Prefall merchandise has arrived and now the race is on to move out the older collections. Moda Operandi is the most recent site to slash prices. Right now, you can save up to 80% off on many major fashion items.
Among the most discounted merchandise are these Ellery pants that are $178 from nearly $900. Truth be told, it looks like the fit can be awkward. These high waisted pants from Rosie Assoulin are also 80% off and come to $300 from almost $1600. There are sandal slides designed in collaboration between Tabitha Simmons and Johanna Ortiz that are $167 from nearly $600. This Delpozo dress is reduced 70% off but is dreamy and not over-the-top expensive at $928 or we can easily be persuaded to buy this peplum top for $420 from $1050.
This is the last “hard markdown” at Moda. There will be lots of intermittent promotions where you can save an additional 20%. You can also rest assured because the Moda sale usually runs long after the other stores move out their clearance.
Nordstrom is known for having great sales. There are two in particular that can send a city girl shopping in the burbs: The “Half-Yearly Sale” and the “Anniversary Sale.” The Half-Yearly sale is clearance, usually towards the end of the season. (Like, now.) The Anniversary Sale is a presale before the new collection hits the department store floor.
Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale starts today. The sale consists of a catalog of pre-Fall merchandise that is discounted 25% to 40% off. Each department has its own special items that are featured in the pre-Fall sale. You can sift through the catalog right here.
The presale runs to July 19st but is limited to customers who have a Nordstrom credit card. Afterward, on July 20, the sale opens to the general public. Prices return to normal once the sale ends in August.
Back-to-school items are especially attractive during this Nordies sale. For example, you know your kids want new Adidas sneakers for the start of school and they are right here for $36 from $60. Nike Cortez kicks are $45 from $60. (There is really no reason not to get them!) Over here is a Herschel Supply backpack for $50, which is normally $75. There is also a large amount of swimwear in case you need to do a mid-season refresh. We even spotted Bugaboo Cameleon that’s discounted to $800.
The selection this season isn’t quite as good as last year but there is still a lot of temptation. It’s interesting that designers have realized that pre-gaming sale season is better than post-season markdowns. Don’t forget to also check out the beauty deals. We are always a sucker for a new shade of lipstick or an updated nail polish
The pressure is on online luxury retailers and MatchesFashion is the most recent site to add a little promotion to their final markdown. Starting today, you can save an additional 20% off spring and summer merchandise, which has already been reduced up to 70% off.
We noticed that some of the more highly reduced merchandise is from prior seasons. It’s usually not a problem if it’s new to you but chances are that size options are thin.
As we begin to near the end of the sale season cycle, size options will become a little thin and prices tick up and down from site to site. Our latest browsing session brought us SSense. Discounts on the Canadian site seem to near or exceed even the steepest local markdowns.
In addition to the steep discounts, there is also a really eclectic assortment that we haven’t seen state-side. On Instagram we saw the Heron Preston collab with Off-White but never saw the bag in person. Here is the bag and it’s now $530 from $945. There is also this utility-style belt for just $64 from $165. Another social media celeb item is this Vetements horoscope rain jacket that’s now $105 from $350. Over this way is a Champion hoodie that’s just $45. (Perfect for the “kids”.)
You should take note that the most reduced items are final sale. At some point, Ssense does an extra 20% off. We just aren’t sure when it can be expected.
Shopbop is offering a deal that might be hard to refuse. Right now, a selection of spring and summer merchandise is already discounted 70% off but for two days you can save an extra 25%. Use the code EXTRA18 at checkout to engage the additional savings.
Remember when Rodarte sweatshirts used to seem expensive? That was before Vetements and Off-White tried convincing us that a $900 sweatshirt is normal. Well, here is a classic Rodarte hoodie for about $100 from $345. Seems like a bargain, right?
As far as sales go, ShopBop’s selection seems to be pretty on point. There is a large assortment of price points and even sizes that are still available. Seems like a good opportunity to pick up something extra nice before your big August vacation.
Mondays can be a hard recovery from a Summer weekend but a little shopping could be a great pick-me-up. Truth is, the weekend is just four days away. Saks Fifth Avenue’s most recent discount promotion might be the perfect way to overcome the Monday blues. Right now, you can save an extra 15% off, which brings the total markdown on some items to nearly 75% off.
Twice a year, The Outnet hosts a clearance sale where merchandise is discounted an extra 50% off the lowest price cut. The markdown on many items is nearly 90%. As you would imagine, the merchandise goes very fast. For this reason, we are so excited that we can provide a VIP link ahead of the sale going public.
After the fireworks die down we excitedly await for Net-a-Porter’s explosive final markdown. This end-of-season event usually only lasts a few weeks and is delivered with lots of extra discounts.
This season’s big event started today. The extra discount is an extra 20% off but doesn’t apply to all items. When this sale strikes, merchandise tends to go very quickly. The shoes and bags are always the first to fly off the site.
In the shoe department, there are lots of Gianvitto Rossi shoes discounted 50% and there’s another 20% on top. These mules are $280 from nearly $700. These Vetements Manolos are 80% and even justafiable at $345.
Everything gets a little more interesting when you start shopping for clothing. There is still a large assortment of clothing and the variety is quite large. Here is a white poplin dress that’s reduced to $300 from $1500. It’s universally understood that the dress was way overpriced to begin. This Prada dress falls in the same category of overpricing but could be justifiable with these new discounts.
The NAP final sale usually lasts just a couple of weeks. Then the section completely disappears. TheOut is the next stop– as it becomes past season fashion.
