SSENSE Fall Sale - What To Buy
We all love a good sale, especially when it's from my personal favourite retailer - SSENSE.
In this post I've gathered up some items that I think will go fast. Hint - this suit from The Frankie Shop is on my list and it's nearly sold out! (BTW - the Bea boxy blazer and Bea trouser are sold as separates. I sized up in the pant and got a medium.)
What will you be buying at the sale?

SHOP NEW BALANCE SNEAKERS
Ssense just restocked New Balance sneakers and they have an amazing selection online. My top pick is the New Balance BB480, a dupe for the highly sought-after New Balance 550. Do you see the resemblance?
I’M WEARING:
Blazer, The Frankie Shop Bea boxy blazer.
Pants, The Frankie Shop Bea trouser.
Sweater, The Frankie Shop Vanessa Padded Shoulder Sweatshirt.
Necklaces, Julia Vaughn and David Yurman.
Sneakers, Coverse High Tops in white.
Sunglasses, Tom Ford.
Baseball cap, Lululemon Baller hat.
Tote, Celine clear plastic tote bag.
Pouch, Louis Vuitton Monogram Toiletry 19 pouch.
THE FRANKIE SHOP
Popular New York label, The Frankie Shop, has been on my radar for some time now. Lucky for us Canadians, SSENSE has stocked some of their iconic pieces like suits, padded shoulder tank tops, and sweatshirts. I've noticed their stuff is selling fast so act quickly if you have something from TFS on your wish list.

SHOP EVERYTHING ELSE
If you haven't already checked out the EVERYTHING ELSE page on SSENSE, then you don't know what you're missing. Some of my top picks are Telka bathrobes and towels. The Copenhagen-based brand is made from 100% organic cotton and just gets softer with each wash.
PhoneSoap makes a device sanitizer which has become a must-have for me during the pandemic. I keep mine in the front hallway of my house to make sure that I sanitize my iPhone as soon as I get home.
I also swear by the Fellow kettle. The design is chic enough that you want to leave it on display, but it's also proven to be the best kettle I've ever bought. The spout is narrow, allowing for control when pouring water over your morning coffee. You can brew the perfect cup of tea or coffee as Fellow has a temperate range of 135-212 °F / 57-100 °C. And finally, it has a 60 min temperature hold time and a stopwatch feature, making it a must-have for coffee and tea lovers.

The SSENSE SALE Is Here! My Tips for Shopping Markdowns.
Twice a year the SSENSE sale comes around I swear it feels even more exciting than Christmas. Yes, that’s a tall order but I’ve scored some pretty amazing things over the years - Givenchy high heels for $200, Isabel Marant boots from $1300 down to $300, and Saint Laurent studded loafers for $250.
Now more than ever it’s important to focus on buying pieces that will serve you well for years to come, not just a single season. Buy less and focus on quality over quantity. Look for pieces that will make you happy and feel more confident when you wear them.
Finally, review your closet, make a list of what needs replacing or what you’re currently missing - ie, a classic spring trench coat.
With that being said, below are some looks I’ve put together based on items that I have my eye on - mainly loungewear and sensible statement shoes - like those amazing 3.1 Phillip Lim platform sandals that I’m dying to get my hands on.
Happy shopping!
Take it from @josefinehj, loungewear can be really cute when dressed up with gold hoops and white Nike socks. Crossing my fingers that her navy t-shirt from LA brand, Sporty & Rich will be included in today’s markdowns.
I don’t know about you but going back to wearing normal clothes is going to be hard once we come out of quarantine. This Olsen inspired outfit is more dressed up than sweatpants without compromising on comfort.
This outfit by @rosiehw is what you would wear lounging around the house on the weekend. It’s cute, feminine but comfortable. I’m seriously hoping that these Aime Leon Dore pants will be included in the markdowns because I’m obsessed with the color!
Another outfit to ease us into normal life once quarantine is over. This outfit by @brittanybathgate is perfect for spring/summer. Since we can’t see her shoes in the photo, I styled the above lookbook with crossover sandals from Marni, which are available in ivory or black. *Please go on sale!*

Grab These on Sale Before They're Gone!
The end of sale season is one of the best times to shop! Sure, pickings are slim but if you have the patience, it's totally worth checking out the sale corner of your favourite store or spending an hour or two online. Let's be real though, it was closer to a full day event for me...
Retailers are reducing prices like crazy right now to make room for the new stuff and that means you can get a killer pair of Isabel Marant boots on sale for 70% off. Last year I saw a full-size Givenchy Nightengale bag on SSENSE.COM for $800 and almost lost it right then and there. Of course, by the time I'd clicked on the link, it was already sold out.
For this post, I've put together a list of my favourite pieces currently on mega sale! Word of advice, don't wait if you see something you like because inventory is low. Unless it says final sale, you can get a full refund so I say buy now and make up your mind later. Happy shopping!
