It’s coming to that time in the season where sale sections are running thin on prized fashion finds. If you scroll enough, you’re sure to find a gem or two. We thought it would be helpful to collect all those precious descovories in one place. Let us know if you find an notable item that’s worth adding.

Usually, the holiday season means walking alongside cars to avoid slow-walking tourists. This year stores are much more empty but online shopping still maintains a lot safer. This year, the aggravation of missorted packages and shipping delays seems to be even more angering than crowded streets. It’s even more important than ever to plan ahead. 

The hours to take advantage of free shipping is ticking away quickly. Lucky, most New York stores will offer a messenger service for free or a small fee. Store prices tend to range from $15 to $30. Many times, retailers will wave the fee for expensive purchases. It never hurts to ask.

Prada’s seasonal sale kicked off at boutiques and department stores today. Unlike some other higher-end brands, Muccia is trying to keep the discounts a little discreet. Department stores launched private sale links and codes are necessary to see the discounts. You will need to specifically ask about sale items when shopping at the boutique.

One of my favorite catchphrases is: “Chic Happens.” Obviously, it’s because the best outfits are unintentional. When it’s good, it’s just good– and you immediately know it.

Saks Fifth Avenue challenged me to put together a head to toe look that can fit into many budgets. I found exactly everything I needed and Chic Happened.

My head-to-toe look includes a combination of items that easily come together as an adorable ensemble or can be integrated with items you already own. I started with these girly Cinq a Sept tied flare leg jeans, which are very on-trend for this season. I added a minimalistic Cinq a Sept cashmere sweater ($345), which is perfect for balancing the pants. A simple pair of Loeffler Randall ankle boots ($395), a Staud bag ($210), and then you can top it off with a Moose Knuckles hat ($150). Frame jeans ($220) are an easy alternative to change up the outfit for a more casual occasion.

As we are talking about shopping on a budget. Saks is offering a great “Get up to $400 OFF” promotion that starts today and runs through December 19. The breakdowns are below. I’m quite sure that with the extra savings you can make chic happen too.

Spend $250, get $50 off

Spend $450, get $100 off

Spend $750, get $175 off

Spend $1000, get $250 off

Spend $1500, get $400 off
