You may have noticed some posts from our friends at the Strategist on the Cut. They’ll be dropping in every now and again, sharing their expertise on the basics you don’t have time to research and the weird and wonderful things you don’t yet know you need.
This week’s sales roundup is a biggie … Below, the never-on-sale beauty serums, $7 enamel bowls, and 80-percent-off men’s boots we dug up.
We’ve been on a bit of a Macy’s-clearance-bin kick — so many insanely cheap home goods in there, if you do some digging. For instance, this trio of enamel-coated bowls, which, if you do the math, comes out to two bucks a bowl. Meanwhile, you get free shipping with a purchase of $49 or more, so might we interest you in …
… Tavi Gevinson’s favorite facial spray (normally $7), plus a rose hips mask (ideal for dry skin, and normally $20), on sale for $18!
It’s not quite the season for this men’s fleece headband, but it will definitely still be in style next year.
This 20-piece (i.e., for four people) dainty dinnerware set from Godinger is an almost unheard-of 82 percent off.
We like the chunky cuffs on this otherwise traditional striped cotton blouse from Equipment.
We love a plastic tumbler, and these, from Kate Spade, feature subtle little gold dots.
Whenever we see a DVF wrap dress for under $200, we like to flag it. This one is made from 100 percent woven silk satin.
This wrap dress is not as cheap, but is so elegant we had to include it.
Speaking of not-cheap … these Proenza Schouler heels — but they were even more expensive ($595) at one point.
It’s almost showing-your-toes season, and how sweet are these slides from London shoe line Miista?
If you have any summer weddings on the horizon, this floral Clare V. would make a nice festive touch to an outfit. There’s a leopard-print Clare V. clutch on sale, too.
These cherry-adorned shortie pajamas from Eberjey are perfect for spring.
These Adidas track pants are more flattering than your standard pair of track pants.
A cat mirror that would be perfect for a kid’s room (or your own room).
Some late-breaking sales news: Urban Outfitters is having a one-day-only bag sale (this Friday, March 29), where a whole bunch of rarely on-sale backpacks, totes, and the like are 30 percent off — like this classic Fjällräven backpack, which comes in a rainbow of colors. (There’s also a mini-Kanken and a padded-laptop-Kanken on sale, too).
A fancy-looking Matt & Nat belt bag you don’t have to feel any qualms about (because it’s made from vegan leather).
This Patagonia backpack is waterproof, made from recycled polyester, and features a padded laptop sleeve. There’s another maroon backpack on sale, as well as a Patagonia belt bag we’ve written about before in previous sales posts.
An extra good deal, since this duffle was discounted to begin with.
And a fun Polo Ralph Lauren alternative to an L.L. Bean bag — perfect for summer weekends out of town.
Not as good of a deal as the Godinger set above, but this “swirl-banded” array of dishes from Mikasa is really lovely.
We continue to be proud of knowing who Something Navy is, so we felt okay putting two PJ sets in this roundup.
A sequined kids’ backpack, perfect for the li’l ham in your life.
Just a few things we missed from the Cos sale we wrote about earlier this week: Maybe it’s because the model looks like Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy, but this dress does really seem like something she might have worn.
Some sweet bell sleeves on this relaxed silk-cotton (and machine-washable) T-shirt dress.
This is a loony-banana price for these leather boots. They’re available in black, too.
Just throwing it out there: one of us got a Coyuchi robe for our husband and he loves it.
Last week, we noticed that a bunch of beauty products that are never on sale were on sale at Net-a-Porter. Turns out, stuff’s still on sale! Like this Diptyque Baies candle.
And Charlotte Tilbury’s famous Goddess Skin Clay Mask.
Oh! And the cult Vintner’s Daughter anti-aging serum we previously wrote about and which sold out is no longer sold-out!
This metallic Missoni Mare headband will, as the description promises, “bring a vibrant finish to relaxed summer edits.”
It’s the red stitching that makes these white jeans for us.
A shibori-esque pillow that will look great with pretty much any kind of solid-colored couch.
A soon-to-be-seasonally-appropriate seersucker jumpsuit. (Say that ten times, fast.)
If there are any black-tie events in your future … here’s a dress from Aidan Mattox at an extra 40 percent off (applied at checkout), which we missed in our Anthro sale roundup.
