Temperatures are in the 90’s, and stores are beginning to get in their FALL merchandise?! While shopping for jackets and boots might seem like the last thing you want to do, now can be a great time to prep your wardrobe for the upcoming season. Nordstrom has their summer Anniversary sale going on now, and many other retailers are marking down summer merchandise to make room for new fall items. It can be overwhelming to shop these sales and know what to buy, so here are a few ways to shop.
SHOPPING SUMMER SALES
When sifting through the summer sales, we like to look for items that will last through to next season (classics instead of trends), items that you know and love (some of these sales can be final, so make sure you know how the brand fits you), or items that are worn and need to be replaced. Also keep in mind if you have any dressy events coming up – this can be a great time to score a fabulous dress at a great price! Some ideas for you:
SHOPPING FALL PRE-SALES
When shopping for fall so early in the season, we like to stick to updating the basics. Before you shop, take inventory of what you NEED – this will prevent impulse buys (“it was such a good deal!”) that will then go unworn in your closet. We can help you determine your needs with a Closet ReStyle, too. 🙂 Don’t forget about shoes, jackets, work-out gear, accessories, and beauty!
