Splurge-Worthy Wishlist!

/

We adore a good high-low mix, which often means pairing our latest deal finds with the extra-special wishlist pieces we’ve been eyeing! Everyone’s definition of ‘splurge-worthy’ is different, but for us that usually means it’s so classic that it’ll never go out of style (think: simple, timeless and streamlined!) or so unique you’ll never get bored of its details (like over-the-top embellishments, bright colors, to-die-for patterns!). If you’re in the mood to treat yourself yet unsure where to start, we recommend looking into original art, a dress that’s equal parts beautiful + versatile, a great everyday handbag, dreamy fine linens or a bold piece of jewelry that makes any outfit sing!

We’re regularly checking the Tory Burch Sale page for new additions, and now’s the perfect time to invest in summer styles you can enjoy for the rest of the season, as well as for many years to come (take a peek at this floral kaftan, this printed button dress, these striped loafers and this eyelet midi dress!). We’re always combing the designer sale pages at our favorite luxury retailers like Saks, Neiman Marcus, MatchesFashion, Bergdorf Goodman, Bloomingdale’s, Nordstrom, Moda Operandi and Net-a-Porter…it’s especially exciting when the styles we’ve been coveting all season finally get marked down! We love working in investment-quality pieces around the house too, and right now all custom upholstery is 20% off at Serena & Lily and you can enjoy major discounts on the entire Balboa rattan collection! Happy shopping!
