There’s no such thing as a bad Sale shopping decision however, there’s always an opportunity to be more efficient with your choices. Here, our Content Manager Jessica shares five pieces of advice for navigating the Winter Sale…
So far we’ve barely scratched the surface of this new decade; it most definitely feels like a ‘clean slate’ moment and an ideal opportunity for reinvention. Try not to dwell on the 2010s and instead focus on embracing the new Twenties decade with a sense of freedom and determination to carve out a better version of you. There are several elements of your life that you could improve to kick start your new beginning – your wardrobe is a straightforward and simple place to commence. Planning a sartorial cleanse during the first few pages of your new diary is a must if you’re serious about rejuvenating your life in 2020. Keep the pieces that make you feel like you and recycle the rest. Then, fill in the gaps. What’s missing? Take these steps beforehand and you’ll approach the Winter Sale with a clear and cohesive shopping list to ensure you invest wisely. Your sale choices will have real purpose and naturally slot into your lifestyle rather than just complement it. If you’ve always desired to be the type of human who makes considered and careful purchases, now is your chance, start now.
The new decade comes with a new responsibility to live in a more environmentally-conscious manner. Sales allow you to acquire a higher quality piece for a better price so take it as an opportunity to invest in items that will last an incredibly long time rather than opting for short term fixes. This is without a doubt more environmentally-friendly as well as a savvy move for the health of your bank balance. The disposal of fashion is a major concern for the environment. This decade will see a rise in the traditional post-war mindset of make-do-and-mend, recycling pieces, investing in quality and taking care of your belongings for a long period of time. The slow consumerism movement is growing at a rapid pace; now is your chance to join it. In the Winter Sale, our leather pieces are handcrafted in Italy from full grain leather – they are certainly built to last, providing worthy investments for the decade ahead.
They say that old classics never die so they’re always a safe bet to invest in. If you’re afraid that you’re just partaking in the frenzy of Winter Sale season for the sake of it, purchasing a traditional and timeless piece will ease those prohibitions about not wearing it enough. It’s a common sartorial myth that classic dressing is dull however if you execute it correctly you can accomplish a look that will elevate you above the rest. Simple bread-and-butter style amalgamated from high-quality pieces is the key to style exuding class and intelligence. If you don’t believe us, just have a quick peruse of Johannes Huebl’s Instagram account. His polished aesthetic embraces old-school tailoring, holy grail cotton shirts and a neutral colour palette that feels fundamental yet incredibly effective.
Pondering is a complete waste of time in every life scenario but especially during Winter Sale season. Be confident in your ability to choose wisely and follow your first instincts. Life is most definitely too short to overthink a sale purchase. Give yourself additional brain capacity for the more important life decisions and keep things straightforward when it comes to Winter Sale shopping. Just like you would in a real brick-and-mortar shop take a walk, or in this case a scroll, around and see what catches your eye. The pieces you are first drawn to are always the ones worthy of investment. Set yourself a time limit for browsing as this will help you avoid any aimless wandering. Make a decision and stick to your guns – you can always return your pieces in our Winter Sale.
So, you’ve fallen in love with a piece in the Winter Sale. Step back for a moment and imagine five scenarios in which you would use this item in your daily life. Think about every aspect from the functional to the emotional. Then, build five outfits in your head that will complement this desired piece. If you can succeed in this activity with little effort then you should take it as a clear sign that it will valuably slot into your life with ease. The functional and emotional elements are important, however. A worthy piece should tick both boxes; it should make your heart skip a beat but also provide generously sized pockets for carrying around your daily belongings. As they say, it’s all about balance.
