While shopping around Chicago last July, I popped in Neiman Marcus who was having a major end of season sale. I ended up leaving with this gorgeous Carolina Herrera top and a pair of brown wool The Row pants, both on final sale! I love a statement piece as much as the next girl, but there’s something so satisfying about snagging a piece you know you’ll wear repeatedly and year after year at a discount. Unless you find a piece you know you can’t live without, the best time to shop designer staples is at the very end of the season when they’re beginning to push out product for the next season! More seasonal and trendy styles will go on sale before they mark down the more classic, staple styles, so that’s also something to keep in mind.

I spent a couple hours yesterday searching the sale sections of my favorite online stores to bring you the best of what’s marked down! Scroll through the widgets below to shop my favorite designer wardrobe staples that are heavily discounted – lots of great pants, shirts, dresses and more! The perfect building blocks for a timeless work-to-weekend wardrobe.
