Likely, the last ‘big’ sale before Black Friday, Afterpay Day is the perfect time to tick off some of those items that have been patiently waiting on your wishlist. Starting August 14, the sale’s already stirring with early markdowns from The Iconic, Adore Beauty, Hommey, St. Agni, and more.
As for what’s on our own personal wishlist? Well, for starters, my long-serving hair straightener gave out this morning (RIP), so a replacement has suddenly shot to the top of the list. I’m also restocking a few everyday staples: this handbag-sized slick stick (20% off), and the texturising spray I’ve sworn by for over a decade—also conveniently 20% off. I’ve also been meaning to try this much-hyped natural deodorant, and now feels like a good time to commit. Looking ahead to summer, I’m also missing this bronzer—so yes, it’s on the repurchase list too.
On the fashion front: I bought these chic, surprisingly walkable mules at full price not long ago, and now they’re over 50% off (naturally). I’ve worn them multiple times already. This bow-back blazer has lived rent-free in my head since I saw it on the runway, but I’m actually leaning toward this inspector-style trench instead—it’s more practical and 60% off, which helps.
For the home: after a months-long hunt for a minimalist, headboard-free wooden bed frame, I finally landed on this one from Koala (currently 25% off)—it ticks every box if you’re also looking. I also upgraded my bedding with these 1200TC tailored pillowcases, and I don’t think I can go back. As for the kitchen, a few Alessi pieces I’ve had on my wishlist forever are noew up to 50% off.
Beyond personal picks, there are plenty of gems too good not to share: 30% off these St. Agni boots (arguably a great dupe for these Acne ones, also on sale). This faux suede jacket is a very solid 30% off. I also spotted this wool jumper that looks very similar to a now discontinued P. Johnson Femme piece (a knit I always get compliments on), but at a much friendlier price.
Still surprised to see these Khaite-esque flats in stock and now almost 40% off. And, if you’re prepping for event season: Christopher Esber and Meski have major markdowns. Then there’s the icy blue Lee Matthews mini that we haven’t stopped thinking about—40% off. Oh, and don’t skip the online outlet section at Scanlan Theodore. There are treasures to be found there.
