These Fashion Essentials Had Me Adding to Cart This Memorial Day
Ever go to an online sale and find that after a few minutes you have 12 tabs open and a cart full? Well, that's me when I was looking through the Memorial Day sale section recently. They were a far better offer, they were so fashionable, and in my head I started creating looks for vacations, dinners, brunch dates, and more.
What I really enjoy about Memorial Day sales is that it's the ideal opportunity to buy clothes you're going to wear again and again! It's when I begin to think more about fashion and wardrobe items that can elevate any outfit, such as timeless jewelry, bags, shoes, and attire like dresses.
I have been spending too much time at the Neiman Marcus women's sale at the same time, and it was a dangerous selection of good products. All the accessories and clothing looked elegant, high-end and surprisingly wearable. Here are some of the fashion essentials that made me add to my cart right away.
1. Ysabel Combo Midi Dress
The Ysabel Combo Midi Dress immediately caught my attention for its beauty and simplicity. I really like dresses that look well done but don't necessarily look like a lot of work. And this one is in the right balance. It's perfect for summer dinners, events, or even summer vacation evenings when you would like to appear elevated.
2. Danae 18k Gold Diamond Chain Necklace
This necklace is a necklace that is definitely a piece for any outfit. The thin gold chain with subtle diamonds creates an elegant and luxurious appeal without appearing too ostentatious. I particularly enjoy pieces that can be used for casual wear and dress for special occasions, and this piece certainly is versatile enough for both!
3. Romy 60mm Leather Pumps
The Romy 60mm Leather Pumps might be a classic piece of elegance. I definitely like the lower heel height and these look more stylish but more wearable which means more suitable for longer events or dinners. They are that much more of a designer-shoe vibe but never quite goes out of style.
4. Mini Madeline Earrings
The design is gorgeous and simple, immediately drew my attention to this piece. These Mini Madeline Earrings are delicate, sleek and can be added to any outfit, whether casual or dressy, and worn almost every day without a problem.
5. Liquid Lucite Gold Link Bracelet
The Liquid Lucite Gold Link Bracelet looks so modern and attractive that it definitely catches attention. I enjoy the contrast of the clear lucite and the gold accents as it brings the bracelet a bold, yet elegant look that pairs well with casual or dressy attire.
6. Solitaire Ring
The delicate scallop design paired with the brilliant diamond gives this ring a luxurious yet stylish feel, making it perfect for both everyday wear and special occasions. It's elegant, romantic and naturally beautiful but not very heavy and cheap .
7. Shearling Trim Trapper Hat
The Shearling Trim Trapper Hat is a snug, chic hat for easy layering for winter looks. The soft shearling finish is definitely my favorite detail, as it makes the hat warm and luxurious, while still being trendy and wearable for everyday wear.
8. Cheyenne Beaded Blazer with Brooches
This blazer looks bolder, glammier and trendy without being too much. The beadwork and brooch details make it a beautiful item to wear, particularly for a special occasion or “dressed up” moments. It sure is one of those “beachfront” types of accessories that people will rush to praise right away.
9. Crystal Mirror Silk Foulard
Wearing a silk scarf always elevates an outfit and this one is just amazing! I enjoy the versatility of it as it can be worn in a variety of ways, such as around the neck, over a purse, or even pulled into your hair for a stylish fashion-girl attire.
10. Logo Acetate Oval Sunglasses
Oval sunglasses are so stylish and chic in their design that they will surely add that trendy appeal to your ordinary looks. I particularly appreciate sunglasses that are trendy but also long-lasting, and these are just as long lasting as they are trendy.
11. Faux Shearling-Trimmed Mittens
Although it's a Memorial Day sale, these mittens really caught my eye because they look so super cozy and fancy. The faux shearling adds a nice touch of softness, style, and looks great for the colder months of the year.
12. T-Bar Chain Belt
The T-Bar Chain Belt definitely looks like one of those items that simply restyle an outfit. It looks great as an accent piece worn over a dress, blazer or high-waisted garment, and can effect a refined look without a lot of work.
Final Thoughts
Memorial Day sales are always risky in the best sense of the word; they're just so pretty to look at. From vintage jewellery to high-end dresses and sculptural accessories, this sale truly had a lot of items that just had to go into my cart.
I just love the Neiman Marcus sale selection of elevated and wearable items. Not only are they fashionable, quick buys, but many of the pieces are timeless enough that they can be worn over and over again throughout the year and for various events.
They're pretty much all the things I want to do with my clothes, but haven't gotten around to yet. I want to look at my clothes for my new look, get more outings, take more pictures, and just wear all the outfits I've saved online that I have never worn before. And if you begin to feel your cart is suddenly a lot fuller after looking at these pieces, well, so does mine.
