JULY 15, 2019
During this time of year, everyone is usually shopping the Nordstrom Sale.
But, now is the best time to shop the end-of-season sales with other retailers like Aritzia and Zara. In my opinion, the Nordstrom sale is great for staples like designer jeans (my fave brands: AG, Mother, Paige, and Citizens of Humanity).
THE BEST TIME TO GO,
is towards the last week(s) of the sale. This is usually around the last 1-2 weeks of the sale where everything is marked down to the lowest possible price.
GO IN WITH A BUDGET OR YOU WILL GO WILD!
At Zara, mostly everything except outerwear will be around $10-$30. My budget here is no more than $20/item. My go-to’s here are always dresses and jumpsuits because their collection is always filled with cool, fun, unique, and trendy pieces that I can’t seem to find anywhere else. Also, there’s usually great pieces that could transition easily into fall. ***The winter end-of-season sale is the best time to find staples like leather jackets, parkas, and coats.
At Aritzia, everything on sale (more than half of the store) will be 30-50% off. Since Aritzia uses higher quality fabrics, my budget is usually no more than $65/item for pieces that are regularly $100-$200. My go-to’s here are dresses, jumpsuits, and pants. I know anything I buy here will last pretty much forever (in quality and style), so it’s worth the extra splurge.
THE DOWNSIDE
to shopping towards the end of the sale is that there will be less to choose from, BUT what you will find will be an amazing steal! It’s so satisfying when you find something you love on sale and it didn’t cost an arm and a leg.
