I wasn’t planning to shop this weekend, but after discovering five blowout sales on must-have summer styles across the internet, I’m having a change of heart.
At Anthropologie, you can score double-discounts on everything from summer dresses and breezy blouses to outfit-elevating sandals. Zara currently has wardrobe staples from just $8 (I don’t really need any more convincing than that). Nordstrom dropped more than 6,000 deals for its Anniversary Sale, while Free People quietly slashed prices on this season’s must-have shoes. And at Kate Spade Outlet, new bag arrivals are already up to 70-percent off.
5 Best Weekend Sales
Anthropologie Sale-on-Sale
By Anthropologie Drop-Waist Ruched Midi Dress
Anthropologie
All of Anthropologie’s sale items are an extra 40 percent off at checkout—but if you don’t feel like going through the 3,000-plus markdowns, you can shop my top six deals. I’m loving this 63-percent off drop-waist dress, this elevated tank with flattering pleats, these comfy pull-on pants with sweet eyelet details, and these outfit-making beaded sandals.

Zara $30-and-Under Sale
Oversized Gabardine Button-Up
Zara
For affordable, on-trend summer styles, Zara’s sale section is unbeatable. I managed to find a handful of things at the top of my wishlist for $30 and under, including an $8 basic tank, $18 oversized button-up, a mini dress with an oversized, lace-trim collar, and a bold midi skirt that will simplify getting dressed (wear it with a simple white tank and prepare for non-stop compliments).

Kate Spade Outlet New Arrivals
454 Large Shoulder Bag
Kate Spade Outlet
Kate Spade Outlet’s just dropped bags are already up to 70 percent off, and I found a style for every occasion. This slouchy, oversized tote is perfect for work (though the smaller version is great for everyday wear), this nylon crossbody is a must-have for rainy days, and the Madison crescent shoulder bag, which features floral appliques, is what I’ll wear when I want to dress up my basics.

Free People Summer Shoe Sale
Sam Edelman Kallen Sneakers
Free People
The best summer shoe deals are at Free People, where I found sporty-chic rope sandals, mesh espadrilles (a.k.a. two of summer’s biggest trends), and metallic heels up to 70 percent off. Of course, you can never go wrong with a pair of comfy sneakers: Sam Edelman’s bold Kallens and Puma’s Easy Rider Vintage styles are both just $50.

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale
Ugg Scuffita Genuine Shearling Slide Slippers
Nordstrom
Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale is finally here, with deals on everything from Coach Bags and Ugg slippers to NuFace’s sculpting, wrinkle-zapping microcurrent device, which now comes with a red light attachment. But the items I’m immediately adding to cart are Dolce Vita’s mesh Mary Janes (they’re a great lookalike for the designer pair Dakota Johnson just wore) and these comfy-cool pull-on pants.
