The Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales are in full swing, and with it, the endless scroll to see if our wishlist pieces have been reduced. With page after page of sale items, it can be overwhelming to know where to start, which is why I've scoured Saks Fifth Avenue to bring you the best deals. I'm talking hundreds of dollars off countless styles, plus an additional 40 percent off select options.

The sale includes cult designers like The Row, Tory Burch, Rag & Bone, and more—but pieces are selling out fast, so scroll below now for my late-autumn and winter essentials.

Tory Burch Ballet Cotton Poplin Knee- Length Skirt

This black skirt will undoubtedly be a piece you reach for time after time. It looks great with black tights in the winter or on its own n the spring and summer. Plus, it matches with everything.

Amina Muaddi Begum Satin Slingback Sandals

Amina Muaddi's signature 'Begum' slingbacks are reimagined for party season in lustrous royal blue satin. Crowned with a crystal-embellished buckle and set atop a fluted heel designed to look like an upside-down martini glass—another brand hallmark—this pair has been made in Italy, so you know that quality is guaranteed.

The Row Isara Self-Tie Top

This relaxed top puts an ultra-feminine spin on the classic 90s cardigan, with self-tie side closures, extra-long sleeves, and a relaxed shape.

Self-Portrait Sleeveless Velvet Cut-Out Gown

The LBD is a closet staple, and with good reason. Self-Portrait's version is made from everyone's holiday favorite fabric—velvet—and spliced at the side to add a fresh spin to an otherwise classic design.

Róhe Double-Breasted Wool-Blend Coat

Amsterdam-based label Róhe knows all about minimalism and staying warm, as evidenced in this classic double-breasted wool coat. It's designed to be worn oversized, so there's plenty of room for extra layers.

Eye M by Ileana Makri Emily In Paris 18K Gold-Plated & Enamel 'C'est La Vie' Necklace

This 18k gold necklace was inspired by Emily in Paris—it even has tiny letters spelling "c'est la vie" to inject a bit of European glamor into your day to day.

Interior Damien Oversized Jacket

This season, depart from the monotony of the boring black blazer and consider this olive green one instead. Made to be mixed and matched with everything from professional to evening wear, it's destined to be a wardrobe staple.

Rag & Bone Holly Striped Alpaca-Blend Sweater

Stay warm in style with this versatile sweater from Rag & Bone. The ombre stripes will add a mood-boost to gloomy days.

L'AGENCE Etienne 75MM Leather Booties

These stiletto booties are sure to stun from autumn through winter. Their ankle wrap buckle detailing is a gorgeous way of incorporating hardware into an otherwise soft leather shoe, and their padded insole is sure to keep you comfortable while you're on your feet.

Veronica Beard Tonya Striped Dress

This shirt dress from Veronica Beard makes looking put-together easy, with its structured silhouette, shirt collar, and vertical black and white stripes.

Cinq à Sept Wildwood Flower Shirred Mesh Turtleneck

I'm obsessed with this mesh turtleneck. Colorful, lightweight, and comfortable, it looks great under a tee or layered over a lacy bralette.

Farm Rio Satin Floral Long-Sleeve Minidress

I'm a huge fan of Brazilian brand Farm Rio, with its joyful patterns that often incorporate foliage, flowers, and bright, warm colors. This dress is no different, and is sure to inject a burst of sunshine into winter's short, dark days.

Vince Rue Leather Chelsea Boots

The Chelsea boot is a look that never goes out of style, and it's no wonder: They're comfortable, sleek, and and easy to pull on and off. This option from Vince features a rubber sole, too, so you can walk with confidence no matter the weather.
