Two months after Banana Republic teamed up with La Ligne, the casually cool collection (rather, the styles that haven't sold out) became one of 2026's most affordable fashion collaborations. As an early Black Friday gift to Banana Republic fans, everything earned a 40-percent-off coupon at checkout—including the chicest pair of chino pants in Jennifer Lawrence's non-denim drawer.

When the beloved mall brand's new partnership prioritized pieces with a "distinct New York sense of ease," I had a feeling celebrity New Yorkers like Lawrence were the target clientele. By October 2, J.Law corroborated my claim with the Wide-Leg Cotton Chinos in the earthy, "campground green" color. As a La Ligne loyalist since 2023, the 100-percent cotton pair is slightly more structured than her favorite Colby Pants from the New York-based brand. They share the same wide-leg silhouette, though.

When Lawrence wore the Banana Republic x La Ligne bottoms with a semi-sheer shawl, a white tank top, and Archies flip-flops, they retailed for $200. Now, not only are the chinos still available to shop, but they're $120. Meanwhile, the Colby Pants haven't pitched their $325 price tag.

La Ligne's annual Black Friday sale is still weeks away. But right now, the "just because" Banana Republic x La Ligne deal is ripe for shopping. The checkout discount applies to striped sweaters and shirts, holiday party-approved dresses, and seasonal suede designs. Plenty of styles beloved by Marie Claire editors (myself included) are 40 percent off, too.

First up? Fashion editor Lauren Tappan's "English country style" culottes in the same "campground green" shade as Lawrence's full-length find. "Stitched with heavyweight cotton in an earthy olive shade, these cropped bottoms have [winter] written all over them," Tappan said. "I styled the look with a soft Banana Republic cardigan from my closet and layered it over the collection’s Slim Blazer, which offers the perfect amount of shape and structure." But be warned: the culottes are selling fast.

Then, there's the Cropped Cotton Cardigan, a creamy white sweater that style director Sara Holzman wears on repeat. "I’m always looking for knits that can do the work of a jacket in early [winter], and this one does," she said. "It’s chunky enough to give an outfit some shape, but the cropped length keeps it from feeling bulky." After adding it to my cart, I can confirm: it's $150, down from $250.

As for my favorites, I couldn't be happier to see the Banana Republic x La Ligne Cape Trench Coat is still in stock. (I wanted to treat my mom to the "Ganache Brown" trench for Christmas, but feared it would've sold out by now.) The best part? The investment piece is no longer $600, but $360.

The Cotton Poplin Tunic and the Drapey Pull-On Pant are also on sale, except sizes are scarce. So, follow my lead and snatch the sky blue and chocolate brown workwear staples—for yourself or a loved one—while you still can.

Much like the Banana Republic x La Ligne collaboration, this 40-percent-off discount is limited-run. It seems the styles will return to their regular prices on Nov. 13. That said, what are you waiting for? Once you add Lawrence's polished pants to your cart, come back and shop a few more sales below.

Shop the On-Sale Banana Republic x La Ligne Collaboration

I identify as a second-generation bargain hunter. From a young age, my mom began teaching me the secrets of the sale rack. While my friends were shopping at Limited Too or Hollister, my mom and I were at the thrift store, sifting through discount racks to find a diamond in the rough.

Two decades later, I'm proud to say the student has finally surpassed the master. Now that I online shop for a living, I've got a thing or two to teach her about saving a dollar. Number one: Garage sales aren't the only place to find a good deal. In fact, Nordstrom regularly marks down their top merchandise to near-tag sale prices.

So ahead of Black Friday—which is my family's equivalent to the Super Bowl—I've pulled together the best finds from Nordstrom's sale section. Here's every discount Mom can't miss.

Even though I am a fashion writer, I'm not the only Gap loyalist in my family. In fact, my mom, an OG Gap girl, passed her affinity for the American brand down to me long before I entered the industry. So, when we compared holiday wish lists (a pre-Black Friday tradition), we weren't shocked to see our "wants and needs" sections stocked with styles from Gap, our family's favorite one-stop gift shop. But we were surprised by the similarities between our picks.

With how different our winter wardrobes are (for one, my mom sticks to neutral shades, while I play with pops of primary colors), creative director Zac Posen has achieved the impossible by connecting our closets. We've found common fashion ground in Gap's classic cotton sweaters, affordable denim, and casually cool outerwear.

The plunging price tags were a nice draw, too: Not only are the Hailey Bieber x Gap jeans currently $53 (down from $90), but the brand's Cashsoft collection offers cashmere blends for a fraction of the price. Many of the winter essentials, ranging from red socks to suede fingerless gloves, are available for under $40.

