Cheryl Shops

 Sometimes my posts are written days in advance; sometimes I'm working up until my deadline (and sometimes a little beyond that). This post is an example of the latter. I was intending to post a bunch of ridiculously marked-down sale items for your buying pleasure, but in researching this post, I realized that the most exciting deals were the ones on fall styles. They might not be 80% off, but I'd rather spend a little bit more on things for the upcoming season, rather than ones that I can wear a few more weeks, then stow away until next year. So here are my favorite buy now, wear soon pieces, plus more Labor Day sales for your bargain-shopping pleasure, because this is a safe place. 

1. Although I am a big fan of her aesthetic, I have sadly never bought anything from Jenni Kayne, but her 25% off select items promo may change that, starting with this snuggly-soft bouclé sweater. 

Jenni Kayne bouclé crewneck sweater $295 (25% off with code SUNSHINE25 through 9/7).

2. I've had my eye on these Ba&sh boots for awhile and now that they're on sale, of course they're sold out in my size (although they're still available in everything but a 39). 

Ba&sh Colt boots $197.50 (extra 20% off with code LDAY20)

3. I have apparently missed out on the summer trend that is shoulder-padded T-shirts, but it's never too late. 

ASOS sleeveless T-shirt $20.80 (20% off when you spend $150 with code 20LABOR150)

4. I use the crap out of my Lo & Sons travel bags, and I have a feeling I'd do the same with this convertible belt bag/crossbody/clutch of theirs. 

Lo & Sons the Waverly 2 $101.40 (extra 10% off with code SUMMERTIME)

5. This J.Crew sweater coat is a longer version of my beloved blazer; this one is already in my cart and I'll be checking out momentarily. 

J.Crew Ella sweater coat $168 (40% off with code BYESUMMER through 9/8)

6. Do I need another pair of jeans? No. Would I wear these incredibly flattering-looking skinny-straight cigarette jeans from my favorite denim brand? Probably.

Frame Ali high-rise cigarette jeans $89 (reg. $215; sale ends 9/7)

7. This skirt kind of looks like a big diaper, but it looks much better on, and there's nothing chicer than wearing white after Labor Day. 

COS draped midi skirt $115 (up to 30% off through 9/7)

8. These are the best kind of pants: they look polished, but they have an elastic waistband, making them extra comfy. Because, let's face it: we're staying inside for the rest of the year. 

Madewell Huston pants $78 (40% off with code HIFALL through 9/9)
