I'm Sale Shopping—Specifically These Items From Nordstrom, Vince, Zara, and A&F

The sales are quite epic this year. So yes, I'm shopping—a bit for myself, but mainly for those in my inner circle who have asked for recommendations. Basically, all of my favorite stores and labels have legit sales right now, but I'm very into the deals at Nordstrom, Vince, Zara, and Abercrombie & Fitch.
Below, I've rounded up all of the sale items I'm into and have sent them over to various friends and family members to consider. If you, too, are looking to add something fresh to your wardrobe to kick off the new year, you'll find everything from gorgeous outerwear to beautiful sweaters to elevated basics.