Now, my mom and I originally planned to sit around the Thanksgiving dinner table, our laptops ready to snatch the last sizes of best-selling Gap styles for ourselves (and to gift other loved ones in December). But we would have been fools to wait until Black Friday to shop. For the best Gap finds—and sales—of the season, keep scrolling for 48 pieces that are already en route to our mailboxes.

I've tested enough beauty products to know that a fancy price tag doesn't always mean an effective formula. Has that stopped me from falling for products that cost more than I'd care to admit? Absolutely not (the packaging! the marketing!). Such is the occupational hazard of being a beauty editor. At this point, though, I know which formulas are worth the splurge, which ones I'd never buy twice, and which ones I refuse to run out of. Naturally, those are the first things I'm looking for whenever I'm shopping. So, you can imagine that with the holidays approaching, the best early Black Friday beauty deals are coming in clutch.

Nordstrom has started marking down luxury fragrances and skincare, including finds from Maison Francis Kurkdjian and Joanna Czech. Over at Ulta, the early deals cover everything from Medicube's cult-favorite skincare to Shark styling tools, while Amazon and Revolve have their own beauty finds worth checking out. Bobbi Brown is also getting in on the action, should your makeup bag need a little attention.

I'm also thinking about gifting, because I get so excited to give my loved ones a beauty product they'd probably never splurge on themselves. Ahead, the products to get a head start on holiday shopping—whether it's for someone special or even yourself, if it never happens to make it out of the house.

Last year, 24 hours after Black Friday, Hailey Bieber styled New Balance 740 sneakers. After shoppers learned that the style was on sale, the sporty sneakers sold out in most sizes by Cyber Monday. But now, they're back. Nordstrom's early Black Friday sale declared the Bieber-beloved New Balance trainers a can't-miss deal—again.

Normally, the New Balance 740s—marked by solid chunky soles, two-tone color combinations, and a breathable mesh base—retail for $115. For a Black Friday practice round, however, Nordstrom discounted the silhouette to $86. That's 25 percent off the original price—and weeks ahead of Black Friday, no less.

So, you could start sporting the 2010s-era New Balances the Hailey Bieber Way (with a classic black hoodie and matching leggings) long before the biggest shopping weekend of the year. (Compared to her on-sale sneakers, coffee with Justin Bieber is a bit harder to come by.)

Bieber's exact "mercury red" color combination hasn't received the Black Friday treatment—and something tells me it won't. The white, gray, and burgundy trainers sold out within days of their street style debut in Nov. 2025, meaning they're as tricky to track down as the Rhode x Alexandra Leclerc collaboration.

But being on backorder isn't a bad thing, because Nordstrom offers the on-sale New Balance sneakers in even more versatile shades, including "sea salt angora" (milky white) and "mushroom driftwood" (taupe and ivory). That said, I'm surprised Bieber hasn't taken the cloudy white color for a spin yet: she's a staunch supporter of the white sneaker renaissance, rotating between the Nike x Comme des Garçons collab and New Balance 530s (which, sadly, aren't on sale).

Bieber's New Balance 740s aren't the only celebrity-tested trainers in Nordstrom's discounted department. Asics Gel-1130 sneakers—endorsed by Kaia Gerber, Kendall Jenner, and Anne Hathaway—are under $75; Bieber's New Balance 9060s are 25 percent off, too.

So, beat the Black Friday crowds and shop some of the most popular pairs from Adidas, Nike, New Balance, and more below.

Shop Celebrity-Beloved Sneakers at Nordstrom's Early Black Friday Sale

Nordstrom didn't wait for Black Friday to discount celebrity-supported sneakers from Adidas. So, why should we delay shopping the marked-down styles—especially when Zoë Kravitz endorsed them as recently as last month, on the set of her forthcoming film? From now through November 11 (or until her fans snatch all of the sizes), the same Adidas Samba silhouette on Kravitz's shoe rack is one of the best early Black Friday sales—and available for over 30 percent off.

Now, Kravitz's black-and-white color combination happens to be the most popular Samba pairing. So, it's no surprise that Nordstrom hasn't given her exact, best-selling Adidas sneakers the sale treatment (yet). That's not to say shoppers can't save on the slim-sole sneaker this season. Sneakerheads just have to branch out beyond the classic, universally sought-after shades—and take a chance on the more underrated color combos.

