Something about me: I love a sale. But there are few that I'm as passionate about as Shopbop's semiannual Event of the Season sale. The reason? Besides the fact that Shopbop has so much amazing stuff, the best sales are those that include current-season pieces. Since the majority of Shopbop's inventory is currently 20% (for purchases under $500) to 25% (for purchases over $500) off, I'm looking forward to using it as an opportunity to invest in some pieces that I can wear for fall and winter this year and for years to come. But that doesn't mean I plan on spending tons of money.
For this sale edit, I chose 17 items that are practical by nature, many of which won't leave your bank account barren, and the ones that are on the pricier side are excellent investments. Keep scrolling to shop these practical items before the sale ends (on Friday!). Just remember to use the code STOCKUP19 at checkout.
I bought these. Care to join me?
Sam Edelman is really hitting the mark on the whole knee-boot thing.
I love this new colorway of Anine Bing's popular Madeline blazer.
I always forget to buy long-sleeve tees, so this cozy one is going straight into my cart.
Now is the time to take the plunge and buy this already affordable (and Kendall Jenner–approved) It bag.
The color and fit make it practical; the pearl makes it special.
I'm all for a pretty bra with Comfie in the name.
Don't forget to stock up on layering pieces.
These are the black jeans I'll be wearing for the duration of fall.
I'm obsessed with the way this looks tucked into high-waisted jeans.
It's rare that By Far anything is on sale, so now is the time to take advantage.
I can picture myself wearing this a lot on those fall days when it's a little too warm for a proper coat.
There's no need to overthink your jewelry choices when fall is busy enough. Just throw this on and go.
Marc Jacobs made the perfect timeless trench coat that you'll truly wear for years.
I can't stress enough to you how comfortable these leggings are.
Once you start traveling with this, you won't know how you ever lived without it.
It doesn't get more practical than these.
