it is usually on the styles that didn’t do well. If you are lucky enough to find the styles with staying power on sale in your size, then you better buy!
Valentino “rockstud” shoes and accessories never go out of style. Classy with just a bit of sassy. These are all on sale now.
My Jimmy Choo Romy pumps are my heels I’ve ever owned. You can wear them year round. The leather soles sit perfectly on a 3″ heel to elongate your leg line without breaking your back.
JIMMY COO SALE
My Gucci Tee Shirt is on sale! If you’ve had your eye on her since I shared her in my post Splurge and Save, grab her now.
LIGHT LAYERS
A plaid flannel is a winter staple. Layer under your favorite cashmere sweater or your new shearling jacket. This one is on sale for $19.99 and comes in these six classic color combinations.
Check out my post Jean Shirt Shortcut for some fun ways to style your flannel solo with your favorite jeans.
A graphic tee is a great way to add some color and personality to you outfit. This one by Chaser, one of my favorite band tee brands, is so soft and on sale for $37. Swap your jeans for these cashmere joggers, on sale for $297 from $395. Complete the looks with UGG moto boots on sale for $99 from $159.95 and this cozy denim jacket, $110.

It’s no surprise my number one selling item to date, these jeans by Mother, are sold out.
They fit great, especially if you’re on the petite side. They have a 9.75″ rise and 25″ inseam.

If you have a bit more length in your legs, both of these styles, with 27.5″ inseams won’t leave you feeling like you’re wearing floods. If you have length in your torso too, the Tripper as a 11.25″ rise. The Rascal only has a 9.25″ low rise.