For instance, swap the black Adidas Sambas for creamy chocolate brown, and you'll spend $74, not $100. Better yet, you'll never pass the same pair on the street style circuit. That's the beauty of steering clear of the classics—and playing around with less predictable palettes. Don't worry, you can still style them the Zoë Kravitz Way: with a rich red sweater, a burgundy scarf, and baggy everyday basics.

While Adidas Sambas have been around since 1950, dominating Black Friday sales for decades, right now, the sleek low-profile shoes are returning to regular celebrity rotations. Since summer ended, everyone from Kristen Stewart and Billie Eilish to Alexandra Leclerc and Kravitz has sponsored Sambas as the comeback sneakers of the season.

Still, whether they sell out or reclaim their regular price tags, Adidas Sambas won't be this affordable forever. So, to sample the more unsung shades of sneakers, start shopping Nordstrom's early Black Friday Sale, with prices beginning at $60.

Every year, holiday shopping seems to start earlier. Case in point: Nordstrom's Early Black Friday Sale is already here, a whole three weeks before the actual day. We used to shop Black Friday to get a head start on holiday gifts, and now we’re getting a head start on Black Friday itself. Hey, I’m not complaining. I’m Siena, Marie Claire’s Beauty Editor, and I happen to be a sucker for a good deal. While I’m always hunting down skincare and makeup markdowns—glowing skin is part of the gig, after all—fragrance is where I really get excited. Unfortunately, I also have very expensive taste in perfume (and please, don’t get me started on my laundry detergents and candles).

Nordstrom must have read the minds of my fellow scent obsessives because the fragrance selection is particularly good. And I don't say that lightly. We're talking 15 percent off Maison Francis Kurkdjian, Parfums de Marly, Frédéric Malle, and other names that rarely make it into the sale section. Even better, we have until November 11 to shop Nordstrom’s sale before the real Black Friday chaos begins. Will these bottles be marked down again? Maybe. Am I willing to take that chance? Absolutely not. Here's everything I'm eyeing (and trying very hard to justify buying).

Cult Status

Some products are so good, you don't need much convincing to buy them at full price. Which makes finding these cult favorites majorly discounted feel like a huge victory.

Sweet Enough

I love how comforting gourmands can be, but I can't stand a fragrance that smells like a bakery (sorry!). These two have just enough sweetness, with a little more depth to keep things cool.

Come Closer

Skin scents are those no-brainer, everyday perfumes you can't go wrong with. They're intimate, personal, and a little sexy without trying too hard.

Warm & Bothered

'Tis the season for all things warm, spicy, and woody. Give me all the fragrances that smell like a chilly fall evening, please and thanks.

Not Your Average

If you avoid the classics because everyone else is wearing them, this section is for you. I've been stopped more times than I can count over these two unisex scents.

A few months ago, while filming Season 6 of Only Murders in the Building in England, Selena Gomez lived in Ugg's Elea Slip-On Slippers. As recently as this morning, Marie Claire's UK-based deputy director, Jenny Hollander, spotted the same grab-and-go slides on a casually cool London girl. And now, Amazon's early Black Friday sale made the Uggs the best discount of the season (so far).

"I maintain a strong collection of 'indoor' Uggs, but recently I’ve been eyeing an 'outdoor' pair to wear on dog walks—the colder it gets, the more this plays on my mind," Hollander tells me. "Today, I saw a stylish woman outside Victoria Station crossing the road in these beige Uggs, and I think it might have pushed me over the edge."

The Londoner wasn't Gomez in disguise: She's back in Beverly Hills with her husband, Benny Blanco. But this summer, when she wasn't filming the hit Hulu show, she channeled the London girl look in the $130 pair.

Granting Hollander's wish for comfy (celebrity-beloved) dog-walking footwear, Amazon marked the Elea Slippers down to $89. The shopping conglomerate did the same during Amazon Prime Big Deal Days, making Gomez's waterproof, shearling-lined shoes—complete with sand-colored suede, slim rubber soles, and backless heels—more affordable than ever.

Better yet, Gomez's beige isn't the only on-sale neutral shade on Amazon right now: the same shoes in chestnut brown, muted mustard, and sky blue are under $90, too. With that said, there's no better time for Gomez to add another color to her ever-expanding Elea collection. Her fans need more Uggs fashion inspiration for winter, after all. Decking the halls in a crop top and denim Daisy dukes doesn't sound as festive as, say, a cozy cashmere sweater and taffeta trousers.

