You guys might know how I feel about a Saks Fifth Ave sale at this point. It’s the kinda thing that really inspires me, especially when I’m in a creative outfit rut. You may also know that I’m fall-fashion obsessed, so that’s where the wind took me with this roundup of outfits (of course). I threw in some options that work for that weird in-between weather, too.
Right now, Saks has their ‘First Look Sale’ with up to 25% off the original prices. I found some great stuff in their 70% off designer sale, too from lots of our fave brands: Alice + Olivia, Cinq À Sept, SKIMS and L’Agence (just to name a few). And if you’re curious which piece we all agreed is amazing, it’s these jeans. Ahhh fall can’t come soon enough!
On Sale At Saks: 5 Cute Looks
I ended up going a little more neutral with these five outfits (and I’m starting to think the fall just brings this out in me). But, despite the neutral colors…these pieces are decidedly not-boring. It’s all about an interesting silhouette and cool textures. And we can’t forget the accessories!
1. In Bloom
The real star of the show here: these Alice + Olivia jeans. Never did I think floral jeans would be on my radar, but these are, quite frankly, freaking beautiful. I’d keep it super simple with a white tank on the warmer fall days and dainty heels (both under $100!), but we’ve had a huge crush on vintage-inspired jewelry recently…so I had to include these slightly dramatic flower earrings.
2. Turn Up The Cuffs
Two things I have a hard time resisting: stripes and a monochromatic outfit. I feel like no matter the color, if you wear different tones of it together, it always looks chic. A recent thing I’ve had a hard time resisting: super cuffed jeans. The different fabric and texture makes an otherwise basic beige wayyy more exciting. Ya know?
3. Vaguely Varsity
Preppy, varsity-style clothes are everywhere at the moment, and don’t get me wrong, I love it…but more so in a ‘vague’ way. This knit tank feels a bit more preppy than my usual style, so I had to pair it with a denim skirt and tall boots…for balance.
4. Moody Blues
Sooo, yeah. I can’t get enough of the denim-on-denim looks right now (and be prepared for more to come). I am so excited to play around with all the different ways to wear it this fall. One of these ways is with a denim vest and wide-leg jeans in the same(ish) dark wash. But I wanna wear it in a more sleek way rather than a yeehaw kinda way (although that always works, too). Pointed-toe, chocolate brown heels and this organza trench in a similar color to the denim did exactly that. Cue my latest obsession of trenches with interesting fabrics…
5. Texture Play
An easy way to make all black (or neutral) outfits have some interest: textures. From the knit cardigan, the earrings, the bag and the shoes…they all have some obvious texture to them. Since the jeans have a more dramatic flare, I’d wear a fitted bodysuit and keep the cardigan open. I like that the accessories, shoes and bodysuit make the cardigan feel a little less precious, too.
Happy almost fall!
