You may have noticed some posts from our friends at the Strategist on the Cut. They’ll be dropping in every now and again, sharing their expertise on the basics you don’t have time to research and the weird and wonderful things you don’t yet know you need.
Summer only officially began yesterday—yet there’s a ton of warm weather stuff already on sale. First, our fashion writer Ambar Pardilla noticed there are a lot of sandals on sale this week. I pulled a few of her picks below — including the heels that Strategist senior writer Liza Corsillo wore on her wedding day. Then I headed to Rothy’s, which also has some nice discounts on its (machine-washable!) shoes.
Although it’s hot outside, I feel obligated to tell you that the Madewell jeans from one of our most clicked-on stories this week — an ode to a pair of jeans that fits everybody — is 30 percent off in a nice light wash that’s perfect for summer (weather permitting). I also took a leisurely stroll through Shopbop’s sale section and found plenty of sunglasses and scrunchies on sale. (Though my favorite find is a classic, stripey Baggu tote that’s 40 percent off.) Of course, if you prefer to stay indoors during national heat waves, I’m delighted to report that Anthropologie’s sale section is filled with lots of excellent deals to decorate your tabletop, from linen placemats to colorful drinking glasses. And Strategist home writer Erin Schwartz found a very comfortable-looking RH-dupe couch on sale at World Market.
And as always, make sure to sign up for our email newsletter for even more sales coverage — including extra deals each Friday hand-selected by yours truly.