While you await the next Uggs sighting (either on a London girl or Gomez), style the slippers with the Rare Beauty founder's latest looks, including her winter white turtleneck and pencil skirt or her sheer shirt and capri pants.

Shopping is, quite literally, my entire job, which means I've developed a few occupational hazards: an unreasonable ability to identify any item my friends are wearing, a running mental inventory of every fashion piece I desire, and the inability to ignore a really good sale. After years of sorting through new arrivals, designer collections, and more shopping pages than I'd care to admit, I've become pretty particular about what actually deserves a spot in my closet. A good discount is nice, but a fabulous find at a discount? That's what I'm talking about!

Which brings me to the Nordstrom sale, currently stocked with the kind of fashion finds that make my job especially enjoyable, and my pockets considerably less budgeted. I'm talking about designer accessories, wardrobe staples, luxe outerwear, and cold-weather footwear that makes a statement. I have a very specific approach to sale shopping that makes things fairly simple: If I wouldn't want it at full price, I won't buy it just because it's marked down. The goal is to find things I'll wear on repeat, not another item I inevitably store at the back of the closet and then donate.

As for what's made my shortlist? A belted trench coat from Sandro, with surprise pleating at the back. A suede shopping tote from Tod's—perfect for work, and beyond. Kallmeyer's barrel-leg jeans, which I've had my eye on for a few months now—winter white, anyone? I'm also eyeing a beautifully understated Loulou de Saison knit, Tory Burch's black Ella purse, and the perfect pair of Levi's, of course. Because you can never have too many.

Ahead, the best Nordstrom sale finds I've personally selected, with plenty of reasons to add them to your cart.

A great wardrobe doesn't have to come with a designer price tag, and Nordstrom's big Early Black Friday sale is offering plenty of proof. For this week's Smart Spend, I'm turning my attention to the best Nordstrom sale finds under $350, where elevated winter wardrobe essentials, trend-forward fashion, and investment-worthy accessories are getting the kind of markdowns that make a closet refresh feel totally justified. You'll discover luxurious-looking knitwear, tailored coats and weather-proof jackets, versatile denim, chic winter boots, and fun handbags that could easily pass for something more expensive. In fact, most of these items were expensive before the markdown.

What makes this Nordstrom sale particularly irresistible isn't just the markdowns—it's the brands attached to them. Fashion-girl favorites like Leset, Barbour, Mango, and Reformation are among the brands worth shopping, with coveted wardrobe staples and playful pieces available for a fraction of their usual prices. These are the labels that consistently find their way into the closets of well-dressed women, and rarely does an opportunity to shop for them for less deserve this much attention.

I've done the digging to uncover the best fashion and accessory deals under $350, from Reformation's suede, ruched loafers to Gobi Cashmere's perfect knit, to Barbour's waterproof transitional jacket and Vince's suede tote.

Tops, Blouses & Tees

Consider this your opportunity to upgrade the pieces you reach for the most, from crisp button-down shirts and polished knitwear to everyday tops. With brands like Vince and AllSaints in the mix, even your simplest jeans-and-top combo is about to look so much more sophisticated.

Trousers, Denim & Skirts

Great bottoms are the backbone of a well-dressed wardrobe, and Nordstrom's sale has everything from relaxed jeans and barrel-leg pants to sleek leather midi skirts.

Dresses

A well-curated dress selection takes the guesswork out of getting dressed, and this selection covers everything from romantic lace-trimmed slips to sophisticated knit dresses to draped satin styles.

Bits, Bobs & Baubles

The smallest additions make the biggest sartorial difference, and these discounted shoes, handbags, and accessories are proof.

Outerwear

If there's one category worth prioritizing during a major sale, it's the outerwear! Especially because Barbour and Mango are involved.

Although it might seem excessive, I’ve already started assembling my rotation of winter outfits. I know, I know, Thanksgiving hasn’t even started yet! But I’m the type of person who likes to plan ahead, especially when it comes to my wardrobe. My style philosophy for the chilly season is simple: I always choose unfussy pieces rooted in ease. Dealing with inclement weather is a challenge on its own, and the last thing I want to do is stress about getting dressed.

With that in mind, I’m on the hunt for minimalist outfits that’ll fit right into my pared-down closet—and luckily, Nordstrom’s current sale has everything I could possibly need.

Ahead of Black Friday, the retailer is hosting a major markdown event that features up to 25 percent off a range of winter essentials—including outerwear, boots, sweaters, and more. While scouring Nordstrom’s sale section, I spotted an elegant faux fur coat and a pair of sleek black pants—a perfect pairing for holiday parties and festive gatherings. I also discovered a tailored blazer, a cozy cashmere top, and a charming pleated skirt—all of which will enhance my workwear lineup. The best part of all, though, is that every single item falls under $190, so I won’t have to break the bank to round out my wardrobe this season.

