Shopping the sales the right way is always about having one eye on the present and one eye on the future. In this case, it’s not just about nabbing those pieces that will improve your end-of-summer wardrobe, providing a short term dopamine hit, it’s about investing in the right pieces you can wear into autumn too. Firstly, lean into classic colours and shapes. Think: cropped bouclé jackets, classic blue shirting and autumn tones like terracotta and beige. Then, think about what’s coming next: leopard print is big on the style agenda for autumn, so now is a wise time to invest in an animal print piece. Lastly, perhaps the holy grail of sale dressing is finding great designer jeans at a reduced price. This pair by Toteme, below, comes in a shade of ecru that will always be in style.
