summer sale season! (and my picks)

All of those Memorial Day deals in your inbox felt crazy, I know. Too good to resist. But if you did, if you were patient, your virtue is about to be rewarded. Shopbop, Barneys, Saks and Net-A-Porter all launched their summer sales today, and there are goodies aplenty.

Shopbop: The best thing about the Shopbop sale? All of my picks would transition to fall so seamlessly, it’s practically a fall preview sale. If you’re after any Alexander Wang, Rag & Bone or boyfriend jeans, those were the standouts in this crop. shopbop sale picks, via shopping's my cardio

Sweater, T by Alexander Wang, $113 (40% off) / Newbury booties, Rag & Bone, $346 (30% off) / Petty booties, Sam Edelman, $91 (30% off) / Stratus sweatshirt, Helmut Lang, $168 (20% off

I know that Helmut Lang sweatshirt doesn’t look exciting, and it’s only 20% off, but when you’re wishing you had a cool jacket to throw on over a gauzy dress all summer long? This is the one. Oh, and I actually have those Sam Edelmans – they’re fantastic for summer, but they run at least a half size big. Word of warning.

Barneys: Jewelry is the big ticket pick for the Barneys sale – it’s almost never marked down, but there are five pages of options this time around. Gorgeous costume options from Lanvin, Balenciaga and Marni, as well as fine jewelry choices. It’s also a great time to splurge on one really edgy fashion piece you’ll cherish – like possibly that Rick Owens jacket.

Net-a-Porter: I wait every year, like a panther in the tall grass (with a gold card), for Net-a-Porter’s spring markdowns. Bags and shoes are where it’s at with this sale, but you have to move fast – NAP shoppers are pros.
