This year, I’m sharing the best Labor Day sales and shopping in two ways: my top picks and the best brands to check out.
First up – my top picks for fall in no particular order. I’m sticking with camel, creams, and navy (no surprise there!) and my accent colors will be teal/green and red (with a touch of pink). What about you?! I’m hearing a spendthrifty and then splurge-worthy version of most items as well!
- Vest (Save / Splurge) – wear it now sans a shirt, tiptoe into fall with a tee, go all-in on ‘sweater weather‘ with an oversized button-down, and then [surprise] wear it under a cardigan for a fun peek-a-boo…versatile for daysss!
- Clogs (Save / Splurge)
- Wide-leg pants (not oversized) (Save / Splurge) – once on, these will feel very upper West Side chic
- Jumpsuit (Save / Splurge) – aka lazy chicness (this is the one I love)
- Moto-inspired boots (TipToe / All-In)
- A Chloe-esque third layer (Splurge / Save) – Chloe is always in fashion and finishing your outfit like this is an easy WIN
- Luxe knit (Save / Splurge)
- Slip dress (Sassy / Sophisticated) – I’ve got a knee-length one that I’ve worn endlessly and will rock going into fall under my cropped sweatshirt as well…
- Band collar or bib front shirt – you will get sooo much mileage out of this to dress up or down
Next – remember not all sales are created equal and, more importantly, everything isn’t for you…sorry ladies! If you can be intentional and focus on a few fabulous pieces that increase the overall versatility of your closet, you will feel and look better. Just try it! Brands that will help stretch your wardrobe this fall include…
- Spanx – 70% off, those pants are perfection! EVERY client I have that has purchased them sings their praises and I have the shorts, so can chime in on the chorus!
- Everlane – they’re cleaning house, I love their boxy short sleeve shirts – they have a very menswear camp shirt coolness
- Rag & Bone – love this “jean” dress that isn’t really denim – they created a material using tencel so it’s light [read: perfect for summer] but gives you the grit and insouciance of real denim…winning
- G Star Raw – some of the edgiest denim in the business that will give you that Usher ‘bad girl’ vibe + a very Pharrell hat and he’s everything right now, especially after his FABU Louis Vuitton runway show!
- All Saints – 60% off, I tend toward their dresses for everyday funkiness but step outside your comfort zone and try a print that levels up your weekend girls night.
- Saint & Sofia, I find myself wearing the knot dress too often especially since you can wear it like 4 different ways!!
- Reformation – 70% but a lot to choose from every day to more formal pieces under $200.
- Mother – best butt-loving jeans around!
- Marcella NYC – sleek, minimalist, sustainable chic….that sums it up
I won’t update this list but I will be sharing a few more finds via my Instagram Stories so tune in…
