I don't know about you, but by the time January rolls around, I'm all set in the boot department, and the only shoes I have my sights set on for the time being are chic flats—even better if they're designer and even better if they're discounted. Enter Italist, which is my go-to source for luxury brands such as Miu Miu, Saint Laurent, and Bottega Veneta.
If you're into luxury fashion and aren't yet familiar with Italist, you'll be glad you clicked into this story. Italist is a Los Angeles–based company that sells all the best designer brands at Italian retail prices. For us here in the U.S., that means an average of 30% to 40% off. On top of these organic discounts, the site offers free, fast shipping (usually directly from Italy) on every order. It's a beautiful business model that customers greatly benefit from. See why I'm obsessed with it? Not only that, but most of the designer items in question are current season.
I just did an Italist deep dive, and the site currently has a jaw-dropping number of designer It flats that I want. Keep scrolling to shop them along with me—fingers crossed our sizes are in stock.
