The prices of designer shoes have skyrocketed even more quickly than obscure cryptocurrencies. (Not really, but you get the point.) It wasn’t so long ago that standard designer pumps retailed for $600. Now $900 is the benchmark designer pumps. Analysts frequently debate if people are actually spending more money or just waiting longer for deeper discounts. Below is an assortment of shoes in the $300-range or less. It just proves that no matter your budget you should never settle.

This is the final call. If you’ve been watching anything on Ssense, now would be the time to snatch it up. The site recently added a whole new round of markdowns and even modified private sale items to make them available to the public. The Ssense sale will likely end at the end of the month. Be sure to check out some extra markdowns from Valentino, Rick Owens, and Balenciaga. All of our favorite finds are below.

There is a thrill to finding exactly what you want during a third markdown but those finds are becoming less frequent. The more rewarding prospect is savings on the newest season’s trends. Right now, the Italian boutique Giglio is offering 10% off new season merchandise with the code BTS21. Some items “retail” are less than the US, which adds to the savings. The site also covers duties, taxes, and shipping. There isn’t a lot of inventory on any of these items. We suggest you spring into action now or find contentment in paying full retail.

Boutiques are finally receiving new merchandise. Fall fashion is new and fresh– and in most cases full price.  A search through Italist uncovered savings on several items we know are always in demand as the season changes. It’s never a bad strategy to be a leader in scooping up those items while you can. These pieces are sure to sell out at these prices and real markdowns won’t begin until November.

Intermix added lots of merchandise to its sale selection. The new discounts include some of the most iconic items of the season, including Staud and Ulla Johnson. It’s further proof of how late sale season is running. It’s hard to believe that there are still inventories that haven’t been added to the markdown. Below are some of our favorite new sales picks.

Yoox is a nightmare to shop. There is way too much merchandise on Yoox and the retail prices are usually incorrect. (Mostly much too low but on the higher side from time to time.) Sometimes the Yoox merchandise is very old but at the right price– who cares. Right now, you can find discounts up to 80% off, which could be worth the time of scrolling for hidden gems. We tried to make it easier for you by unburying lots of great finds. See what we found below. 

Bergdorf Goodman just kicked off their last big promotion of the season. Right now, sale merchandise is an extra 20% off which brings the total savings to over 70% off on many items.

All of our favorite Bergdorf Goodman sale finds are below. The extra 20% off sale ends on Saturday.
