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.
For this week’s Friday Sales roundup, we’ve unearthed a heavily discounted sports bra, an always-in-style Lacoste polo, a 60 percent off Mansur Gavriel tote, and the perfect gift for the Yoshi fanatic.
This high-neck Chantelle sports bra has a clasp in the back so it can be adjusted.
An ever-so-slightly-rusty red T-shirt with a thick (but not too thick) neck.
A floral dinnerware set that comes with actually deep bowls (we hate a shallow bowl!).
There is little more classic than a navy-blue Lacoste polo.
Also, as we noted, the same sale is happening at East Dane. Senior editor Anthony Rotunno said that the best thing he bought last decade was a “durable and versatile” waxed jacket from Barbour, and this one is now under $400.
Speaking of sales we’ve written about before, the Dermstore 20 percent off “event” is on through March 9, which means there’s still time to get this beloved Paula’s Choice liquid exfoliant.
Among the items Rio would buy from the sale is this vitamin-C serum. “Hand to heart,” she wrote, “I feel like this serum sped up lifting some dark marks I had on my face twice as fast as anything I used in the past.”
As well as this deep-conditioning hair mask. Says Rio: “I myself use it twice a week — it’s a whole lot cheaper than my absolute favorite $71 Christophe Robin mask and is truly very nearly as good.”
At $298, this Mansur Gavriel work tote is in no way cheap, but it is rare to see one for 60 percent off.
Right about now is the best time to buy scarves and coats and hats; this Acne scarf (which will never go out of style) is half off.
This va-va-voom dress from British line Raey has a marble-y animal-print pattern.
We find it nearly impossible to resist a “luxe” sweatshirt, especially if its striped.
This stylist-beloved hair dryer has an auto pause and a “volume booster” setting.
There’s a bedding sale at Walmart, so if you’ve ever wanted a mint-green metal bed frame … now’s the time.
We are approaching prime silk-button-down season, and this lovely Everlane number, made from “eco-conscious Clean Silk” is 30 percent off and available in sizes OO to 16.
This slightly stretchy long-sleeved tee is meant to be tucked in.
Sale items at Anthropologie are an extra 25 percent off. We like the black border of this velvet pillow.
This vest-slash-wrap (wrest?) is perfect for having around on those days when it’s neither here nor there weather-wise.
It should be noted that these elegant black suede flats (with a just-high-enough heel) run a little big.
Not to be too hysterical, but if ever there was a time to have a multi-tool on hand …
One side of this pale-pink linen duvet cover features delicate stripes.
Not the most massive discount in the world, but for $17 this rope storage basket is a good deal — and ideal for tossing laundry, toys, blankets, etc. into.
Thanks to our colleagues at Polygon for alerting us to the fact that this plush Yoshi egg (courtesy of Club Mocchi Mocchi, which makes officially licensed Nintendo creatures) is 40 percent off. (Note: It doesn’t ship till March 16.)