For a curated edit of budget-friendly winter outfits, scroll on and shop. If you see something you like, act swiftly! This special sale ends on Wednesday, November 11.

Textured Outerwear

I’ve found that the best way to elevate your winter outfit is with a touch of texture. I’ll do just that with a chocolate brown faux fur coat, which I’ll pair with black pants and pointy pumps. Featuring a sophisticated appeal, this look will rise to any upscale occasion.

A Pop of Red

Spotted in a variety of Resort 2027 collections—from Valentino to Carolina Herrera—cherry red is officially fashion’s favorite color trend. Given that I’m slightly intimidated by this vibrant shade, I’ll style it with plain pieces—like gray slacks and a straightforward peacoat.

The New Neutral

As a devoted minimalist, I rarely wear bold patterns. However, I’ll always make an exception for a leopard-print coat. Composed of black and brown hues, this look can easily be styled as a neutral. For winter, I’ll team this outerwear trend with jeans and black ankle boots—as seen above.

Trusty Trench

Coat trends come and go, but the classic trench is here to stay. For those winter days that feel more like fall, slip into a lightweight trench coat that’ll provide enough coverage without causing you to overheat. Chic accessories—like heeled suede boots and a hardware-adorned bag—will help to bring the look together .

Workin' 9 to 5

Thanks to this savvy street styler, I just found my new favorite work outfit. I love how the blazer and pleated skirt add a sharp edge, while the sumptuous sweater softens things up a bit. Whether I’m running between previews or putting together a trend report, I know this uniform will help me to get the job done in style.

Double Leather

On its own, a buttoned leather jacket feels inherently polished. But pair this glossy layer with a matching skirt, and watch how it rises to a whole new level. For my next night out on the town, I’ll make sure to copy this exact ensemble.

Less Is More

As I mentioned earlier, I really don’t like to overthink my winter wardrobe. Luckily, solving this outfit equation isn’t complicated. All I’ll need is a black knee-length coat, straight-leg jeans, and a white fringed scarf to add a hint of contrast.

As an avid Gap shopper, trust me when I say some of the best discounts sneak onto the site weeks before Black Friday and Cyber Monday. This year proved no exception when the beloved American brand made the Gap x Hailey Bieber jeans more affordable than ever. That's right, the previously sold-out pairs are now 40 percent off, delivering the ultimate pre-Black Friday practice round.

Five months after Gap dropped its first denim collection with Bieber (which already required a restock), the Extra Baggy Jean and the Low-Rise Loose Jean reached record-low prices. The '90s-inspired denim is currently $53, marked down from $89.95.

But why now, when Black Friday is fast approaching? Perhaps it's a test to see if faithful Gap fans are still surveilling one of the summer's biggest fashion collabs. Or maybe it's to train our thumbs for Cyber Week, the shopping Olympics. Either way, I'm grateful, because after testing the Extra Baggy bottoms this summer, it's time to treat myself to the slimmer, low-rise silhouette.

The on-sale Gap x Hailey Bieber denim debuted over the summer, so it's no surprise that she hasn't worn them the winter way yet. All of the leftover fashion inspiration features the flip-flops trend, her go-to Guizio tank top, and lightweight linen basics.

So, this winter, style them like Bieber's other latest jeans looks, including the light-wash Levi's she slipped beneath a chainmail Chanel jacket on Oct. 16. Or copy her going-out formula for cold-weather occasions by styling stovepipe-style jeans with a statement outerwear option. See her fringed French girl blazer and fuzzy comfort-first cardigan for proof.

Now, Gap hasn't publicized its Black Friday plans just yet. But who says you have to wait until the day after Thanksgiving to treat yourself? Shop the rest of the 40-percent-off Gap x Hailey Bieber denim (with an extra 10 percent off in the app) below. That way, they'll arrive on your doorstep days before the sales even start.

Aritzia stocks stylish buys all year round, but the winter season is when the brand truly thrives. Between their signature Super Puff, the viral triangle scarf, and the faux leather staples that live in every editor's closet, the brand basically has a monopoly on cold-weather season.

The label does elevated comfort better than anyone else, having all but perfected the art of winter dressing. As a result, their best pieces tend to sell out fast. So if your seasonal wardrobe is in need of some rejuvenation, don't wouldn't hesitate to pull the trigger—because you might just find your wishlist completely sold out.

