This year, summer sales are a huge event. It’s a side effect of the lockdown we’ve been living these last few months. During this period, commerce in general, dropped drastically, forcing the retail to start summer sales earlier with incredible discounts. So we selected for you the best sales, with offers that you will wear many seasons.
Shops are sitting on enormous stocks of clothes and accessories; hence the seriously tempting offers. And here come summer sales alert alarm, girls! Think twice before spending more than you should. Even if money is not a problem, you don’t need to buy impulsively and have things piling up in your wardrobe that you won’t wear. So, before anything, read our article How to Buy Less, Shop Better and Be More Stylish.
In short, these are the three questions you should have in mind before entering in sales fever mood:
1- What do I really need?
2- Will this piece work with my current wardrobe?
3- How much I will wear this garment?
To help you to find the right pieces, we reviewed all summer sales and chose just seasonless brands and pieces that we know you will wear in Fall too.

Arket
Arket is a great destination to summer sales because their style basically doesn’t change. It is one of the best places to find classic pieces in the minimalist Scandinavian style. We especially like the wide cut and good-quality material of the clothes. Breton style tops are timeless and the fluid dresses can also de worn as tops, layered over leggings or straight-cut trousers.
Cos
COS stands for basic chic. We selected garments on sale, that you can wear in all seasons and at great prices. In the best 1940s fashion that inspired many designers for their S/S 2020 collections, waist-cinching jackets are elegant and flattering. Another hero in every fashion enthusiast’s wardrobe is the trench coat; if you don’t own one yet, now is the time to get the most versatile outwear ever. Classic hues like light blue and beige are super wearable because they go with most colours.
NET-A-PORTER
Net-a-Porter is the go-to address for affordable luxury. Find here clothes on sales to wear at parties, weddings, dinners and special occasions. We also hand-picked discount pieces that will elevate the rest of your wardrobe. Additionally, we paid attention to current trends as the folklore-inspired embroideries that add a touch of handmade, slow fashion and craftsmanship, giving a vintage feel to your dress. And as the romantic Vichy pattern is back this year, there’s also the perfect Gingham dress in our selection.
Mango
From sales at Mango, we chose the best garments in beige, which is the colour you can never have too much of in your wardrobe. Mango offers chic clothes that you can wear now and in fall too, for example, ruffle and knitted pieces that are some of the 5 AW 20/21 trends emerged from Milan Fashion Week.
The Outnet
Stripes and dots are classic prints that will be with you for many summers. And black and white and navy are always welcome in a fashion savvy’s wardrobe. Another major trend this year is patchwork; the ruffle-trimmed patchwork-effect dress has a contemporary, sustainable feel. Good news is that The Outnet, net-a-porter outlet, is on sales all year long.
And Other Stories
Midi pleated skirts are seasonless and look elegant for women of all ages. Pastel colours, bright green and yellow are hues you can wear in all seasons, and the classic denim is a safe bet that you’ll wear over and over again. Additionally, we selected a silver top as we’ll see metallic numbers this fall and winter too. The best tric is going on sales spree already knowing next season’s trends.
