The Saks Designer Sale Is A Material Girl’s Dream Come True—Here’s What Our Always On-Trend Fashion Writer Is Buying

Attention all material girls, savvy shoppers and fashion lovers, the Saks designer sale just started which means that hundreds of designer items are up to 50 percent off. There’s a good chance that the designer piece you’ve been eyeing for months is finally available at a lower price point. Forget dupes, you can get the real thing.

While I find myself making impulsive shopping decisions at stores like Zara, I take a completely different approach to designer purchases. I often treat sites like Saks, Net-a-Porter and Moda Operandi more like a Pinterest board and less like a shopping destination by scrolling through designer outfits for inspiration. If I find myself revisiting an item over and over again, it makes its way to my “want” list. When big shopping opportunities (like the Saks designer sale) roll around, I already have a curated list of items I’m searching for on sale. Sometimes the exact item I want isn’t available, but I’m able to find something similar at a better price point which leaves me feeling just as satisfied.

Right now, I’m eyeing luxury pool slides, occasion dresses and maybe a new shoulder bag. Saks has brands like Alexander McQueen, Staud, Milly and Coach on sale which means it’ll be easy to check items off my list. Plus, if you’re a lucky in-stock size, just know I’m envious that you can get the Balenciaga sneakers I’ve been obsessing over for months at a major discount.

I’ve scrolled through every designer item on sale and curated a new “want” list to share with you! May my purchases inspire yours.

Love ’em or hate ’em, you can get these sporty Balenciaga sneakers at an insane discount. I am personally obsessed with them!

Twist Sterling Silver Wide Hoop Earrings

When I find a pair of earrings that look good with everything and won’t tarnish in the shower, I’m willing to splurge on them. I love this twisted sterling silver pair.
