It’s nearing the end of the winter season and aside from looking forward to warmer days, we’re more than a little excited about the many fabulous sales coming our way. With bargains and deals aplenty it helps to have a game plan to get the best out of your budget.
Here are our top stylist-verified tips to shop a sale like an absolute queen…
- Clinch the classics
Sales are the perfect opportunity to update your wardrobe with some much-needed staples that’ll still look effortlessly stylish a year from now. Think crisp white linen shirts, a great pair of jeans, a slick pair of black heels, and a gorgeous blazer.
- Go for monochromes
White, navy, brown and black never go out of style so shopping these colours at your favourite sale is usually a safe bet.
- Accessorise, accessorise and accessorise some more
It’s the last official month of winter but that doesn’t mean the chilly days are over yet. Make sure you check out the sales at Mall of the North for hats, scarves, beanies, gloves, ponchos, throws, fluffy blankets, and hot water bottles. And if you don’t use it this year your future self will thank you when next winter rolls around.
- Get that splurge item for less
If you’ve had your eye on that gorgeous-but-just-not-in-the-budget item, then picking it up on sale is the way to go. Keep an eye on those sales racks for hidden gems. Who knows, you may even get that big ticket item for 50% less.
- Enjoy the experience
Rows and rows of sale items might seem daunting at first which is why it pays to head to Mall of the North early and spend the day browsing at your own pace. Just go with the flow, take a break with a hot cup of coffee and tick off your wish list one item at a time!
