What to buy on sales: Hits summer wardrobe

Began the first stage of sales, which means, on the weekend, shopping centers and stores will be filled with people who hastily try on things with labels -30% and -50%. If the prospect of spending half a day in a room with bright lamps and air conditioners running at full power scares you - pay attention to discounts in online stores. In addition, online shopping allows you to calmly and with the arrangement buy a thing, after weighing all the pros and cons of the purchase.

There are still two summer months ahead of us, which means that actual light things will be needed for hot weather for a long time. On the other hand, the concept of seasonality in terms of clothes is gradually dying off, and silk dresses and pajama pants can be worn at any time of the year. It’s better to search for the summer wardrobe hits in stores right now: usually fashionable things of discreet models and good fabrics are disassembled in two accounts. In addition, judging by the lookbooks of the 2017 cruise collections, mules, open shoulders and Cossacks will still be relevant in the next year.

Muly on a flat sole

No need to have a special flair to understand - the most fashionable and, as it turned out, the most controversial summer shoes will stay with us for a long time (in our latitudes, at least until the first frost). Slippers with a closed nose is not the thing that you will try to sell in the confusion before the onset of next summer - brands like Yigal Azrouel and their resort-2017 collection prove this. Unfortunately, half of the mules from our list is already sold out. But if you hurry, other successful options can be searched even in the mass market. In this case, the model does not matter: and the "sneakers" without a backdrop, and woven slippers will be equally good. If you are going to invest - pay attention to the options of suede or velvet.

Things with sequins

Bright shiny things from lame or with sequins, attracting attention, are always relevant. Especially this summer. The main thing is to balance the image: with a skirt or trousers covered with multi-colored sequins, a simple T-shirt or shirt will be combined best. Who knows, maybe your grandchildren will sort out these things on the entresol and enjoy the finds just as we are now - vintage dresses from the 70s and 80s. Things with sequins, as a rule, are not cheap, but this is justified: options from the mass market often lose half of the precious sequins in a short time - little grandchildren have little left.

Dress combinations

It would seem that by the time this article was written, the number of references to the word “combination” as the “most fashionable dress of the season” all I want is to roll my eyes. Nevertheless, this simple thing in the summer can save you from the long charges in the morning. In winter, such a dress can be worn with a warm cardigan or turtleneck. It is better to choose minimalistic options without a print - such a dress can last more than one year.

Open shoulders

Everything is simple: the main tags - "Victorianism", "Spain" and "conciseness." No macrame, white flax, perforation and any associations with the young peasant. In this case, a blouse or dress with open shoulders will last more than one season. Want to spend a large amount on one thing? Let it be a dress by J.W.Anderson or another thing of a famous brand. In a few years there will be an opportunity to sell it to experts almost for the same amount that it was purchased.

Bags bags

Long journeys - the leitmotif of a huge number of collections. As in the 70s, where this soft, shapeless model of the bag comes from, designers rely on the spirit of the times: more and more people take the thought of finding themselves. From here and popularity of backpacks and bags bags which are much more capacious, than seem. Models with beads and ethnic prints will be just as relevant next summer as laconic and strict. We are for both options. You can search for expensive premium handbags on well-known Net-A-Porter, Farfetch, Shopbop, The Outnet and Matchesfashion, which have already started the competition "Who will offer the most generous discount." On the other hand, you can take a chance and wait until the price for the desired model becomes even lower.

Sailor's collar

This trend will logically replace the tall Victorian collars we wore last season. The popularity of large decorative collars on blouses and dresses will reach a peak next fall and winter, but nothing prevents to look for such in stores now. The mass market is practically useless in this case, but the expensive brands that look like girlish aesthetics, like Miu Miu, are quite enough. Be farsighted: in this case it is better to buy a collar at a discount right now, everyone will buy them in the fall for the full price.

Things with frills and ruffles

Giant and delicate, one noticeable or many small ones - flounces and frills in any capacity are good, especially if purchased with a generous discount. Most complementarily, in everyday life, blouses and tops with lots of frills look like regular jeans or bermuda shorts made from noble materials. Volumetric bell skirts or very wide pants are good in combination with them often only on the catwalk and in advertising campaigns. Pay attention to the entire well-known set of mass-market like Zara and Mango, and the expensive modern brands that made the frills part of their DNA. By the way, in Russian stores of expensive brands like Leform, Aizel, Kuznetsky Most 20 or SVMoscow, you can also find items with flounces - and now you can also buy them with a good discount.

Straw accessories

Pay attention to the traditionally summer material - straw - it is worth it if you have a trip to the sea. At a discount, you can find a quality basket bag, which not only does not fall apart in one summer, but will also be pleasing to the eye in winter as a noticeable part of the interior. At the same time, pay attention to the variety of hats and straw hats on ASOS, Mango and Need Supply Co., so as not to look for a hat on the way to the beach.

Tie-dye things

Rarely what summer does without the typical "festival" elements. The main thing is not to wear them all at once in the city - and to the fringe, and strange glasses, and Cossacks, - but to apply all the elements in doses. Tie dyed things can always be found at discounts in Zara and Topshop. Expensive and noble dresses and accessories should be found on sale at Saint Laurent and Altuzarra.

Cossacks

Rough shoes, namely, the Cossacks everywhere will begin to appear in stores closer to the fall. At discounts in the mass market, these shoes can be purchased at Mango. If the soul requires more and you realize the whole untapped potential of this shoe (it can be combined with flying silk dresses and wide trousers) - to Givenchy and Valentino. The most generous offer awaits the most daring - insane silver shoes Marc Jacobs.