Aritzia always hosts a killer Black Friday sale, but these minimalist buys are so good, they'll undoubtedly be gone before the unofficial holiday hits. Ahead, get a jump on the best pieces.

Fashion girls everywhere felt closet FOMO as time ran out on Cyber Monday. But on December 2, one final Black Friday sale came back to life: Nike marked down Dakota Johnson's favorite V2K sneakers in sync with her latest workout.

Last week, with Black Friday still days away, Nike's sneaker sale was one of the first to catch Marie Claire's eye. Both Johnson's V2Ks in black and Jennifer Lawrence's in white were 25 percent off the original prices—a gift we assumed would disappear once Cyber Monday became Time to Wince at Your Bank Account Tuesday. Even so, Nike gave belated shoppers another chance to shop a sneakerhead staple.

Johnson's $135 V2K Runs are still $101 with the code "Cyber." On Dec. 2, the Materialists actor took them out of storage, reminding those who missed out last weekend to score a pair now. The chunky dad-core sneakers revealed her identity to the paparazzi outside Tracy Anderson's gym in L.A. After testing them in class, Johnson took the treads from studio-to-street, their extra-cushioned soles and monochrome sidewalls on full display. She's owned the all-black colorway since April, and yet, the V2Ks looked good as new.

Johnson re-styled the Nike V2Ks like she usually does: with Lululemon leggings, an oversize hoodie, and a neutral sports bra. Lawrence, on the other hand, isn't afraid to dress them up.

In October, she elevated the equally-versatile white-and-black V2Ks with Loewe's take on the track pants trend, a four-figure wool coat from Almada Label, and a suede Gimaguas tote bag. Luckily for you, the Oscar winner's colorway is also still on sale. With the same "Cyber" code, you can shop her early-aughts-inspired shoes for $94.

Since Nike wants every sneakerhead to find Johnson's V2Ks under the Christmas tree this year, it extended the Cyber Monday sale to end on Dec. 2. So, you only have a few hours to purchase the best-sellers before they return to their $135 price tag. Hurry: some Nike V2Ks offer stackable discount codes.

Friends! I hope you’re reading this while laying on the couch in a Netflix/Hulu/Apple TV-induced haze. Have you gotten a chance to check out my highly-specific holiday gift guide? I’ve gotten more than a few notes saying my categories—especially “gifts for the friend who is always on the verge of a crash out”—are very apropos. I suggest you give it a whirl.

I also suggest checking out Style at Large, Marie Claire's new network of fashion contributors who are bringing you their stories of personal style. From this collective, I’ve found winter hats that I can wear instead of my go-to beanie; new ways to style leggings; and walked away with unexpected color combinations I can try the next time I want to really throw a look. I highly recommend giving them a read.

And next week, we’ll welcome a new newsletter to the fold: The A-List Edit, curated by senior editor Halie LeSavage. Every other week, she’s testing celebrity street style trends and highlighting the ones anyone can wear. The first edition hits inboxes on December 6.

Now onto more pressing matters at hand: what I’m shopping for over this Black Friday/Cyber Monday/general sale week. I, personally, am often overwhelmed with the number of brands that are having sales during this time, so I do my best to be strategic. I purchase the exact items I want (no approximations), and rarely stray from the list of brands I would have shopped were things full price. Now is not the time to run amok and lose focus! Here’s where I’m starting.

J.Crew’s 40% off sale started earlier this week, so I’m taking the opportunity to stock up on my favorite socks. I mean, you all know how much I love these! I practically live in them from November to April. At this price, I’ll be refreshing my collection with a couple of black pairs and picking up a few new colors, too.

In true Capricorn form, I like to get a jump on my New Year’s resolutions. (Don’t judge me—start early, and it will become a habit by January 1.) One of them is to stop “rawdogging life,” as I’ve so eloquently told my wellness group chat. That means I’m adding supplements into my daily routine, starting with collagen (for my hair and skin), creatine (for my mind), and colostrum (for my gut).

30% off at Ralph Lauren means I’m finally adding the matching sweats to the gray hoodie I bought two years ago. And I reserve the right to circle back to this rugby and these socks as well.

Have I mentioned I’m getting married? Well, in case I haven’t…I am! Which means I’ve got a lot of events on deck where I’ll be wanting to wear cream, white, or off-white. While I definitely don’t have to buy something new for every occasion, Net-a-Porter’s up to 50% off sale has made a few things quite enticing.
